AI agent for language teachers
Reading Text Leveling Agent
Texts at the right level with meaning kept
What it does
Authentic texts like news articles motivate language learners but are often above their level, and simplifying them by hand takes time. This agent takes a text and a target level. It checks vocabulary against level word lists and measures sentence length and structure. It rewrites the hardest parts in simpler language while keeping the meaning. It then checks the result again and repeats until the text fits the level. Words that must stay, like names or key topic terms, are kept and added to a glossary. The teacher reviews and approves the final text before students see it. Edge case: if a text cannot be leveled without losing its meaning, it says so and suggests a shorter extract instead.
How it works
Follow the arrows from top to bottom. The orange dashed arrow is the loop: when a check fails, the agent goes back and tries again.
