FAQ

User Registration

What level of education does ClassCoach cater to?

ClassCoach has been designed and developed specifically for high school level mathematics tutoring.

You can see a list of all available subjects and pricing here.

You don’t specifically need to be in high school to take advantage of our tutoring! Even if you’re first year University looking to refresh on more advanced year 12 mathematics concepts, or in primary school looking to get a head start on high school, our doors are open.

How do I register?

To register an account with ClassCoach, you simply need to press the Sign Up button in the top right of the website.

Register an Account

There will be two sections during registration – Parent (for high school students) and Student information.

No payment or financial information is required during registration. Payment is only required when you book a tutoring session.

Does the Parent or Student register?

As per ClassCoach Terms and Conditions – A parent or guardian must the be the one who registers for an account if you’re in high school. If you’re in University, make sure to select that option during registration as to avoid needing to include parent details.

In the case of high school student accounts – Each (Parent) account is linked to a single Student by unique email address. This allows the system to track bookings and profiles correctly.

If you wish to register multiple Students, a unique email address must be used for each additional student.

Example – Parents Roger and Mary have two children – Matt and John.

  • Matt can be registered under Roger’s email address
  • The additional account, for John, can be registered under Mary’s email address

This allows each student to have a completely separate account which keeps all progress and information unique to that Student.

Test Quizzes

What are test quizzes?

We’ve built 1000s of online test questions, aligned to the Australian National Curriculum, to help students practice topics that are relevant to their needs. Questions range from easy to hard allowing students to test their understanding of topics from an introductory level to the more difficult concepts.

How do quizzes work?

Quizzes are broken down into Course (e.g. Year 7), Chapter (e.g. Integers) and Topic (e.g. Dividing Integers) levels. Each Chapter will have all the different concepts broken down into individual quizzes within Topics.

Once you’re enrolled into a Course, you’ll be able to navigate through, and complete, Chapters and Topic Quizzes. Each Chapter will have a Pre-Test quiz, to test your overall understanding and knowledge of the Chapter, and also individual quizzes for each Topic within that Chapter.

What do quizzes have to do with tutoring?

Whether it’s before or after a tutoring session, we can analyse quiz responses to monitor progress and identify areas of strength and improvement. We strongly believe that the quizzes go hand in hand with tutoring to not only indentify the best topics to cover during tutoring sessions but also reinforce the concepts learnt after a tutor session.

Once you’ve finished quizzes, the results are tied to your ClassCoach account and our tutors are able to see your results, question by question, for each Quiz completed in their tutor dashboard.

This will allow your tutor to better pre-plan for your tutoring sessions as they’re able to see strength and focus areas based on how you did on the quizzes.

What quizzes are currently available?

You can view the current Test Quizzes availability on the Features tab of the Pricing and Products page.

Do Test Quizzes cost money?

Our test quizzes are completely free to all registered members.

How do I get access?

Once you’ve registered your account, the ClassCoach team will assess your registration details and manually assign you to the most appropriate Courses.

You’re able to view what courses you have access to on the Quizzes page.

Our tutor partner currently delivers over 6,000 sessions a month in the USA, UK, Malaysia, Nepal, Japan, India & UAE and are used by the top online tutoring companies around the globe.

Background Checks – All our tutors need to go through a background check before a tutor is hired.

Communication Skills – Communication is one of the major factors in any field but especially in delivering a lesson or helping a student both online and offline. All ClassCoach tutors have, at minimum, a graduate degree with deep subject knowledge. They have excellent communication skills to ensure language is not a bottleneck in delivering the lesson.

Once the code has been used, as a thank you, you will receive a discount on your next tutoring session.

How do I refer someone?

Am I limited to the number of referrals that I can do?

No. The more people that you invite to the program, the more free tutoring you will receive.

Technology

Can I test the technology before I start a tutor session?

We’ve created some simple ways for you to test your system configuration before joining your session:

  1. Pre-Session Tech Check – 10 minutes prior to your session commencing, the tutor room will open for you to enter early and get set up. Once you join your session you will be taken through a quick troubleshooting guide to check your sound is working correctly.
  2. Demo Room – To test if the whiteboard loads on your computer, you can try our Demo Room. You won’t have access to audio and all the features you will see during a real session, but you will be able to check everything loads correctly and sample some of the simple drawing tools. If you’re able to interact and use the Demo Room, there should be nothing on your end blocking the connection to the room.

What software / hardware do I need for tutoring?

Please refer to our Technical Requirements page for a comprehensive list of information on what to use for your tutoring session.

Before joining every session – you’ll be taken through a quick 60 second troubleshooting guide to make sure your audio is working correctly. You can reach more about this technology check in the User Guide section of your profile.
