Guide for English teachers

English teacher? Want more students without showing your face?

You can explain the difference between "I have been" and "I had been" in one minute flat. Here is how to get that skill in front of students who are scrolling: short videos with one English tip each, posted on YouTube Shorts, TikTok and Reels. No camera, no editor, no editing skills. This page gives you the prompt, 30 video ideas and a ready first script.

We get it

You're an English teacher, not a video editor. You don't need to become one.

You can spot a misplaced comma at ten paces and explain the difference between "few" and "a few" without thinking. But video probably felt like a different job: cameras, lights, timelines, cutting, captions, music. So it stayed on the "someday" list.

With jajavideo you write (or let AI write) what you want to say. That's it. The built-in director splits it into scenes, picks a visual for every sentence, adds a natural voice-over, music and animated captions. You don't need to be a good speaker or writer either. The prompt on this page writes the scripts from your teaching. You just check that the grammar and the examples are right.

Why video works for English teachers

Students scroll before they search. A 40-second video catches them first.

Most learners don't know what to search for. They don't know the name of the tense they're getting wrong. A short video shows them the mistake and the fix before they ever look for a teacher.

Show your teaching before the trial lesson

Someone who watched ten of your tips already knows how you explain things and whether they like your style. The trial lesson becomes a hello, not an audition.

You stand out in a crowded field

Thousands of English teachers have a profile page. Very few post useful short videos regularly. Specific tips, posted steadily, put you ahead of most of them.

Explain the invisible

Grammar is hard to see. A short that shows why "I am agree" doesn't work makes the value concrete for a student who never thought about it.

Practice what you teach

Videos give you more places to be found: YouTube, TikTok, Reels, your Google Business Profile and your own pages. That is visibility, which is your whole job.

  • Pasting one script, or many with AAA in Bulk
  • Asking Jaja to write a script for you
  • Choosing a language, voice and caption style
  • Downloading the finished vertical video

Step by step

From zero to a week of English videos in one sitting

Copy the English prompt below

Add your name, your city or market, and who your students are. Your details go straight into the prompt.

Paste it into Claude, ChatGPT or Gemini

You get 10 scripts, each teaching one specific English point, each opening with a hook and ending with your name.

Check the grammar like you'd check a student's essay

You're the expert. Fix anything that's wrong or not how you'd say it. Five minutes.

Paste all 10 into jajavideo's Bulk tab

Sign up free, open Bulk, paste. The AAA lines split them into 10 separate videos.

Pick a voice, press Generate, then post or schedule

Each video is a vertical MP4 for Shorts, TikTok, Reels and Facebook. Post them at your own pace, or schedule them on the platforms so one goes live each day while you teach.

The format

Plain text, a Title: line, AAA between scripts

No scenes, no visual directions. Just what should be said. This is exactly what you paste:

Paste into jajavideo → Bulk
Title: English tip: why "I am agree" is wrong
Have you ever said "I am agree"? It feels logical, because you are agreeing, right? But in English, agree is already a verb. You don't add am. You just say "I agree". The same happens with "I am agree with you" — it should be "I agree with you". Think of agree like "run" or "eat": you don't say "I am run", so don't say "I am agree". One small fix, and you sound more natural straight away. Want a free grammar check? Search Clear English with Anna on Google.

Copy, paste, done

The English prompt: 10 expert scripts in one go

Fill in your details. The prompt updates as you type. Copy it into any AI chat and paste the answer straight into jajavideo.

Prompt for Claude · ChatGPT · Gemini
You are an expert short-form video scriptwriter and an experienced English teacher. Write 10 scripts for faceless YouTube Shorts, TikTok and Reels for an English teacher.

About me:
- Name or school: [YOUR NAME OR SCHOOL]
- City or market: online, no specific city
- My ideal students: adult learners improving general English
- My focus: grammar and sentence structure
- Language of the scripts: English

Rules for every script:
1. Teach ONE specific, practical English point that my students can understand and use today. No generic ads like "Want to speak fluent English? Call me".
2. The first sentence is the hook: a common mistake, a myth, or a real question my students ask. It must keep the viewer watching past the first 3 seconds.
3. 90 to 130 words of flowing spoken narration (about 30 to 50 seconds). Plain language a learner understands, short sentences. No jargon without a one-line explanation. No scene directions, emojis, lists or headings.
4. Include one concrete detail: a number, a word, a phrase, a real situation.
5. Only tips that are accurate today. No guarantees of fluency, exam scores or results.
6. End with this sentence: "Want a free English check? Search [YOUR NAME OR SCHOOL] on Google.". Write any website as words, for example "example dot com".
7. Each script covers a different topic. Mix mistakes, myths, student questions, quick how-tos, pronunciation and vocabulary.

