Features
Twenty-four things it does, in the four jobs a tutor does: teach the lesson, set and mark the work, keep the record, and run the teaching. Scroll the list and the recording follows you to that part of the lesson.
Teach the lesson
Live, on real pages, with the tools a lesson needs.
Live together
Strokes appear as they are drawn. Named cursors show who is where; one tap brings everyone to your page.
A4 pages, always
Fixed pages that print and export exactly as written. Templates: ruled, squared, graph with axes, dotted, isometric, music staves, handwriting tramlines, Cornell.
PDF import
Upload a paper, preview every page, pick the ones you want. They become pages, with the paper fixed under your writing.
Instruments
Straight-line tool, protractor, scientific calculator with a Place key that writes results onto the page.
Plot a graph
Type y = f(x), watch the curve preview live, frame it with sliders, and one click places it over its axes, exactly as previewed.
Axes and graphs
Drag out x-y axes, a number line or a unit circle. Type y = x^2 - 2 and a range and the curve is drawn over its axes, as ordinary ink that erases and exports like handwriting.
Images
Paste screenshots mid-lesson; they appear instantly and sync to everyone. Resize with locked aspect.
Locked pictures
Lock a pasted screenshot and every tap and box goes to the ink on top, never the picture.
Resize and crop
Select anything drawn, ink, a shape, a graph or a mark, and drag a corner: the line weight stays where you set it. Pictures crop to the part that matters.
Set and mark the work
Homework that is the question, handed in and marked on the page.
Homework in parts
Draw a box round a question or add whole pages, from any of the student's books, in a panel beside the page. Set it, amend it later, and see not-seen, seen and handed-in without asking.
Ticked off, part by part
Each part is a tick on the student's shelf, with a picture of the work. The last tick hands it in.
Marked and handed back
When a student writes on a homework page it shows as Started, and when it looks done they are asked to hand it in. Home lists what is waiting to mark: give a mark out of a total, a grade or a comment, and Return sends it back.
Marks that add up
A tick or a cross inside a homework part marks it: 3 of 4 correct. Give a part marks out of a total and your tick asks how many: 12 / 20.
Notifications, and one email a day
Hand-ins, sign-ins and homework due tomorrow, on the bell at the top of every page. Choose what reaches it, and a daily email after seven if you want one.
Keep the record
Every lesson kept, in order, and out as one PDF.
Books and chapters
One book per topic, a chapter per lesson (one tap names it with today's date). Move pages between chapters.
Key dates
Mocks, exams and deadlines on each student's card, on Home, on the calendar and on the lesson chip mid-lesson. Shared with the student and their parents unless you keep one to the tutors.
Key notes
Box the line to remember. A copy lands on a Key notes page at the front of the chapter, with its page number.
Two pages side by side
Lay the pair open like a book on a wide screen, both writable. The arrows turn the pair.
Exports
Whole book, one chapter, everything since a date, or a single page. The cover names the student, you and the dates it covers; contents and dividers included.
“Being able to download full books, or just certain chapters, with my students is a real game-changer.” Matthew, tutor, London
Restore anything
Deleted pages restore on the board; deleted books and students wait 30 days in the bin.
Works offline
An installable app that keeps working through dropped wifi and reconciles when it returns.
Run your teaching
Students, links and materials, kept tidy.
Lesson links
A lesson link lets a student write in the book without signing in; a view-only link suits a parent. One per student or per book, and either stops with one tap. Student sign-ins are free and need no email.
A shelf that stays manageable
Drag students into the order you want, tag them (GCSE, Tuesday, Year 11) and filter by tag. Cmd+K finds a student, a book or a piece of homework from anywhere.
Worksheet library
Build materials once, then send them to any students as fresh books or appended pages, optionally as homework. On the Tutor plan and above.
