Here are some of our big updates from 2025 that help you save time, stay organized, and support your students like never before.👇
Availability-Based Booking 🗓️
Families can now book lessons based on real tutor availability, simply add the available times, and families can book right from the Student Portal!
- No back-and-forth phone calls
- No awkward open time slots
- No more double booking
Plus, rescheduling takes just one step: students cancel and instantly rebook using a make-up credit (based on your policies).
Public Booking Widgets 🌐
Improvements to booking aren’t just for your current students, because new prospective students can benefit too!
Whether you offer trials or free consultations, new students can also book based on your tutor’s availability or into open lesson slots directly from your website!
Your booking forms can:
- Collect payments
- Show specific tutors
- Set trial/consultation pricing
- Gather custom information
- Hold the weekly time slot for ongoing lessons
Visitors become students instantly, eliminating the need for emails back and forth.
Custom Forms 📜
Different subjects, programs, locations, or lead types? Now you can have multiple sign-up forms on your site that can automatically tag and categorize students based on where they signed up.
Use forms to sort by:
- Lesson category
- Grade level
- Location
- Lead status (trial, waitlist, etc.)
Plus: custom emails, required fields, and individual conversion tracking.
Better data, fewer questions, smarter sign-ups.
Homework Submission 📌
Learning doesn’t stop after the lesson ends, and we can help support that. With Homework Submission in the Student Portal, students can:
- Upload assignments
- Receive feedback
- Keep everything in one tidy place
No missing messages, no lost attachments, no forgotten worksheets. Students stay engaged, and tutors get effortless follow-up.
Bulk Tutor Actions 👩🏫
No one wants to update tutor settings one by one. Now you don’t have to.
You can update multiple tutors at once for:
- Availability
- Payroll settings
- Online booking preferences
- User permissions
- Initial trial lesson rules
Faster setup. Faster onboarding. Smooth changes season to season.
Great for growing teams, group programs, or businesses that like efficiency. 🧡
2-Way Calendar Sync 🔀
External calendars can now sync directly with your schedule. You’ll see personal events and lesson bookings together, privately and automatically.
- Avoid double-booking
- Keep personal plans hidden
- Block time without effort
Your calendar just became a lot more realistic. 😌
Expense Tracking 💸
Receipts take seconds to save now. Just take a photo, and the software reads the information automatically.
- Capture
- Auto-enter
- Done
Great for independent tutors, multi-tutor businesses, and anyone who never wants to dig through receipts at tax time again.
New Languages 🌍
This year, we expanded to 6 languages, helping tutors and students work in the way that feels most natural.
Hello. Bonjour. Hola. Hallo. Guten Tag. Cześć. 🌎
Your software now speaks your language.
Available Languages:
- English
- French
- Spanish
- German
- Polish
- Dutch
How it works:
Languages are automatically enabled based on the primary language spoken in your region.
Built from Your Ideas, Designed to Save You Time 🧡
These updates were shaped by tutors who wanted their software to do more behind the scenes, so that they could focus on tutoring, growing, and supporting student success.
Whether you tutor online, in-person, solo, or with a team, these tools are here to help your business run efficiently and professionally.
✨ Smarter systems. Happier families. More time to tutor.
We can’t wait for you to experience everything we’ve built.
