With the increasing complexity of power grid operations, operator training requires timely feedback and objective assessment. Traditional approaches based on lectures and scripted simulations provide limited personalization and weak explainability. This paper presents AI Instructors, an intelligent simulation training system for power-grid control and dispatching. The system is organized into learning, training, assessment, and analysis modules, and is built around two core technical components: (i) parameterized item generation from rule/knowledge bases using a phrase-enhanced transformer (PET), and (ii) solver-grounded, topology-aware grading with hierarchical feedback for both numeric and free-text responses. A voice interaction module is integrated to simulate telephone-based dispatch orders. We validate the system through a pilot deployment with licensed dispatch operators and scenario experiments on benchmark cases. Compared with a conventional scripted DTS workflow, AI Instructors achieves higher stepwise procedure accuracy (68%→90%), a lower topology-violation rate (32%→11%), and shorter response time (120 s→72 s), while increasing the proportion of parameterized questions and accelerating skill acquisition. These results suggest that combining adaptive sequencing with topology-safe, explainable evaluation can improve training effectiveness and operational safety.
