Ulearn is an app designed to streamline school operations and communication among students, teachers, parents, and faculty members. It enables...

students to access all class-related resources and submit homework, allows teachers to host online classes, provides parents with real-time grade updates and progress reports, and allows administrators to efficiently manage school-wide data, eliminating tedious and repetitive work. Our goal is to improve all aspects of school life for everyone - students, parents, teachers, administrators. For a better understanding of how Ulearn can benefit your school, read the feature descriptions below.

An LMS that Covers Everyone

Made for All

Everything Centralized

Run the entire school from one tool.

Ulearn brings users, courses, classes, schedules, attendance, homework, grades, report cards, and billing into one connected system, so directors and front desk stop jumping across spreadsheets, paper records, and group chats. When a parent walks in without warning, staff can pull up that student's full record immediately and respond with facts instead of "let me call you back." By replacing manual tracking with real-time data, your staff shift from reactive and burnt out to confident managers. Eliminating these operational bottlenecks doesn't just save time—it frees your team to focus on teaching quality and growth. When operations are efficient and parents see that your staff has it all together, your school naturally positions itself as higher-value and trustworthy.

Always On

Disruptions no longer break class continuity

Teachers can run in-person classes and make the same lessons available online at the same time, so absent students can still join with a login and click. If a student cannot attend live, class recordings are automatically uploaded to the correct class session right after class, without needing to manually send links to students. This gives schools a reliable operating model for sick days, typhoons, pandemics, travel, and scheduling conflicts. Students fall behind less, families request fewer refunds, and school operations stay stable when the unexpected happens.

Fast Grading

Reduce grading workload with an efficient system.

Ulearn supports both physical and online homework workflows. For physically turned in work, teachers or front desk can quickly record who submitted, score the work, and add feedback directly into the system. For homework submitted online, students upload files, submit photos, or record speaking homework in-app. All of it lands in a centralized grading queue where teachers and admins can share follow-up work instead of leaving one teacher overwhelmed. Speaking assignments also include AI analysis to speed follow-up and improve grading accuracy. Once grading and feedback is entered, report cards update immediately and parents can see results right away.

Automated Billing

Eliminate manual calculations, reduce errors, and cut billing stress

Invoices are automatically generated from real-time enrollment and schedule data, eliminating manual calculations and costly billing errors. Admins can apply percentage discounts with automatic recalculation, keeping everything accurate without extra work. Parents can view statements, payment history, and balances anytime, then pay online instantly. This transparency drastically reduces disputes and the time staff spend explaining charges — one of the highest-impact features for streamlining operations and easing stress for both administrators and families.

Collections

Prep a lesson once, re-use it anytime, anywhere.

Collections is the reusable lesson library. A teacher or administrator can build a lesson once, then apply it to future class sessions instead of rebuilding from zero every week. That lesson can include a teacher sample recording with auto-generated article transcription, which is intimately integrated with student homework. As teachers keep adding to Collections, the school builds a real curriculum repertoire that both teachers and admins can use. This reduces prep time, raises consistency across classes, and preserves high-quality lesson work instead of letting it disappear in personal folders.

Session Builder

Every class has it's own dynamic, interactive space.

Inside, teachers can publish custom lesson plans, attachments, homework, quizzes, and class comments that all live in one space that students and parents can access and interact with. Teachers can also pull in a Collections lesson and prep class with almost no added work. This keeps resources tied to the same class context, so students stop saying they could not find materials and teachers stop juggling multiple tools to run one lesson.

Class Control

Get parents involved without picking up the phone.

Without a reliable reporting channel to the parents, AKA the disciplinians, students get away with skipping homework and acting out because accountability doesn't follow them home. Ulearn changes that. Teachers can log a personal note about any student directly inside the class session — behavior, missing work, poor performance — and it appears in the parent dashboard immediately, along with all other student performance stats and report cards. When parents are always in the loop, students self-regulate, class order rises, teachers are no longer the sole enforcers, and they gain back the respect they deserve. The discipline burden lifts without adding any extra work.

