Google has added its new AI model Gemini to its education tools to help students with writing. The update is part of Google’s effort to support learning in classrooms using smart technology. Teachers and students will now see Gemini features inside Google Docs and other Workspace for Education apps.

Gemini can suggest ways to improve sentences, fix grammar, and explain writing ideas in simple terms. It also helps students organize their thoughts before they start writing. The tool gives real-time feedback as students type, making it easier to learn and revise work on the spot.
The new features are designed to guide, not replace, student thinking. Google says Gemini will not write full essays for students. Instead, it offers hints and examples so learners can build their own skills. This approach aims to keep students in control of their work while getting useful support.
Schools using Google Workspace for Education will get access to these tools at no extra cost. Admins can turn the features on or off based on their classroom needs. Privacy remains a top priority. Google states that student data used with Gemini will not be saved or used for ads.
Teachers have tested the tools in early trials. Many say the writing help makes lessons more engaging and gives students confidence. Students report they feel less stuck when starting assignments and enjoy rewriting with instant suggestions.

Google plans to roll out the update widely over the next few weeks. The company worked with educators and child development experts to shape how Gemini works in schools. The goal is to make writing practice more helpful and less stressful for young learners.
