Hillsborough High School is an International Baccalaureate school located in Tampa, Florida. The school has been named one of America's best high schools by Newsweek three years in a row. A drafting teacher at the school wrote a letter praising the EasyTeach remote teaching software designed by Just Add Power. The teacher says EasyTeach allows them to lock students out of their computers during instruction, which cuts their group instruction time in half and allows students to focus on demonstrations. The teacher also says EasyTeach has helped their ESE technology class, which previously struggled with AutoCAD, to now perform at the level of regular classes. The teacher concludes they could not imagine teaching computer skills without EasyTeach.
