Your first year teaching shouldn't mean planning alone

LessonReady walks new teachers through building lesson plans step by step, with the kind of guidance you'd get from a great mentor. Not another marketplace. Not another AI generator. Real mentorship, built into the process.

Guided Lesson Plan

9th Grade ELA: Introduction to Persuasive Writing

1
Set your learning objective (what students should know by the end)
2
Choose your hook (how you'll grab attention in the first 5 minutes)
3
Design the activity (guided practice with scaffolding)
4
Plan your assessment (how you'll know they got it)

"Try starting with a real-world example they care about. Persuasion is everywhere, let them see it first."

30%

of new teachers leave within 5 years

90%

of teacher demand comes from attrition

41%

of new teachers are observed by a mentor even once

Existing tools give you plans. They don't teach you how to plan.

Marketplaces overwhelm

Teachers Pay Teachers has 4 million resources. Great if you know what you're looking for. Paralyzing if you don't.

🤖

AI generates, but doesn't teach

AI lesson generators skip the thinking. New teachers need to build the planning muscle, not outsource it from day one.

📋

Planners assume you know how

Digital planbooks organize your schedule beautifully. They just assume you already know how to write a strong lesson.

🤝

Mentors are stretched thin

Most schools assign a mentor, but only half of new teachers have more than three real conversations with theirs all year.

Built by a Teacher, for Teachers

Created by someone who's been on both sides of the classroom door

LessonReady was built by a former English and special education teacher who now serves as an assistant principal. They've written the lesson plans, coached new teachers through their first year, and seen firsthand where the support gap lives. This isn't theory. It's experience.

Every new teacher deserves a great mentor

LessonReady is building the mentorship layer that new teachers need but rarely get. Because teaching well starts with planning well.
