Learner Voices

Excerpts from 80 university students who used the program

University Student A

Even as someone just starting paragraph writing, I could work on writing in a relaxed state. … Even though writing isn’t my strength, I enjoyed learning how to structure pieces, what to write, and in what order, so I would recommend it to others who also feel hesitant about writing.

University Student B

I’m really bad at structuring sentences, so I’m thrilled that an app like this exists. … Compared to ChatGPT, it feels like there’s less AI and more emphasis on thinking for yourself, so I feel okay using this kind of AI app a lot (for studying).

University Student C

The hamburger structure—topic sentence, evidence, and concluding sentence—was clearly explained. Hints helped when I got stuck, and sample texts after finishing helped me see areas to improve. …It’s very easy to use, and I want to keep using it for writing going forward.
