I love that I can connect with my student's parents with a quick text! Even if they do not have the app, it will still send them a regular text to their cellphone! I love that feature!

Being able to communicate with families in their home languages

With TalkingPoints, I am able to communicate effectively with my EL students' parents. I love that it sends messages in their primary language and they are able to respond in their primary language while TalkingPoints translates the messages for us. It also helps that it sends the messages as text as opposed to email, so they are seen and responded to much more quickly.
