Using the Instructor Panel

The Instructor Panel is your command centre — a single place where you have everything you need to run your classes smoothly.

From the panel you can check your upcoming schedule, mark attendance, and enter grades — without digging through notebooks or separate tools.

How to get access

Before you can log in, the school must create your profile in the system and send you an invitation by email with a registration link. You can read more about this in the Registering as an instructor article.

What is in the panel?

The panel is divided into several tabs, accessible from the left-side menu.

My calendar

The default view after logging in. Use it to see your upcoming lessons and open the lesson details for any lesson by clicking its tile.

If the school grants you the appropriate permissions, you can also reschedule an individual lesson or create a one-time class from this view.

If you use an external calendar such as Google, Outlook, or Apple, you can sync it with your ActiveNow schedule. Read how in the Calendar integration article.

Reschedule requests

When the school grants you the appropriate permissions, all of your participants' requests to reschedule individual lessons appear here. From this view you can propose a new lesson time or reject a client's request.

You can also reach a reschedule request directly from the notification bell at the top of the screen or from a push notification on your phone.

Decisions after trial lessons

If the school offers trial lesson sign-ups, you can record here whether a participant wants to continue and add a comment on their decision after the first session.

All my classes

A list view of all your lessons, divided into two categories: Finished and Upcoming.

You can sort lessons by date by clicking the Date column header.

Each lesson entry shows its details. If you want to update any information, click the grey pencil icon next to the lesson to edit it.

Participants

Shows a list of all your students along with profile information such as the classes they attend, email address, phone number, parent name, date of birth, proficiency level, and any other data the school has collected. Which fields are visible depends on the permissions set by the school manager.

Substitutions

A list of all your substitutions — lessons where you covered for another instructor, or where someone covered for you.

My personal details

Shows your basic account information: name and email address. You can also change the application language from this view.

During a lesson

Clicking any lesson tile in My calendar opens the E-register. The header shows key lesson information along with navigation to the previous and next lesson in the course. If the school has enabled it, the header also contains a button to email participants — read more in the Sending emails from the Instructor Panel article.

If the lesson is held online, a banner with a join link also appears in the header.

The view is split into three tabs:

  • Lessonattendance and a Lesson details section with editable fields (topic, homework, custom school fields, online meeting link).

  • Progress — participant grades and skills.

  • Course historyfull history of all lessons in the course.
