Hi everyone!
I’m Tomohisa, a former middle school English teacher from Japan.
During my years teaching, I loved using technology in the classroom. But I also realized something:
Paper worksheets and tests still have a lot of value.
Students can think while writing, review materials at a glance, and use them anywhere without worrying about devices.
The problem was creating those materials.
Teachers spend countless hours creating worksheets — writing questions, formatting layouts, making answer sheets, adjusting difficulty levels, and preparing different versions.
I kept wondering:
“Why does creating teaching materials take so much time?”
So I started building Sheeto.
Sheeto is an AI-powered worksheet creator that helps teachers create printable worksheets through conversation with AI.
You can:
Generate worksheets from your ideas or reference materials
Create multiple-choice, fill-in-the-blank, and written response questions
Edit each part easily
Export classroom-ready PDFs
I’m currently building Sheeto as a solo founder and sharing the journey here.
I’d love to hear from teachers, educators, and anyone interested in AI tools for education.
What parts of creating teaching materials take the most time for you?
Coming from teaching, you're solving a problem you've experienced instead of one you've imagined.
That doesn't guarantee product-market fit, but it usually leads to much better questions about what actually deserves to be automated.
Thanks, I appreciate that perspective.
That’s exactly the problem I’m trying to explore. As a teacher, I felt there was a lot of “invisible work” around creating materials beyond just writing questions.
Still figuring out what should and shouldn’t be automated, but conversations with educators are helping me shape the product.
Thanks for sharing that. I'd enjoy continuing the conversation outside the thread if you're open to it. What's the best email to reach you on?
Thanks for sharing your thoughts.
I agree that building from personal experience helps identify problems worth solving.
I'm still learning from conversations with teachers and educators as I develop Sheeto.
I appreciate you sharing that.
I'd still prefer to continue this by email rather than over a long comment thread. If you're open to it, what's the best email to reach you on?