Format (follow exactly):
- Start each script with one line: Title: [topic]: [hook]. The title is not read aloud.
- Then the narration as one paragraph.
- After each script, a line that contains only AAA.

Output only the 10 scripts in this format, nothing before or after. I will paste them straight into jajavideo.

Need the next batch? Reply in the same chat: "Write 10 more, completely different tips."

Made with this prompt

Three real English videos, made on jajavideo

Each one is a single tip, a natural voice, a visual for every sentence and the credit at the end. Open a script to read exactly what was pasted.

Video 1 · Why "I am agree" is wrong

Read the script

Title: English tip: why "I am agree" is wrongHave you ever said "I am agree"? It feels logical, because you are agreeing, right? But in English, agree is already a verb. You don't add am. You just say "I agree". The same happens with "I am agree with you" — it should be "I agree with you". Think of agree like "run" or "eat": you don't say "I am run", so don't say "I am agree". One small fix, and you sound more natural straight away. Want a free grammar check? Search Clear English with Anna on Google.

Video 2 · The 3-second rule for present perfect

Read the script

Title: English tip: the 3-second rule for present perfectWhen do you use "I have done" and when do you use "I did"? Here is a quick way to decide. Ask yourself: is the time finished or still open? If the time is finished, use the past simple. "I watched that film yesterday." Yesterday is over. If the time is still open, use the present perfect. "I have watched that film three times." Your life is still going, so the number can still grow. The same works with "this week" and "last week". This week is still open: "I have sent five emails this week." Last week is finished: "I sent five emails last week." Try it in your next message. Want a free grammar check? Search Clear English with Anna on Google.

Video 3 · The small word that makes you sound polite

Read the script

Title: Business English: the small word that makes you sound politeIf you write "Send me the report" in an email, it can sound like an order. English has a small word that softens it: could. "Could you send me the report?" is the same request, but it sounds polite. You can also use "would" and "please". "Would you mind sending the report?" is even softer. This matters at work, where tone can change how people answer you. One small word, a very different email. Try it in your next message and notice the reply. Want a free email check?

Your teaching instinct applies here too

What makes a Short get watched

Think of it as a mini lesson. The title and first line are your board and your first question.

The first 3 seconds are your hook

Open with the mistake, the myth or the student question. If the first sentence doesn't earn the click to keep watching, nothing after it is seen.

Title as Topic: hook

"English tip: why 'I am agree' is wrong" tells the viewer and the platform exactly who it's for.

One point per video

Same rule as one grammar point per lesson. Three tips in 40 seconds means none sticks in the viewer's memory.

Help first, credit last

No "Want to speak fluent English? Call me!" openers. The tip earns attention. Your name in the last line earns the follow-up search.

Test like you test examples

Make the same tip with three different first sentences. Keep the hook that holds viewers and reuse that pattern.

More videos, more students who know you

You tell students fluency takes months. So does an audience. You don't have to post daily, but the more useful videos you put out, the more learners learn your name. Make a batch in one sitting and schedule them.

Think bigger

More than marketing: new ways to earn with video

When a finished video costs you a couple of minutes, video stops being a cost and becomes something you can sell.

Add "a video every day" to your lesson packages

Your students need practice between lessons, and most of them want video. Offer daily Shorts as an add-on: you write the tips with the prompt, jajavideo makes the videos, and you deliver them under your own brand. Commercial use is included on every plan, and on Unlimited you can put your own logo on the videos.

Example: 5 students × 20 videos a month = 100 videos
Your cost on Unlimited: $27 a month in total
Your price: whatever 20 videos a month is worth to your students

Video for your students' homework

Give students short videos to watch between lessons, a place where few of their other teachers post anything.

Turn every lesson into Shorts

Paste your lesson notes into the prompt and get five scripts from it. Same preparation, many more places to be found.

Win new markets in their language

Students abroad? Make their tips in Spanish, Japanese or Arabic. jajavideo speaks 74 languages, so you can offer what most teachers can't.

Trial lessons that sell themselves

Send a new student a short video explaining the top three things they need to work on. It's more memorable than a PDF and it shows your teaching in seconds.

Never made a video before? Start here

Every question a first-timer asks, answered

You've never edited a video and never used a system like this. That's fine. Most people who use jajavideo hadn't either. Pick any question below. Can't find yours? Ask Jaja, our agent.

Getting started

I have never edited a video in my life. Can I really do this?

