Как я готовлюсь к сентябрю: что делаю заранее, чтобы потом не утонуть в работе
Main summary
Key takeaways
Key idea: prep for September in advance (not in a last-minute rush)
- Every year, teachers/tutors get overwhelmed by tasks around September 1 (schedules, homework, materials, classroom decor, etc.).
- Instead of trying to do everything at the end of August, prepare what will be useful during the school year ahead of time.
1) Reorganize and reuse your existing materials (don’t reinvent everything)
- Go through accumulated materials from previous year(s).
- Sort them so you can quickly find what you need (presentations, programs/templates, worksheets).
- Give materials clear names and place them into folders (e.g., preschool, elementary, templates/programs).
- Rather than creating tons of brand-new resources right before classes:
- reuse existing lessons and presentations
- combine pieces (e.g., take a few slides and adapt)
- update details (e.g., keep the same structure, change themes/characters)
2) Pre-build “September-ready” teaching assets
- Select and organize materials you’ll need for the start of the year (September–November).
- Prepare diagnostics in template form:
- have one diagnostic presentation/template ready for trial lessons and student evaluation
- use only the relevant slides during the lesson to assess what the student can/can’t do
- avoid creating a new trial lesson from scratch each time
- Prepare seasonal/autumn-themed materials in advance because:
- students enjoy atmospheric learning activities
- it reduces workload during the first two weeks of September
- Build a set of universal games/templates that can be adapted to different student levels after vacations.
3) Use artificial intelligence to save time (with proper input)
AI is used not as a “magic button,” but to handle large creative/production tasks faster.
The speaker uses AI to:
- generate lesson plots and character ideas
- suggest plot variations and development branches
- create images/characters and even videos
- support creation of text and assignments for niche themes
Key approach:
- you still need to know how to write good prompts/inputs
- provide enough context so the output matches your educational goals and methodology
- adapt AI output for each student and for the tools/workflows you’re using
4) Worksheets as a universal lesson tool (and how to make them with AI)
Worksheets can be used for many purposes:
- new topics
- review/repetition
- diagnostics
- homework
- reinforcement and practice
- in-class warmups/games (e.g., word search, Sudoku-type tasks, fill-in blanks)
The speaker maintains a folder of printable/offline worksheets with consistent style (unified character/color scheme).
If pre-made worksheets don’t fit your needs:
- generate customized worksheets using AI/neural networks
Important warning about AI-made worksheets:
- you can’t just request “create a worksheet”
- you must provide the topic and detailed requirements so the worksheet is methodologically correct and purposeful
Learning offer / next steps mentioned
- There’s a master class: “How to Create a Worksheet Using Artificial Intelligence in 5 Minutes” (recorded).
- It covers the full process:
- ideas → prompts → AI use → game/story format → layout → getting the worksheet you imagined
Mindset takeaway: do a few high-impact things, not everything
- Don’t aim for perfect prep of everything in the last days.
- Ask what you can do now to make September easier, such as:
- preparing a few lessons
- creating reusable templates for the first week
- preparing worksheets/design
- learning how to use AI to speed up prep
- For some people, “prepping for September” also includes resting and regaining energy at the end of summer.
