There’s no one who has worked harder or been more creative in exploring ways to harness Artificial Intelligence to support English Language Learners than Svetlana Kandybovich.

I have blogged about her AI work, and her other ELL support resources, countless times.

Now, she’s brought a few of her best free AI tools for teachers together in one place, called My AI Toolkit: Studio.

She has collected even more of her AI tools at AI Tools For ELT.

You can read her explanation of it here.

It’s a great resource, but it’s really just a drop in the bucket of the resources she’s created.  You can explore more on her blog and learn more through some of my past posts about her work.

I’m adding this info to THE BEST POSTS ABOUT USING ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE WITH ELLS.

I started the blog years ago to support my first book, Building Parent Engagement In Schools.
