Class scheduling

Scheduling turns a weekly pattern, such as "Monday and Thursday at 6 pm", into a full calendar of sessions for a class. It also decides when people can join, ends sessions that don't happen, and reminds everyone before class.

Step by step

1–3
  1. 01

    The admin creates the class during onboarding. They choose the students, the tutor, the days and start times, and how long each session lasts.

  2. 02

    The platform generates every session for the class from that pattern. Times are set in India time.

  3. 03

    The tutor keeps their weekly availability up to date, so that later moves and reschedules only land on times they can teach.

4–5
  1. 04

    Students see their upcoming sessions under My Classrooms › Live Lectures and can press Add to Calendar to put them in Google Calendar or any calendar app.

  2. 05

    Reminders go out 24 hours before, 1 hour before and at start time. A WhatsApp, SMS or email reminder goes out about 30 minutes before.

6–7
  1. 06

    The join button appears 30 minutes before class. The tutor can start from 15 minutes before, and the waiting lobby opens at the same time.

  2. 07

    The class goes live once the tutor and at least one student are in. Students can't enter the room before the tutor starts it.

8
  1. 08

    If anyone needs to change the timetable later, the admin edits it: change the weekly pattern, shift all upcoming sessions, move one session, cancel or restore one, or add a one-off session.

How it works

Two ways to create a class

Create class is the quick path for a single one-to-one student. It defaults to 8 weeks (1–24 allowed) of 60-minute sessions (15–240 minutes allowed).

Onboard classroom handles one-to-one or group classes with many students. The admin gives a start and end date and the total number of classes, and sessions default to 90 minutes.

Edits never break links

When a session is moved, renamed or resized, the platform updates the existing session instead of deleting it and making a new one. The class link, recording and attendance stay attached to the session through every change. The tutor can also rename, move or resize a single session from their side.

Late tutors still deliver the full class

If the tutor joins late, the class runs for its full booked length, counted from whichever is later: the scheduled start or the moment the tutor joined.

Sessions that don't happen are closed automatically

Tutor availability

Tutors publish weekly open hours as slots of 30 to 180 minutes, on a grid of at least 15 minutes (30 by default). Rescheduling and the admin slot finder use these hours, minus anything already booked and any approved leave.