Teaching Quality

Accountability raises the floor for every teacher in your school.

When admins can see how each class was prepped and parents can replay recordings of how lessons were actually delivered, quality stops depending entirely on who walks into the classroom that day. With ease of administrative oversight, teachers stay on schedule, lesson plans get published, homework gets assigned on time and assessed fairly, and follow-through becomes the consistent, and feedback is meaningful. The result is a school where outcomes are no longer a gamble based on which teacher a student gets. Consistent oversight brings every teacher closer to their best, and gives parents real confidence that the standard of care is institutional, not individual.

Structured Learning

Students perform better when everything is organized, accessible, and impossible to lose track of.

Ulearn gives students a centralized academic workspace where everything lives in the right place. From the moment they log in, students instantly see their personal academic snapshot: grades, outstanding homework, upcoming classes, and important updates. Every class session has its own dedicated space, all permanently organized by date and session. Homework and quiz pages provide a complete record of submissions, statuses, and performance, making progress fully transparent. Students always know what to do, where to find resources, and how to review past material without digging through folders, emails, or chat history. Nothing gets scattered across disconnected tools, which creates the structure that every other part of the learning system depends on.

Accountability

Students improve faster when expectations, progress, and unfinished work stay visible.

After a teacher assigns homework, it surfaces in the students' accounts automatically so nothing slips through the cracks. If a student needs to review before starting, they can navigate straight to the associated class session, re-watch the relevant part of the recording, and download any materials. Once student submits the assignment and a teacher scores and comments on the work, results land immediately in that student's personal report card. Over time, the record builds into a clear picture of habits, consistency, and growth that both the student and parent can see at a glance. Instead of feeling overwhelmed by scattered responsibilities, instantly see where they stand, and know exactly what to do next.

Beyond the Class

Most of what students need to truly excel happens between classes, not during them.

Ulearn turns that gap into structured, self-directed practice that compounds over time. Before attempting a recording assignment, students first hear the teacher's model recording, then record directly in-app. Ulearn's AI immediately evaluates the attempt, flags every mispronounced word, and requires the student to listen to the correct pronunciation for each missed word before trying again. Each interation will improve and by the final required attempt, the student delivers the article with accurate pronunciation built through guided repetition,without coaching every student individually outside of class. Students can tap any word to hear it, read its meaning, or mark their familiarity with it. Words they've mastered fade to gray in future articles, keeping attention on what still needs work. Over time, students can track how many words from standardized tests — TOEIC, IELTS, TOEFL, SAT — they already know, turning daily practice into a measurable long-term asset.

Online & Hybrid Learning

Missing class no longer means falling behind.

If a student misses class for any reason, the class can still be made accessible online. Teachers can run in-person lessons and live streams simultaneously, so absent students can join in real time with a login and a click. If they miss the live stream too, the recording is automatically uploaded to that student's class session — no manual sending, no chasing links, no asking classmates what was covered. Once they're back in their class notebook, everything is in context. The recording sits alongside the lesson plan, attachments, and any homework assigned that day, so students can review, catch up, and submit work without needing to reach out to anyone. Nothing falls through the cracks because nothing was ever lost. For schools, this isn't just a convenience feature — it's operational stability. Fewer make-up requests, fewer refund conversations, and fewer gaps in student progress that teachers have to patch in the following class. The school keeps running cleanly regardless of what disrupts the physical schedule, and families stay confident knowing their child's learning doesn't lag behind.

For Directors

When parents trust you, they stay, they pay, and they send you their friends.

Your real customers are parents — and what they're buying is confidence that their child is in good hands. When operations are efficient, teachers are consistently held to a high standard, and parents have transparent evidence of their child's progress, confidence is earned and sustained. When a student slips, the right people know early enough to intervene. Families who see consistent progress don't question tuition — they renew and they refer. Over time, that trust compounds into a reputation that attracts families who care most about standards, supports healthier tuition conversations, and positions your school as higher-value without ever needing to compete on price.

For Parents

You shouldn't have to wait for a PTA meeting to know how your child is doing.

