Tutoring business portal for students & tutors

A tutoring service portal is where tutors schedule each session on one calendar and add assignments to it, and students check off their homework before the next lesson.

How Pory sets it up

Pory gives every student and tutor a sign-in of their own. Each student sees only their own sessions. It covers sessions, assignments and progress. Sessions, assignments, practice tests, resources, students and tutors live in Pory's own database, so there's no spreadsheet to keep in sync.

What it does

01

Tutors lay out each week's lessons on one calendar, by subject

A tutoring week used to be a chain of texts: is Thursday still on, was it four or four-thirty? In Pory the tutor adds each session with the student, subject and time, and it lands on a calendar marked scheduled, done or canceled. Students stop scrolling back through messages to find out when chemistry is.

02

Homework between lessons becomes a list students actually check off

Homework assigned at the end of a lesson tended to survive as a scribble in the back of a notebook. In Pory the tutor adds each assignment to the session it came from, and the student checks items off their own list as they go. The next lesson opens with what's done, not "so, did you get to it?"

The parts behind this portal

Each one reads and writes the same records, so a form, its approval and the status page someone checks are one system. How Pory builds a portal

  • Who sees which records

    Each person sees their own records, the ones assigned to them, or the ones they manage. Fields can be hidden per role. Pory sets this up from your description, and you can adjust it in the editor.

  • Passwordless sign-in

    A sign-in link by email, by default. Password sign-in if you'd rather.

  • Your brand

    Your domain, your colors, your logo. Members see you.

Frequently asked questions

A student signs in with a link sent to their email and lands on Home. They see Home, My assignments, My sessions, Practice tests, Resources and How tutoring works, and only the sessions that are theirs.

Only tutors. It's hidden from students: it doesn't appear on their pages or in the records they open.

You invite them. Each person gets a sign-in link by email, with no password to set, and lands in the role you chose for them.
