SmartClass+ Language Teaching Platform

SmartClass+ is a world class, language teaching, digital technology platform.

SmartClass+ helps teachers improve their students’ speaking and listening skills, by running classroom activities (e.g. language lab) and self-access activities (language learning center) that challenge and motivate their students.

SmartClass+ provides teachers with complete language class management capabilities.

SmartClass+ also helps motivate students and focus student attention in a technology-rich “smart class” or “smart classroom” environment that may include BYOD (Bring Your Own Device) and/or one-to-one programs.

This modern language teaching solution is used by foreign language departments, (e.g. MFL), world language departments, second language departments (e.g. ESL) and by sign language departments (e.g. ASL).  The SmartClass+ platform can be used for teaching any combination of domestic and foreign languages.

We are proud to be able to share a few comments from outstanding educators who are using our solutions on a day-to-day basis, and who have taken the care and the time to record their experiences with Robotel personnel and Robotel products.   We thank these clients for their enthusiasm and kind words.

Here are just a few examples of the feedback that our clients are providing:

TFS – Canada’s International School

I recommend Robotel systems for language class delivering.  At the Toronto French School, we started using this software and technology in March 2013 when we decided to update our old recording system of cassettes and radios in our Language Lab and Resource Center.  After searching the market for nearly three months, comparing and testing different audio systems, Robotel software was best for our needs.  Other digital systems were difficult to understand and follow, while Robotel is a hands-on, easy to use, and practical system – not to mention at a very competitive price.

Hightstown High School

Robotel is a great way to enable the students to practice their auditory, comprehension and speaking skills. The [SmartClass+] program allows the teacher to pair students so that they can work together, and for the teacher to listen and chat with them as well. There are so many components to this program that just about anything that would help to ameliorate the skills of the student can be found through Robotel.

Springfield Clark Career Technology Center

I have been using SmartClass for three years now and it has changed the way I teach and the way my students learn. Teaching today’s high school students can be extremely difficult because they want everything now. With the SmartClass software, I am able to provide almost a 1-on-1 type atmosphere in my classroom. The comprehension is faster and the lectures are shorter. I would never want to teach anything on or about computers without the use of the SmartClass software.

Saigon University

As a teacher who is always trying to bring the best learning experience to my students, SmartClass+ is my good companion because of its simple but powerful tools in creating rich, interesting lessons. The pairing/group activity function has provided every student chances to raise their voice and to be heard in every lesson. With SmartClass+, my students are now becoming more engaged, more encouraged, more excited to speak up.

Institute Universitaire de Technologie Cergy-Pontoise

I highly recommend the Robotel SmartClass+ language lab software, which we have been using for several years at our college.  This past year, I had the pleasure to use the system for the first time.   The system is very easy to learn, and I was both comfortable and productive after only 2 hours of training!   The user interface is simple and effective. My students find it instinctive and benefit both from working together in pairs or triples, and from working independently – each at his own speed.

The Robotel team is professional and works very closely with their clients.  Their support and availability has been very effective in helping me to become a proficient system user.
