The new Rihisi classroom: information for tutors

Classroom information for tutors

Over the last few weeks, we have been testing a new Rihisi classroom with a group of selected tutors. We listened to their feedback, made improvements and fixed problems.

In particular, we’re bringing back the General English courses and Conversation Starters that tutors missed in the last release.

After you use the new classroom, please take a survey and tell us about your experience. We’ll continue to make improvements based on your feedback.

In this article, you’ll find an overview of what’s inside the new classroom. Please see our other articles for more information on English courses available on Rihisi, preparing for lessons in the classroom, starting and teaching lessons, and 5 steps to an awesome live lesson.
