Teacher guide
Plan with Claude or ChatGPT
Connect Chatterbox to the AI assistant you already use. Describe a lesson, and it builds the set, writes the exercises, assigns the homework and tells you how the class did.
Connect your assistant
It takes about a minute, using the same Chatterbox account you use in the web app. Everyone uses the same connector address:
https://mcp.chatterboxlabs.io/mcp
- Claude: Settings → Connectors → Add custom connector, name it Chatterbox, paste the address and select Connect.
- ChatGPT: Settings → Apps & Connectors → Create, paste the address and choose OAuth. Adding your own connector may first need Developer mode, under Advanced settings.
When a Chatterbox page opens, sign in and allow access. Your assistant never sees your password. Full steps, including other assistants, are on Chatterbox for AI assistants.
Things to ask
- “Create a Spanish 2 class called Period 3 and give me the join code.”
- “Build a lesson on food and restaurant vocabulary for Period 3: 15 words with example sentences, plus fill-in-the-blank and a short conversation.”
- “Here's my word list for unit 4. Make it a Chatterbox set with example sentences.”
- “Design an interactive activity where students label a family tree in Spanish, and add it to my family set.”
- “Assign the food set to Period 3 as homework due Friday, with matching, multiple choice and the conversation.”
- “How is Period 3 doing on the food homework? Who hasn't started, and which words should I reteach?”
What an assistant adds
Everything an assistant makes appears in the web app and on phones straight away. The web app builds a complete set on its own; an assistant lets you shape it exactly:
- write the exact sentences, conversations and reading passages you want, tied to your unit and grammar point;
- design custom interactive activities for your lesson, such as a family tree to label or a market to haggle in, whose answers Chatterbox checks;
- plan a whole lesson, assign it and check results in one conversation.
Before it deletes anything or removes a student, your assistant asks you first. It sees your students by display name only, never their email addresses.
