Understanding Your Role
As a Student, you can:

Joining Your First Course
Method 1: Using an Invite Code
This is the most common way students join courses.
Get Your Code
Your teacher will provide you with a unique invite code. Codes are typically 12 characters (letters and numbers).
Navigate to Enrollments
Click "My Enrollments" in the left sidebar, or go to /platform/my-enrollments.
Join with Code
Click the "Join Course" button, enter your invite code, and click "Enroll".
Confirmation
You'll see a success message, and the course appears in your "My Enrollments" list as active. You can start accessing the course content right away.
Method 2: Requesting Enrollment
If you don't have an invite code:
Browse the Teacher Directory
Find teachers accepting students and browse available courses.
Request Access
Find a teacher you'd like to learn with and click "Request to Join". In the join request form, describe your current language level and what you'd like to achieve — the teacher will use this to select the most suitable course for you.
Wait for Approval
The teacher will review your message, choose the best-fitting course, and enroll you. You'll receive a notification confirming which course you were assigned to, and it will automatically appear in your enrollments.
Navigating to Your Dashboard
After joining a course, your Dashboard becomes your learning hub:
- Click "Platform" in the sidebar or navigate to
/platform - Your dashboard shows:
- Upcoming Lessons: Scheduled classes and deadlines
- Pending Homework: Assignments waiting for completion
- Recent Activity: Your latest progress
- Quick Actions: Fast access to common tasks
Your First Lesson
Let's complete your first lesson:
Access Lessons
All your assigned and past lessons are available on the Dashboard under "My Lessons" — this includes lessons from all your enrollments. To browse lessons from a specific enrollment, go to the "My Enrollments" page, find the enrollment, and open it.
Select a Lesson
Click on any lesson to open it.
Complete the Lesson
Read through the content, complete interactive exercises, and your progress saves automatically. Click "Complete" when finished.
Submit Homework (if assigned)
Complete homework assignments and click "Finish" on the bottom panel to submit your work for teacher review.
Setting Up Notifications
You can control which email notifications you receive about lesson activity. Go to your notification preferences and toggle these on or off:
- Lesson Created — when a new lesson is assigned to you
- Lesson Updated — when lesson content is changed
- Lesson Deleted — when a lesson is removed
- Lesson Status Changed — when a lesson's status changes (e.g., marked as complete)
All toggles are enabled by default.
