About LectaMe
LectaMe is a Dutch digital learning environment for MBO and HBO that connects teachers, students and workplace mentors: from lesson design and assessment to learning goals, portfolio and work-based learning.
Patrick Rambaldo
Teacher & founder of LectaMeLinkedIn
LectaMe was built from inside the classroom. Patrick is a teacher with years of experience in practice-oriented education in MBO and HBO. He saw how fellow teachers spent hours every week putting lessons together — first building slides in PowerPoint, then making separate quizzes in Kahoot or Mentimeter, and on top of that still differentiating for different levels.
LectaMe is his answer to that problem. One tool that combines everything teachers and trainers need: AI-generated lessons based on didactic principles, layered slides for differentiation (layered teaching), and live participant interaction without students having to create an account.
His expertise lies at the intersection of didactics (constructive alignment, scaffolding, blended learning) and how to apply technology without undermining the pedagogy. LectaMe is not an "AI presentation tool" — it is a tool for teaching that happens to use AI to take away the tedious preparation.
Why we build this
Education happens in many places at once: in the lesson, at home while practising, in assignments and assessments, in guidance conversations and in the workplace. At most schools, these places live in separate systems, and the student has to make the connection themselves.
LectaMe brings them together in one digital learning environment. It started with the Presentation studio, because lesson preparation takes too much time. Assignments, assessments, practice modules, learning goals, a portfolio and a practice environment were added after that. AI takes over preparatory work and makes suggestions; decisions about learning and assessment stay with teachers and workplace mentors.
From empty slide to layers
No slides. Layers. Go deeper.
LectaMe was born where presentation prep hurts most: evenings that stretch late, blank PowerPoint slides waiting to be filled, quiz questions and examples invented from scratch every time. Whether you're teaching a class, addressing a team, pitching an idea, or leading a training — the problem is the same.
As we started building, one thing became clear: "another AI slide generator" would not solve the real problem. Slides stay slides — static, linear, the same depth for everyone in the room. So we chose layers. A LectaMe presentation starts at the core and builds up in depth: explanation, examples, case studies, interaction. You set the route, your audience can dive deeper.
From the first line of code, structure and privacy have been central. Every presentation follows a proven build — Theory Flow for knowledge transfer, Case Flow for scenarios, Quiz Flow for assessment — grounded in didactic principles that work just as well in a boardroom as in a classroom. Data sits on EU servers, with no tracking and no participant accounts. Built in The Hague.
What we stand for
AI as a tool
AI does not replace you — it takes over the tedious work so there is more time for content, preparation, and audience.
Structure first
Every lesson and every part follows a didactically grounded structure, from lesson design to feedback and assessment.
Privacy by design
GDPR-compliant, data on our own servers in the Netherlands, no tracking without consent. Students don't need to create an account to join live.
For whom?
LectaMe is built for MBO and HBO: for teachers who create lessons, assignments and assessments, for students who learn, practise and work on their development, and for workplace mentors who guide students in the workplace. The Presentation studio is also used by trainers and in business.