Yes. You never open an editing program, never cut anything and never touch a timeline. You paste text into a box, pick a voice, and press Generate. jajavideo does every video step for you: it splits your text into scenes, picks a picture or clip for every sentence, records the voice-over, adds music and puts animated captions on screen. If you can copy and paste, you can make a video.

What exactly do I need before I start?

Three things: an email or Google account to sign up, a few sentences about an English teaching topic (or the prompt on this page to write them), and a few minutes. No camera, microphone, software, design skills or credit card.

How do I sign up?

Go to jajavideo.com and press "Continue with Google". It takes about 10 seconds. You can also sign up with an email address. No card is asked for.

What's the very first thing I should do after I sign up?

Make one test video before anything else. Open the dashboard, stay on the Single tab, and paste this:

Title: English tip: the difference between "I have been" and "I went"
Most learners mix up "I have been to London" and "I went to London", and the difference is simpler than it looks. Use "I went" when you say exactly when it happened, like last year or in 2019. Use "I have been" when the exact time doesn't matter and you only care that it happened at some point in your life. So you say "I went to London in 2019", but "I have been to London, so I know the weather". Try it with your own city this week. Want a clear plan for your English? Search Maple English Studio on Google.

Choose English and any voice, press Generate, and in a couple of minutes you'll see your first finished video. After that, everything else on this page will make sense.

How long until I have my first video?

Usually a couple of minutes per video. If many people are making videos at the same moment it can take a bit longer. You can close the tab: you'll get an email the moment it's ready.

Do I need to install anything?

No. Everything runs in your browser, on a computer or a phone.

Scripts: what the video says

What is a "script"?

Just the words the voice will say in the video. Nothing technical. For a 30–50 second video that's about 90–130 words, roughly one short paragraph.

I'm not a writer or a speaker. Who writes the scripts?

You don't have to. You have three easy options. One: copy the English-teaching prompt on this page into Claude, ChatGPT or Gemini, and it writes 10 scripts for you. Two: inside jajavideo, type one line like "a tip about the difference between make and do for Spanish speakers" and press ✨ Write script. Three: ask Jaja, the script assistant, for ideas in plain words. Your only job is to read the result and make sure the English is correct and the explanation is right.

What's the "Title:" line for?

It names your video so you can find it later. It is never read aloud and never shown in the video. Use the pattern Topic: hook, for example Title: English tip: why "I am agree" is always wrong.

Do I write anything about the pictures or scenes?

No. Write only what should be said. jajavideo's built-in director reads your sentences and chooses a matching visual for each one by itself.

How do I make people contact me at the end?

Make the last sentence your credit, for example "Search Maple English Studio on Google." The voice reads it out. If you mention a website, write it as words, "maple english dot com", so the voice says it correctly. Jaja can also add the ending for you if you tell it your website or phone number.

Can I fix a word or a sentence the AI wrote?

Of course. It's just text. Change anything before you paste it into jajavideo. If you notice a problem after the video is made, edit the text and make it again.

What if I run out of ideas?

Use the 30 ideas on this page, write down the questions your students ask you in class, or reply to the AI in the same chat: "Write 10 more, completely different tips." You can also paste one of your lesson plans and ask for five scripts based on it.

Bulk: many videos in one paste

What is Bulk, in simple words?

Bulk lets you paste several scripts at once and get a separate video for each one. Instead of making ten videos one by one, you paste ten scripts in one go and come back to ten finished videos.

How does jajavideo know where one video ends and the next starts?

Put a line with only AAA between scripts. Each script starts with its own Title: line. Here is a short example, 3 scripts that become 3 videos:

Title: English tip: say "I'm used to it", not "I use to it"
"I'm used to it" means it feels normal now. "I use to it" doesn't exist. Say "I'm used to getting up early", and add the verb with ing. Search Maple English Studio on Google.
AAA
Title: English tip: the small word that fixes your questions
Many learners say "Where you are from?" and it sounds off. Put the verb before the subject in questions: "Where are you from?" Same with "What do you do?" and "How long have you lived here?" Search Maple English Studio on Google.
AAA
Title: English myth: you must lose your accent
You don't need to lose your accent to be understood. Clear stress and rhythm matter far more than perfect sounds. Slow down on the important word and people will follow you. Search Maple English Studio on Google.

Real scripts should be longer (90–130 words), but that's the whole idea: Title, text, AAA, repeat.

Where do I paste them?

In the dashboard, click the Bulk tab (next to Single), paste everything into the big box, choose the language and voice, and press Generate. All videos use the same voice and caption style.

Do I have to write "AAA" myself?