Ulearn gives you a live window into your child's academic life — every homework grade, quiz result, attendance record, teacher comment, and report card update appears in your dashboard the moment it's entered. No calls to front desk, no waiting for scheduled updates, no vague reassurances. If your child is struggling, you find out early enough to do something about it. If they're excelling, you see exactly why. Beyond visibility, you can watch how each class was actually delivered through session recordings, see what was assigned, and track whether your child is keeping up with their responsibilities. The integrated learning tools — pronunciation drills, vocabulary practice, reading assignments, and quizzes — mean your child is building real skills between classes, not just showing up. When progress is this visible and the learning goes this deep, the value of the program speaks for itself. You stop wondering whether tuition is worth it, because the answer is in front of you every week.

For Students

When you log in, your whole academic life is organized and waiting.

Upcoming classes, outstanding homework, recent grades, and teacher feedback are all on your dashboard before you even go looking. Every class session has its own space — lesson plans, attachments, recordings, quizzes, and assignments all live there together, so you never have to dig through chat history or email threads to find what you need. If you missed class, the recording is already there. If you're unsure what was due, the homework tab tells you exactly where you stand. Submitting work is just as simple — upload a file, a photo, or record directly in-app, and your grade appears in your report card the moment it's marked. The learning tools go further than any class can on their own: tap any word in an article to hear it, read its meaning, and track whether you know it. Recording assignments train your pronunciation attempt by attempt, with AI feedback that gets more precise each round until the final take is clean. Over time you build a record of your own growth — words mastered, assignments completed, scores improving — and that record belongs to you.

For Teachers

Less admin, more teaching, and a direct line to the enforcers who make students show up prepared.

Everything your class needs lives in one session page — lesson plans, attachments, homework, quizzes, and comments, all posted once and accessible to every student immediately. Pull a lesson from Collections and class prep takes minutes instead of an hour. Homework flows from assignment to submission to grading queue without any chasing — online submissions are reviewed in-app, AI analysis handles the heavy lifting on speaking assignments, and late or missing work is flagged automatically. When a student needs to be held accountable, one note logged in the session goes straight to the parent dashboard. No phone calls, no meetings, no confrontations in class. Parents see it, students know they'll see it, and behavior shifts accordingly. Your lesson recordings, class prep, and grading are all visible to admins, which means the quality of your work is recognized — and the standard across the school rises because everyone is working in the same system.

Our Story

Ulearn begun from the challenges faced by Bethany Learning Center, our family-run buxiban in the Daan District of Taipei. Leading its development is Todd Sherrill, a former Apple software engineer with over 30 years of experience, who saw the need for a smarter, more efficient way for schools to manage learning and communication.

The earliest step toward Ulearn came when Andrew Sherrill, an English teacher at the school, created a Google Sheets tool that tracked homework, quiz grades, and attendance, then automatically compiled the data into detailed reports for parents. This simple tool improved transparency and accountability, but it also revealed the need for a more comprehensive solution.

Recognizing this, Todd committed himself full-time to building Ulearn. With Director Bethany Sherrill's (李秀梅) full support, and years of feedback from teachers, students, and parents, Ulearn was refined into a robust and reliable platform, carefully tailored to the needs of a modern school.

When COVID-19 disrupted education across Taiwan, Bethany Learning Center was already prepared. Ulearn’s features for schedules, homework, and communication made the shift to online learning seamless, requiring only the addition of virtual class functionality. Even after returning to in-person teaching, the school continued using hybrid features such as virtual attendance and recorded lessons, improving both efficiency and student engagement.

Today, Ulearn is a versatile, in-house-developed platform shaped by real classroom experience. Unlike outsourced systems, it was built from firsthand needs, combining Todd’s engineering expertise with the day-to-day realities of teaching. Now available as a multi-tenant web application, Ulearn offers schools the same level of transparency, accountability, and resilience that has transformed Bethany Learning Center.

Now available as a multi-tenant web application, Ulearn can offer the same level of support and success to your school as it has offered us.
