I love this extension. It took a little bit of time to figure it out, but once I did, I cut my grading time in half, and as a high school teacher grading a hundred essays, that really adds up. I mostly use my own customized comments for a Spanish for Native Speakers class. I also lead workshops to support new and veteran teachers, and while I really don't like talking about paid/commercial products, I never hesitate to bring up this tool. It's helped my workflow immensely, and more importantly, it helps my students, many of whom a recent immigrants.

This is generally fine and has been very useful in the past, but has now ceased to function in google docs. It just doesn't load :(

This is a great extension. For me as a teacher it works perfectly. It´s easy to use and after having created your own comments, you can use it for many (all?) subjects. Some months ago I had some problem. I contacted the team and I got very quick support althouht it was at a Saturday! (Tt showed up that it was due to a google update). I really would recommand this program and I am very happy that I found out about this addon.
