How Pencil Spaces solves it
A tutor takes over a student mid-term. She opens his Space and finds every board from the last two months, just as the previous tutor left them.
The lesson summaries tell her what worked and what’s next. Her first lesson picks up exactly where the last one ended.
- Advanced SubstitutionsComing soonAdvanced Substitutions, in development, will suggest suitable substitutes, offer the lesson to several at once and give the substitute the student’s notes.
- Lesson SummariesAvailableLesson Summaries write an automatic recap of every lesson with action items, in versions for the student, parent, tutor and admin.
- Persistent SpacesAvailablePersistent Spaces save everything between lessons, so each lesson picks up where the last one ended.
