# Workflow & best practices

> A typical week as a JustTalk teacher and the habits that lead to better student outcomes.

## A typical week

1. **Monday morning** — open the Dashboard, look at **Upcoming Lessons**, and skim [AI Student Insights](/knowledge-base/teacher-guide/ai-student-insights) for any student you're seeing this week.
2. **Before each lesson** — open the lesson, scan their Focus Set and last lesson's Mistakes/Grammar tabs.
3. **During the lesson** — teach inside the Live Lesson room. Mention the Focus Set words naturally.
4. **After the lesson** — click **Generate Summary** on the [lesson report](/knowledge-base/teacher-guide/lesson-reports), send the summary in [Messages](/knowledge-base/teacher-guide/messaging), and (optionally) assign a [JustTalk AI agent](/knowledge-base/teacher-guide/justtalk-ai) for them to practice with.
5. **End of week** — open **AI Student Insights** for each student and ask *"What should we work on next lesson?"*.

## Best practices

* **Always use the Invite Student flow.** Manual signups break the teacher-student link.
* **Keep your availability fresh.** Update it weekly; an empty calendar = no bookings.
* **Take 30 seconds to add a post-lesson note.** Future-you will thank you when prepping the next session.
* **Push students toward full-sentence answers.** It dramatically improves the AI's grammar and vocabulary analysis.
* **Assign one JustTalk AI agent per student per week.** Between-lesson practice closes the gap faster than any homework PDF.

## How JustTalk helps you stand out

* **Time saved.** You teach; the AI handles measurement, transcripts, and progress reports.
* **Targeted coaching.** Per-lesson Mistakes, Vocabulary, and Grammar tabs tell you exactly what to drill next.
* **Higher retention.** Students see their progress in concrete terms — CEFR words used, grammar structures unlocked, goals advanced — and stick around longer because of it.
