About the TeachBuySell teaching tools directory
This is a curated directory of teaching tools for Australian educators — built by teachers, for teachers. Every tool on the site is reviewed for classroom fit, alignment to the Australian Curriculum v9.0 (and state-specific adaptations used in NSW, Victoria, Queensland, South Australia, Western Australia, Tasmania, ACT and NT), and practical usefulness in a real lesson. We include apps for primary and secondary classrooms, early childhood settings, special education, and tools that speech pathologists, occupational therapists, and allied-health staff use in schools.
Tools are organised two ways. By category — maths, reading and literacy, writing and spelling, STEM and coding, assessment, classroom management, wellbeing and SEL, parent communication, early years, and autism and special-needs support. By audience — primary teachers, early childhood educators, special educators, relief and casual teachers, parents and homeschoolers, and speech pathologists and OTs. Use either entry point depending on whether you're browsing by what you teach or who you teach.
We prioritise free and freemium tools where they exist, and we flag paid pricing clearly in AUD when it doesn't. Print-ready PDFs, Australian-curriculum alignment, zero-account-required usage, and school-network friendliness all get surfaced on the tool card. Where a tool has been co-designed with or reviewed by Australian-registered educators and clinicians, we call that out. The directory is updated regularly as teachers submit new tools and review existing ones.
