Tímea teaches chemistry, physics, and integrated science to students in grades 7–12 at a digital secondary school (gimnázium) in Hungary, where students have learned with laptops and Microsoft 365 since 2018. Alongside teaching, she is the school’s instructional designer, holds postgraduate qualifications in digital learning-content development and mental health, and is a master teacher who built her master-teacher program on Redmenta.
Tímea loves the classroom, she says “teaching is where I recover” and wants every lesson to include experiments, discovery, and interactive tasks rather than dry chalk-and-talk. But going digital came at a cost: building a digital workbook for every lesson from grade 7 to grade 12 took three to four years, with at least four to five hours of preparation every afternoon. Science-specific needs added friction too: without subscripts and superscripts, she had to switch to other tools or teach students workarounds like writing cubic centimetres as “CM3.”
Redmenta is now built into Tímea’s everyday teaching and her school’s Teams and OneNote setup. For her master-teacher program, she created around 108 intermediate-level and close to 50 advanced-level school-leaving exam test sets, covering single topics, whole school years, and full mock exams. Her advanced-course students complete test sets at home, so class time goes to the questions they got wrong. When exam supervision keeps her out of class, she builds teacher-guided digital lessons with embedded videos and questions that students can work through on their own. Close to 20 teachers are on the school subscription, and Tímea gives new colleagues quick crash courses. She doesn’t pitch it. She shows them what they could use it for in their own subject. She also finds Redmenta’s AI more reliable than general chatbots for building worksheets, and says it has clearly improved over the years.
“It lets you create an exceptionally varied range of activities — even with minimal creativity, you’ll find inspiration. And with the AI, you get a foundation you can shape to your own taste. You can always find a way it helps your work.”
