- Example wording: “Completes tasks without reminders and reads fluently”
- Grades 5–8

Good, average or struggling student: facts instead of labels
A positive reference and one for a student facing difficulties are written the same way – through observable facts.
Label
- “Weak student, lazy”
- “Difficult child from a troubled family”
- “Hyperactive”
- “Star of the class”
Fact
- “Does maths tasks with a model to follow and does not always hand in homework”
- “Often late for the first lesson”
- “Finds it hard to sit still for long in lessons”
- “Prize-winner of the city olympiad, helps classmates”
Workplace reference letter for an employee
An employer writes it for a new job, for an award or at an organisation’s request. What matters is the position, length of service, duties and concrete results.
As required by the recipient
Length of service, duties, professional qualities. No judgments about personal life or health.
For an award
The main thing is results with figures and a contribution to the common cause over recent years.
For a performance review
How the employee copes with duties, what they have learned, what to develop further.
A message to parents and an invitation to a meeting
A class teacher or educator most often needs to write to parents: a notice, an invitation to a parents’ meeting, a reminder. Pick the occasion – an example appears on the right.
Dear parents of class 4B! We invite you to a parents’ meeting on [date] at [time], room [number]. We will discuss the end-of-quarter results, the excursion and the preparations for the celebration. Please confirm your attendance in the class chat.
Write an invitation to a parents’ meeting for the chat of class 4B: date, time and room in square brackets, three topics (end-of-quarter results, excursion, celebration), a request to confirm attendance. Polite, 4–5 sentences.

Frequently asked questions
How do I write a student reference from the class teacher?
Pick “For a student”, tick the sections – academic performance, behavior, interests – and add your observations. AI assembles the header, the introduction, a paragraph per section and a line about where the reference is issued.
Can I get a ready-made student reference without any notes?
You will get generic text that could fit anyone. Two or three real details – a club, an olympiad, a task in the class – make the reference genuine.
What must not be written in a reference?
Diagnoses, medical terms, judgments about the family and guesses about the reasons for behavior. Describe what is visible in lessons and at work – on request, AI will remove labels from the finished text.
How do I write a workplace reference for an employee?
Pick “From the workplace”, enter the position and tick length of service, duties, achievements. Dates and figures that are not in your notes are left by AI in square brackets.
How is a student reference for the military enlistment office different?
It usually says more about discipline, sport, public work and relations in the group. Pick “For the military enlistment office” – the sections adjust. Check the required format with the school.
Will AI write a message to parents or an invitation to a meeting?
Yes – in the “Message to parents” block, pick the occasion and the request goes to the chat. AI leaves dates and the room number in square brackets.
Is it free?
Yes. References and messages are text requests, and they are available on the Starter plan with 30 units of energy.
