Teacher & Student Linking (How It Works)

👨‍🏫 Teacher & Student Linking (How It Works)

✅ What this does

  • Connects a student account to a teacher
  • Allows teachers to view student progress
  • Enables teacher-guided learning

Time: 1–3 minutes
Difficulty: Easy

🚨 Important (Read First)

👉 There are no separate “teacher accounts”

  • Every user has a normal account
  • The teacher/student link defines the relationship

⚠️ Key Rules

  • Students must link themselves to a teacher
  • Teachers cannot add students directly
  • This is required for security and privacy

🎓 How Students Link to a Teacher

You can link your account in two ways:

Option 1 — During Account Creation

When signing up:

  • Select “Learning With a Teacher”
  • Enter your teacher’s email, username, or referral code

👉 Your account will be linked automatically

Option 2 — After Account Creation

If you already have an account:

  • Click your name (top corner)
  • Go to My Teacher
  • Enter your teacher’s email, username, or referral code
  • Save by clicking the green checkmark

👉 Your account will now be linked

🔍 How to Confirm It Worked

  • Your teacher can now see your progress
  • Your account is associated with their studio
  • Your teacher will appear under Teacher & Class in the My Account page

👉 If unsure, ask your teacher to confirm
