How to add a Class?

Need to add an upcoming class? Learn how to add one or multiple classes to a course.

First off, let’s better understand how classes work and how they compare to a course.

  • Classes are individual sessions of a course. A class can have 1 student or even multiple (group). A class typically centers around a topic or theme to be covered during that session. When you complete a class, you are marking attendance and filling out a report for each student in that class.
  • A course is set up around a language and level of topics to be covered over multiple classes. A course can have 1 or many students all learning the same language and level of content.

The main takeaway is that each specific class that we add must be related to a course, so that the correct students can be added for that session (good news! this is done automatically!). When a client purchases a package of hours (4 hours up to 100 hours!), they will want random class times or a set schedule. By default, CORE Languages Client Success Managers encourage a regular schedule, but there are times this will not work for the client. Let’s dive in deeper.

Whether you are looking to add one class or a regular schedule of classes, you will start by doing the same action. Adding a first class to a course. You can add a class from the Calendar tab, the My Courses tab, or directly from the desired course. You can choose your favorite or most optimal way of adding classes.

Add a Class from the Calendar: From the Dashboard, click the Calendar tab. Then click the +Add New Class button at the top left of the calendar.

Issues:

  • Insufficient Client Credit: When you are adding a class for a course you are teaching, you may receive a notification that the client “has insufficient credit for this class”. Please notify your CORE Languages admin or the client that you cannot add this future class until they have purchased a new package of hours.

  • Scheduling within the 24 hours before the upcoming class: Please plan your future classes ahead of time. We recommend adding classes at least 24 hours in advance of the upcoming class. Please note that Online class notifications are sent 1 hour before the upcoming class. If the class is not listed on your schedule at least 2 hours before the class, the student may not receive notification of this online class via e-mail.
  • Completing Reports: Please note that in order to receive full compensation for classes taught, you must complete a report for the class providing homework or notes from the class
