Before
Sara attends school meetings but often feels uncertain about how to respond. Important discussions happen quickly, and she leaves the meeting with unanswered questions.
AI simulation for school decision conversations
Preparing migrant parents for critical school meetings in the Dutch education system through AI-powered conversation simulations.
Helping parents confidently navigate school discussions such as:
- Parent–teacher meetings
- School advice (VMBO / HAVO / VWO)
- Language support decisions
A common situation in Dutch schools
Every year, thousands of migrant parents attend meetings with teachers in Dutch schools. These conversations often involve important decisions about their children’s future.
However, many parents feel unprepared to fully understand the discussion or confidently participate in the conversation.
30–50%
of students in many urban Dutch schools come from migrant families.
In the Netherlands, millions of families have a migration background. However, communication between schools and parents often breaks down.
Key issues
- Important feedback may not be fully understood
- Parents may feel uncomfortable asking questions
- Critical school decisions may be accepted without discussion
Result: Children may receive less support and less informed educational decisions.
Language classes improve grammar — but they do not prepare parents for high-stakes school conversations.
Meet Sara
Situation
- Sara speaks Dutch at an intermediate level (B1)
- She attends school meetings and reads school emails
- During meetings, teachers discuss learning progress, school advice, or additional support.
Challenges
- She has no preparation for how school meetings usually unfold
- She does not know what questions teachers might ask
- She is unsure what questions she should ask in return
- She needs time to process information but the conversation moves quickly
- Important decisions may happen before she feels ready to respond
An AI-powered simulation platform that helps migrant parents prepare for real school meetings.
Parents practice realistic conversations with an AI teacher before the actual meeting.
How it works
-
1
Choose a school scenario
Parent–teacher meeting, school advice, or a support discussion.
-
2
Practice the conversation
Talk it through with an AI teacher before the real meeting.
-
3
Receive feedback
Get suggestions on how to respond confidently.
Parents enter school meetings better prepared, more confident, and able to ask the right questions.
Try it with Sara’s scenario
After
Before the meeting, Sara practices a simulated conversation with an AI teacher. She enters prepared and confident: she asks questions, clarifies important points and takes part in decisions about her child’s education.
Better communication between parents and schools leads to better educational decisions for children.
Better educational outcomes through parent preparedness
When migrant parents are prepared for real school conversations, the impact extends beyond communication.

Lexora transforms language learning into real institutional participation, strengthening long-term educational equity.
More than practice
Understand what the school tells you — in your own language
Practising prepares you for the meeting. Lexora also explains the school report your child brings home, and turns a real meeting into clear notes you can keep.
School reports
Your child’s report, explained
Upload the rapport as a PDF or a photo. Lexora reads the grades and the teacher’s comments and tells you, in plain words, how your child is really doing.
- How your child is doing, subject by subject
- Strengths and areas to grow
- Concrete advice for at home
- Questions in Dutch to ask the teacher
- The Dutch school words in the report, explained
Meeting notes
After the meeting: clear notes you can keep
Record the conversation (ask the teacher first), upload the meeting report, or type what you remember. Lexora writes a summary in your language.
- A short summary of what was discussed
- What was decided
- Who does what, and when you talk again
- Questions to ask next time
Teachers on Lexora can share reports and meeting notes with you directly. They appear in your profile marked as new, and you can switch every explanation to another language. Made by AI — for important decisions, always talk to the school.
Institutional Conversation Simulation
Lexora introduces a new category of AI interaction. Instead of teaching language alone, the platform prepares users for real decision-making conversations with institutions.

Do I need to speak Dutch well to use Lexora?
No. You choose your level (A2, B1 or B2) and the AI teacher speaks Dutch the way a real teacher would at that level. You can answer in Dutch, English, Turkish or Arabic, and every line is translated for you.
Which school meetings can I practise?
The report meeting, the school advice for secondary school, a meeting about extra support, and a conversation about bullying. After each practice you get a readiness score and Dutch phrases for the real meeting.
How does Lexora explain my child’s school report?
Upload the report as a PDF or photo. Lexora explains it in your language: how your child is doing, strengths, areas to grow, advice for home, and questions you can ask the teacher. The explanation is made by AI, so always check important decisions with the school.
Can Lexora help me after a school meeting?
Yes. Record the meeting (ask the teacher first), upload the meeting report, or type your notes. Lexora writes a summary in your language with what was decided, who does what, and questions for next time.
Can my child’s teacher use Lexora too?
Yes. Teachers create an educator account and share a link code. After you link, you can message each other in Lexora, and the teacher can share reports and meeting notes that you see explained in your own language.
Does Lexora replace an interpreter?
No. Lexora helps you prepare and understand, but it is not an interpreter in the meeting. If you need one, ask the school whether an interpreter can join.
What happens to my data?
Your reports, recordings and messages are only visible to you and the teachers you link with. You can download everything or delete your account at any time from your profile.
