Add a student when you take on someone new. The form takes about a minute and sets up everything later features rely on: the student’s contacts and who receives which emails. Prefer the family to type their own details? Invite them with a link instead.

Steps

1

Enter student details

Fill in the contact information for the student and choose who the student’s primary contact is:
  • Student: the student handles their own scheduling and billing. A student email is required.
  • Someone else: a parent or guardian handles it. The student’s own email becomes optional.
Lesson prices aren’t set here: a lesson’s rate lives on the calendar event. See Rate presets.
2

Add additional contacts

Add anyone else attached to the student: up to 6 contacts besides the student themselves (the primary guardian counts as one of the 6).To manage contacts after the student exists, see Contacts and notifications.
3

Set notification preferences

Choose which contacts receive each kind of email:
  • Lesson details: lesson progress and notes.
  • Lesson schedule: lesson updates and cancellations.
Fine-tune recipients later on the student’s profile. See Contacts and notifications.
