WHY MAGISTER DESK

Less admin. More teaching.

Most teachers organize their work using many different tools. Here is what that costs, and what changes.

Your work is scattered

Questions in one app, assignments by email, oral exams over video calls, grades in a spreadsheet. Every result gets copied at least once.

With Magister Desk

Courses, students, questions, assessments, assignments and grades share the same workspace. Nothing needs re-typing.

Grading consumes your evenings

Every open answer needs reading. Every live oral exam needs its own appointment.

With Magister Desk

Multiple choice and short answers grade themselves on submit. For open answers you can ask AI for a suggested grade. Oral recordings wait until you have time. Rather than listening to them, you can just transcribe and read it faster than listen

Online assessments are easy to cheat

A second tab, a group chat, a pasted answer. Without some guard rails an online assessment stops checking real students' knowledge.

With Magister Desk

Switch proctoring on for the assessments: the assessment takes over the screen, pasting is blocked, every time a student leaves the page is noted, and you see how many violations they get.

Averages hide the real problem

A class average will not tell you which question tripped everyone up, or which wrong answer they all picked.

With Magister Desk

Question analysis ranks questions by success rate and shows exactly which answers your students chose and which questions were the hardest.

Oral exams

Magister reads your questions aloud. Students record. You grade from the recording and transcript.

WHO IT'S FOR

Built for teachers who run their own classes

School, university, private tuition, exam prep. If you set the work and mark it yourself, this is for you.

  • Language teachers

    Hear every student speak, without twenty separate calls.

    Set a speaking task, let Magister ask the questions, and listen back at your own pace. Transcripts help you check vocabulary and structure fast.

    Oral exams
  • University lecturers

    Two hundred students, the same exam, and they cannot copy from one another.

    Draw each assessment from a question pool so each student sees a different mix of the questions, and proctor it. Auto-grade the fixed answers, then read the open answers and get a suggested grade based on your own grading approach.

    Assessments & proctoring
  • Tutors and exam prep

    Assignments in, feedback out, progress visible to the student.

    Set the task with reference files, collect drafts and submissions, grade with comments. Each student sees their own results and your remarks.

    Gradebook
  • Maths and science

    Proper notation, on both sides of the screen.

    Write questions and answer options in proper mathematical notation. Fractions, integrals, matrices and chemistry or physics formulas look perfectly formatted for you and for your students.

    Question bank

TRUST

Safe to use

You are about to upload student names, grades and voice recordings. Here is what happens to them, and how we make it reliable.

  • Your students’ data is yours

    We never sell it, never show ads, and never use your material or your students’ work to train AI.

    Stored and sent in scrambled form nobody can read without the key; files open through private links that expire.

  • Nobody sees what they shouldn’t

    Students only see the courses you invited them to and their own results. Other teachers never see your work.

    Students join by invitation only, and every request to see something is checked.

  • Proctoring without surveillance

    The assessment takes over the screen, pasting is blocked, leaving the page is noted. No screen recording, no profiling of students.

    The microphone is used only when a student records a spoken answer, and only after they give permission.

  • Nothing gets lost

    Grades, recordings and files are backed up automatically and can be restored to any point in time. Student work cannot be deleted by a teacher, and students keep access to their own results.

    Continuous automatic backups that can restore any moment; a student’s submitted work is only ever removed at the student’s own request.

FAQ

Things teachers frequently ask

Six quick ones. The full FAQ goes deeper on every area.

An online assessment and grading tool for teachers. You set up your courses, invite your students, build a question bank, run written assessments and spoken exams, collect assignments, grade it all, and keep the results in a gradebook your students can see too.

Yes. Questions, answer options and materials can include proper mathematical notation, written the way maths teachers already write it. Fractions, limits, integrals, chemical and physics formulas display properly for you and your students.

No. Proctoring can make the assessment take over the whole screen, stop students pasting in answers, and note each time they leave the assessment page. It never records what is on their screen.

You write the questions. Magister reads each one aloud to the student, who gets a moment to think, records an answer and moves on. Later, you play the recordings, read the transcripts and score them. You never have to be in the room.

No. It offers a suggested grade with its reasoning for open answers, and only when you ask. You decide the final grade on every answer.

Yes. Every new teacher account starts with a free 30-day trial. No credit card needed.
