WHAT WE BUILT FOR YOU

YOUR CLASSROOM, ALREADY BUILT

You bring the teaching.
We built the rest.

A video-call tool, a whiteboard, a quiz tool, a homework app, a billing system, parent emails — most tutors stitch together six services and still do the busywork by hand.

GlowGrades is one login. You open a class and teach. Everything around the teaching — the follow-up, the reports, the payments — is handled for you.

WHAT YOU GET

One platform. Three promises.

You hold the lantern. We light everything around the teaching.

01YOUR CLASSROOM

The classroom is built in.

Live 1-on-1 video, a shared whiteboard, and in-class quizzes with every answer tracked the second it's given. One link — no juggling separate tools.

02OUR FLAGSHIP · BETWEEN CLASSES

You teach. The platform does the follow-up.

The moment a class ends, one loop runs on its own — no writing, no admin, no chasing:

Every class, the same loop — you walk into the next one already knowing where to focus.

Quick answers

Frequently asked

How is GlowGrades different from other tutoring platforms?

You set your own prices and own your student relationships — no one is ever assigned to you, and there's no lock-in — and the platform does the work between classes. Every class is transcribed, the engine understands what you taught, assigns matched practice automatically, and keeps parents in the loop. You show up and teach.

Is it actually free?

Yes. GlowGrades is free for teachers to use — no subscription, no class limits, and no credit card needed to sign up.

What's included?

Unlimited live 1-on-1 classes, unlimited whiteboard sessions, unlimited in-class quizzes, the auto-homework engine plus a Prep Brief before each class, AI analysis on every assignment, a recap to parents after every class with weekly digests and a quarterly report card, a public profile on the directory, and iCal calendar sync.

What curricula are supported?

US (Common Core, NGSS, C3), India (CBSE, ICSE), plus IB and Cambridge — Kindergarten to Grade 12 across Math, Science, English/ELA, Social Studies, World Languages, plus AI Literacy, Coding, and Financial Literacy. Every question aligns to published curriculum standards and shows the standard it teaches (browse them all on our Curriculum Standards page), and every question is machine-verified — independent checks must agree before any student sees it.

Can I invite students by WhatsApp or email?

Both. Invite by email, by phone (we generate a pre-filled WhatsApp link), or by both. Your students can also find you on the public teacher directory and request a connection themselves.

Three promises later, the busywork is gone.

You became a teacher to teach — not to chase invoices or write parent emails at midnight.

So we built the classroom, the homework, and the follow-up around you.

You bring the lantern. We light the rest of the path.

Your platform is ready.
