Getting started for teachers
Set up StudyMondo for your class in your first week: activate your free teacher account, create a class, add students, assign a diagnostic and read the results.
Teacher accounts are free. This is the first-week checklist, step by step.
1. Turn on teacher features
- Go to For Teachers.
- No account yet? Choose Sign up free to get started. The sign-up form opens as I’m a teacher: fill it in, tick I confirm I’m a teacher or educator, and you land on your teacher dashboard.
- Already have an account? Sign in, tick I confirm I’m a teacher or educator, and choose Activate my free teacher account.
- Teacher features turn on right away.
Have a paid Premium student account? One account can’t be both yet. Ask us to add teacher tools to it, or sign up again as a teacher with your school email.
Your teacher dashboard shows a Getting started checklist. Each step ticks off on its own when it happens.
2. Create a class
- Open My Classes in the menu.
- Choose New Classroom.
- Give it a name, like “Period 3 AP Calculus”.
- The new class opens with its join code, link and QR code ready to share.
3. Add your students
- Share the join code. Students enter it at /join-class.
- Or copy the join link. The code fills in for them.
- Or show the QR code on your projector.
- Or import your roster from a spreadsheet. See Importing a roster.
4. Give a diagnostic
A diagnostic shows what each student and the whole class needs. See Class diagnostics.
5. Read the results in Insights
- Class plan: ranks the topics your class most needs.
- Performance: mastery, averages and exit-quiz results per student.
- Gradebook: every assignment score in one grid. Export CSV is here.
- Standards: class mastery by standard, such as AP unit or SAT domain.
- Engagement: who logs in, when, and daily flashcard habits. Class flashcard limits are set in Settings.
6. Assign lessons and practice
- Open Work › Assignments in your class.
- Pick a type, such as Interactive Lesson, Quiz, Unit Test or Flashcard Review.
- Pick the topics and an optional due date.
- Keep the target at 80%. That matches the site’s pass mark for clearing a topic.
7. Teach live (optional)
Run a review game or a live video lesson. See Class games and live lessons.
8. Check Needs Attention
- Your teacher dashboard lists students who need you.
- A student appears if they missed a due assignment, scored below target, had no activity for 14 days, or still hasn’t signed in (or started any work) a few days after joining.
- The Roster shows Never signed in for students who haven’t claimed their account yet.
- Choose Mark as seen once you have handled it. A new problem will still show.
