English and IELTS
An English lesson sends as many files as a maths one: an essay on its fourth version, a workbook, a listening track, a video. In Tuboard each student has a workspace sorted by topic, the essay is one document you both write in, and the lesson happens there. The maths tools simply stay out of your way.

Writing practice is the worst case. The student sends Writing 2, you send back Writing 2 with corrections, they send writing2 FINAL, and the workbook PDF from the first lesson is somewhere above all of it.
The student writes the essay in a document inside the topic. You read it and answer in the same text, live in the lesson or later. There is one version, and it is always the current one.
No v2, v3 or FINAL. The student and you edit the same text.
You see the student's sentences as they type them.
Writing Task 1, Writing Task 2, Speaking Part 2.
Open the topic and compare before you start.
The workbook opens inside the topic, YouTube videos play there, and an audio file plays for both of you at once: when one of you pauses or skips, it pauses or skips for the other too.
PDFs open in the topic. A .docx shows as text, and the exact file downloads.
The video plays where the lesson is, not in another tab.
Upload a track and it plays, pauses and skips for both of you.
Quizzes, Google Docs and articles sit beside the materials.
You send one link per student. They open it, type their name and are in the workspace, with no account and nothing to install. Your call stays in Zoom or Meet.
No. The workspace, topics, documents, files and the board work the same for any subject. English and IELTS tutors simply never open the formula palette.
Yes. The essay is a document in the student's topic, and you both write in it and see each other's changes live.
Yes. Upload an audio file to the topic. When one of you plays, pauses or skips, the same happens for the other.
Yes. A .docx file shows its text inside Tuboard, and you can download the exact file. Files up to 50 MB each are stored once you sign in.
No. They open the link and type their name, and that is all.
Create a workspace, add a Writing topic and send the link before your next lesson.
