The honest part

Sound like your teaching day?

Scrolling, switching tabs, time-zone maths, weekend paperwork. Every tutor knows this list, and it is exactly what this workspace was built to end.

Where was that worksheet again?

Scrolling through downloads, drives and folders while your student waits in silence.

Solved. Your courseware library, course packs and unit plans sit inside the lesson. The next file is one click away, in the order you planned it.

Hold on, I need to switch windows.

A video in one tab, the audio in another, the booked class somewhere else, your notes in a fourth.

Solved. One presentation screen holds it all: the material, the video, the audio, the games, the timer, the rewards and what comes next.

Are we meeting at 9 my time or yours?

Working out time zones in your head before every booking, and hoping you got it right.

Solved. Every student's clock sits beside yours, so the time is set once and both of you read it correctly.

I'll write all this up later.

The lesson ends and the records, the reports and the payment chasing slide to the weekend.

Solved. Tick off what you actually covered in class and the lesson record, progress report and monthly register fill themselves in.

One platform. One screen. Just teach.

This workspace sits alongside the meeting platform you already teach in. Your students are not asked to move anywhere and nothing about your class changes: you teach the way you already do, with everything you need already on the screen you are sharing.

  1. 1

    Start your class

    Your lesson holds the meeting link, so one click opens Zoom, Google Meet, Teams, VooV, ClassIn, Webex or a platform of your own. No digging through chat history for a link.

  2. 2

    Share your screen

    Share the classroom screen exactly as you always share. Your student sees your lesson, and so do you.

  3. 3

    Just teach

    The material, video, audio, games, timer and rewards are all on that one screen. No scrolling around, no second window, nothing to go looking for.

Everything a teacher needs in one workspace

Any subject, any level, anywhere: languages, maths, science, music, exam preparation, business English, literacy. No switching between five tabs while a student waits, because the lesson, the material, the games and the paperwork all live in the same place.

Plan a lesson once

Resources, games and the steps you'll teach, in the order you'll teach them. Reopen it next week and carry on from where the class stopped.

Know every student

Level, time zone, goals and notes on one profile, so you see their clock beside yours before you set a time.

Your courseware library

Textbooks, slides, worksheets, audio and video, in any subject, uploaded once and pulled straight into a lesson or a course pack.

Teach with the tools on screen

Lesson timer, rewards, practice words and classroom games, all in one presentation screen your student can see.

Translate as you go

Free browser translation and browser spelling suggestions where supported, with no credit use. Optional AI translation is separate, for active Pro subscribers within their monthly allowance.

Homework that never gets forgotten

Set the work from the lesson card with the day it is due. It reminds you from then on — “Due tomorrow”, “2 days late” — and one list shows everything still outstanding.

Records and reports

Keep lesson records, track progress and write reports with Starter. Pro adds optional AI help with drafts and feedback. Save, personalise and reuse drafts without another AI action.

Keep invoices organised

Create student invoices, share a PDF and record money you receive through your usual payment method. Keep lesson income and recorded payments clear; the app does not collect student payments.

From signing up to your first lesson

Nothing to install and nothing to configure. You can set it up the way you already teach.

1

Create your account

Sign up with your email in a minute. The free trial on Starter needs no card and takes nothing from you.

2

Add your students

Put in each student's level, time zone and goals, and upload the courseware you already teach from.

3

Teach, and get paid

Open the lesson, start it in your meeting platform in one click, share your screen and teach from the single classroom screen. Record what you covered, then send the payment link.

Keep it on your device, not in a tab

Be Bright already runs in your browser, so there is nothing to buy and nothing to keep up to date. Start your free trial, then add it to your desktop, tablet or phone once and it opens from your own screen like any other app — straight to your dashboard, full screen, with your lessons and your students waiting exactly where you left them.

In Chrome or Edge, click the install icon in the address bar — the steps are on the right.

  • Desktop or laptop

    Open your page in Chrome or Edge and click the install icon in the address bar. Be Bright then sits in your Start menu, Dock or apps list like any other program.

  • Android tablet or phone

    Open your page in Chrome, tap the three-dot menu and choose Install app. The icon lands with your other apps and opens to your own dashboard.

  • iPhone or iPad

    Open your page in Safari, tap Share, then Add to Home Screen. It opens full-screen from your home screen, with no address bar.

  • Your students never install anything: they keep seeing your shared screen in your meeting platform, exactly as they do today.
