Welcome! As a teacher, your dashboard gives you access to the classes, students, and tools you need to manage your lessons and daily tasks.

This guide will walk you through the essentials so you can get started with confidence.

Logging in or Activating Your Account

If you received an invitation email:

  • Click the activation link in the email to set your password and access your admin account.
  • If your link has expired or you can’t find the email, reach out to your system administrator for a new one.

If you already have your login credentials:

  • Go to the login page and sign in with your email/login and password.

💡 You can always reset your password if needed from the login screen.

  • Viewing assigned classes
