Congratulations on your new student!

The Confirmation of Assignment email will have important details including: class number, student contact information, approved hours, and deadline. We recommend you save this email for future reference.

Make a great first impression!

Your student is excited to hear from you within 24 hours. Try emailing and/or calling your student too! We are here to help if you don't receive a reply within 48 hours. Students really appreciate emails that demonstrate professionalism, enthusiasm, and clarity by incorporating the following:

• A warm introduction – students love to learn about their teachers!

• A suggested first lesson date and schedule – students appreciate seeing the first lesson date and regular schedule

• Confirmation of meeting location or virtual platform – it's a good idea o confirm the in-person class location and/or virtual platform by providing a meeting invite (i.e. a scheduled recurring zoom meeting link) that will automatically sync with the student's calendar

• Acknowledgement of students learning goals and preferences – this builds confidence with your student from the very beginning

• Set expectations for the first lesson – make your students feel comfortable by providing a general plan for the first meeting

Your first lesson is coming up!

As soon as you and your student agree on the date and time, schedule the first lesson in GLTEngage.

Ready to meet your student?

The first lesson is for determining your student's level, their goals, and their interests! You'll also take some time to tell them about you and about how you will plan their lessons to help them reach their goals.

It's time to submit your lesson!

Now that the first lesson is complete, confirm and submit it in GLTEngage as soon as possible. We hope you enjoyed meeting your student! Please let us know how it went or if you need any help submitting the lesson! Our Customer Success team talks to each student about their first few lessons and this feedback is very helpful.