No, if you use the prompt on this page. It already tells the AI to put AAA between scripts, so you copy the AI's answer and paste it as it is.

I forgot the AAA lines. What happens?

If each script starts with its own "Title:" line, jajavideo still splits them correctly. AAA is simply the safest way to be sure.

Can I mix languages in one Bulk paste?

It's best to paste one language at a time, so every video gets a voice that matches. Make the English batch, then the Spanish batch.

Where do I find all the videos afterwards?

On your Videos page. Each one appears as soon as it's ready, and you get an email when they're done. Download them any time within 30 days.

The video itself

Will my face or voice be in the video?

No. The videos are faceless: real images and short clips, a natural AI voice-over, music and captions. Nobody appears on camera, and you never record your voice.

Can I choose the voice and the captions?

Yes. Choose from 300+ natural voices in 74 languages, and from 5 caption styles: Classic, Karaoke, Word Pop, Box Highlight or Two-line.

What if I don't like how a video came out?

Press "Make it again — free". It's made again from the same script with fresh visuals, and it never counts against your free videos.

How long can a video be?

Shorts can run up to about 3 minutes of narration, but 30–60 seconds usually works best. The Unlimited + Long plan adds landscape YouTube videos up to 4 minutes.

What format is the video?

A vertical 1080×1920 MP4, the standard size for YouTube Shorts, TikTok, Instagram Reels and Facebook. Make it once, post it everywhere.

Will faceless videos make me look less professional?

Not when each video teaches one real, specific point of English. People judge a short by whether it was worth their time. A clear explanation of a common mistake, with your name at the end, reads as expertise.

Posting & scheduling

Do I have to post a video every day?

No. Post at the pace that suits you. The simple rule is: the more useful videos you put out, the more potential clients learn your name. Two or three a week is a fine start. Steady beats occasional bursts.

I don't have time to upload every day. What can I do?

Schedule them. Make a batch of videos in one sitting with Bulk, then use the scheduling tools that the platforms already give you for free, so one video goes live each day (or every other day) while you work.

  • YouTube: upload in YouTube Studio and choose "Schedule" instead of "Public", then pick the date and time.
  • Instagram and Facebook: Meta Business Suite lets you schedule Reels ahead of time.
  • TikTok: on the TikTok website you can set a future posting time when you upload.

One hour on Sunday can fill the whole week. Platform menus change from time to time, so look for the "Schedule" option when you upload.

Where should I post first?

Start with one platform you already use or where your clients are, often YouTube Shorts or Instagram. Once that's a habit, post the same videos on the others. They're already the right size.

What should I write in the description?

One or two sentences about the tip, your business name, and how to contact you. On YouTube, add a link to your website if your channel allows links.

Does jajavideo upload the videos for me?

No. You download each video and post it yourself, so you stay in control of your accounts.

Results

How soon will I get students from this?

Nobody can promise that, and we won't. Like language learning itself, video builds up over time. Give it a steady few months, look at which topics get watched, and make more like those.

How do I know what's working?

Each platform shows you views and how long people watched. Look for videos that keep people watching past the first few seconds, and repeat their topic and opening style.

My first videos got few views. Did I do something wrong?

Probably not. New accounts often start slowly while the platform learns who your videos are for. Keep posting, make your first sentence stronger, and keep each video to one clear point.

Do these videos help my students learn?

They give learners short, memorable reminders between lessons, and they can be embedded on your site or sent to students before class. No video replaces real practice, so don't promise fluency from a clip.

Clients & business

Can I make videos for my students and my school and charge for them?

Yes. Commercial use is included on every plan, so you can publish videos on your school's accounts and sell video as part of your course packages or corporate training offers.

Can I put my own logo on the videos?

Yes, on the Unlimited plans. Every video is watermark-free, or carries your own logo if you want it.

Can I make videos in my students' languages?

Yes, in 74 languages including right-to-left ones like Arabic, Persian and Urdu. Ask the prompt to write the explanation in that language, then pick a voice in the same language.

Free plan & price

Is it really free?

Yes. Every day you get 5 completely watermark-free videos, about 150 a month, with no card. After those 5, you can keep making videos with a small "Made with jajavideo" credit.

When do my 5 free videos reset?

Every day at 00:00 UTC.

Do failed videos or redos count?

No. Only finished videos count, and "Make it again" is always free.

What do the paid plans add?

Unlimited ($27/month): unlimited watermark-free videos, your own logo, priority in the queue. Unlimited + Long ($47/month): everything in Unlimited plus landscape videos up to 4 minutes. Both are monthly PayPal subscriptions you can cancel any time.
