Getting Started with AxelTutor
Your step-by-step guide to setting up your account and teaching effectively.
Step 1: Set Up Your Profile
Your profile is how students find and connect with you. A great profile builds trust and attracts more bookings.
- Navigate to your Dashboard after signing in.
- Go to the "Profile Settings" tab.
- Fill out your name, write a compelling bio, set your hourly rate, and list the languages you speak.
- Upload a professional profile picture.
Step 2: Define Your Availability
Let students know when you're free to teach. Our scheduling tools make booking effortless for everyone.
- In your dashboard, click on "Calendar & Availability".
- Select a date on the calendar.
- Use the panel on the right to add available time slots for that day.
- Share your public profile link, which includes your booking calendar.
Step 3: Prepare Your Materials
Organize your lessons into topics and boards for easy access during sessions.
- Go to the "Teaching Materials" tab in your dashboard.
- Create topics (e.g., "IGCSE Algebra", "Calculus I").
- Within a topic, click "Add New Board" to open the canvas.
- Prepare lesson notes, diagrams, and examples ahead of time. Everything is saved automatically.
- Click the 'Share' icon on any board to generate a unique link. Anyone with the link can view your canvas in real-time.
Step 4: Teach with AI-Powered Tools
During a session, the canvas is your interactive workspace.
- Use the toolbar to draw, write, add text, and insert images.
- Open the "AI Assistant" panel to get help, generate quiz questions, or find new ways to explain a concept.
- Use the "3D Viewport" by typing commands like "cube 5" or "parabola 0.5 1 2" to instantly generate 3D models.
Step 5: After the Session
AxelTutor continues to work for you even after the lesson is over.
- Session recordings are automatically available on the lesson page.
- Upload supplementary files (like homework PDFs or notes) to the lesson page for your student to download.
- Use AI to generate a summary of the lesson from the recording's transcript (coming soon).
