Lessons in a messenger, the schedule in a spreadsheet, payments on paper. Now the lessons, the assignments, the schedule, and the payments are in one place.
Lessons
Lessons and a schedule: the student works to a timetable
For you this means the student moves through the program, and the next lesson opens on schedule. You put lessons together with video, text, and materials — and set the order.
- Lessons with video, text, and materials by topic
- A dynamic schedule: the next lesson opens on a timetable
- The program is laid out in order, not as a pile of separate files
Assessments
The student builds the sentence instead of guessing one of four
For you this means you can see whether the student has actually absorbed the construction — rather than how well they poked at an option. For a language school that's the difference between "passed the test" and "knows the language." And the explanations for the answers are read while the test is being taken, so the test teaches what didn't land in the lesson. Six of the eight question types are interactive — the student assembles, reorders, and sorts instead of picking something ready-made; you can add decoys to the tasks and explanations to the options.
- A sentence builder and assembling a word from letters — guessing doesn't work
- Matching and categorization: word ↔ translation, word ↔ part of speech
- Decoy words and decoy letters in the tasks
- Café = Cafe — an option to ignore diacritics and letter variants; in the blanks, synonyms are separated by |: color|colour
- Explanations for the answers — while the test is being taken, not only at the end
Pronunciation
Check pronunciation, not spelling
For you this means the thing that matters most for a language school — you hear how the student speaks rather than reading how they wrote. And you answer them by voice too. The student records a voice answer to an assignment, and the teacher replies with a voice message.
- A student's voice answer to an assignment
- A teacher's voice message in reply
- Graded assignments with the history of the student's work on the lesson
Groups and payment
Groups and payments: teach a stream of students without manual work
For you this means students are sorted into groups, and payment for lessons happens on the platform. After paying, the student gets access on their own.
- Student groups — separate access and materials for each
- Payment for lessons and lesson packages: one-off or on a subscription
- After payment the student is connected automatically
Real schools. Real results. Real people.

Questions about tutoring on the platform

Yes. The student builds a sentence from words, assembles a word from letters, matches a word to its translation — tasks like that can't be guessed. In the blanks, synonyms are separated by |, and diacritics can be ignored: Café counts as Cafe.
Yes. The student records a voice answer to an assignment, and the teacher replies with a voice message.
Yes. Students are sorted into groups, and payment for lessons or a lesson package happens on the platform — one-off or on a subscription.
