For tutors and academic coaches

Tutors: session notes and parent progress reports, written for you.

For tutors, test prep instructors, and academic coaches. Slide Practice writes your session note and a progress report you can send to the student and the parent after every session, tracks the learning goals and progress that move your students forward, and keeps an automatic log of your sessions. You stay focused on teaching. The write up takes care of itself.

The problem with a session that goes well

Tutoring runs on detail. In a single session you might unpack a concept the student has been stuck on, work through practice problems, catch a recurring mistake, agree on homework, and set a target for the next quiz or test. By the time the hour ends, your student has a lot to hold on to, and so do you.

Capturing all of that by hand is the part that quietly wears tutors down. You either write notes during the session and lose your attention on the student, or you write them up afterward when half the detail has already faded. Either way the parent update gets shorter and later, and the student is left to remember a week of work on their own.

How Slide writes the session note for you

The core of Slide Practice is simple: it writes your session notes for you. With consent, you record or upload the session. In about a minute, Slide drafts three things for you to review:

  • A session note of what you covered, in plain language, so no concept from the session gets lost.
  • The action items the student agreed to, pulled out and listed clearly, so the homework and next steps are obvious.
  • A progress report ready to send to the student and the parent, so everyone has the wins, the focus areas, and the assignments in writing before the next session.

You read it, fix anything you want, and send. The ten minutes you used to spend writing becomes a two minute review. That is the whole pitch, and everything else on this page is secondary to it. You can read more about AI session recaps and how they work.

Consent comes first

Recording is consent first. You ask before you record, including a parent or guardian when the student is a minor, and you decide what is kept, shared, or deleted. Your students and your data belong to you. Slide is built so the recording serves the student, not the other way around.

A sample session note

Here is the kind of note Slide drafts for you to review after a session. It is an illustration, not a real student. You edit anything you want, then it is ready for the student portal and the progress report.

Session write-upLabelled sample

Algebra with Maya R.

Maya arrived able to factor a quadratic when the leading coefficient is one, and stuck the moment it is not. We worked through six problems of the harder kind, slowly, and found the actual gap: she was guessing factor pairs rather than splitting the middle term, so a problem that did not resolve in two guesses turned into a dead end. We wrote out the splitting method as four steps and she used it unaided on the last three problems. She also asked, unprompted, why the method works, which is the first time she has asked that in these sessions.

Outcomes you can see across sessions

A single session note helps after one lesson. A term of them, side by side, is where the real progress shows. Slide tracks the learning goals you set with each student, the commitments they make, and how they are progressing toward a target grade or score, so progress over sessions is something you, the student, and the parent can all see rather than something you try to hold in your head. That is the outcomes layer of your practice: a clear record of what changed, session by session, that you can open before each lesson.

Built around the work, not just the note

The session note is the reason most tutors come to Slide. A few supporting features make the rest of the week lighter:

Booking on one shared link.

Families pick a time without the back and forth. One link does it.

A private student portal.

Each student has one calm place to see their session notes, learning goals, assignments, and history. Learn more about the student portal.

Sliding scale rates.

Set tiered pricing so more families can find a rate that fits. Accessibility matters in tutoring too, and the pricing should make room for it.

Programs and multi session arcs.

Not built. Grouping a series of sessions into a program, so an exam prep arc or a semester of lessons holds together, is described on the roadmap.

Your sessions and student contact, logged automatically

Every session you run in Slide is logged for you, with the date, the student, and the time on the work. Alongside it, Slide keeps an automatic record of who you saw and when, so you have a running session log without keeping a separate spreadsheet.

That log is handy at invoicing time, and when a parent asks what you have covered this term. To be plain about what Slide does and does not do: Slide does not issue, track, or verify any credential, certification, or continuing education, and it is not a school record or transcript. What Slide gives you is an honest, automatic record of the sessions and student contact you actually logged, and nothing more.

An honest comparison

Slide is the newcomer in tutoring software. It is worth being clear about where it fits a tutoring practice and where an established, all in one tool may serve you better today.

What you needSlide PracticeEstablished tutoring and client management tools
Writing session notes for youRecords or uploads, then drafts the note, action items, and a parent ready progress report in about a minuteUsually manual notes and templates; writing the note is on you
Booking and a student portalIncluded, kept simple and focusedOften deeper and more configurable, with years of refinement behind them
Collecting student paymentsNot yet a processor; you collect your own way with PayPal or similarMany handle invoicing and payments natively today
Cut of what you earnNo commission, everVaries by tool; some take a fee or bundle payment processing
Track recordNew and live, few public customers yetEstablished, with large user bases and longer histories

If you need invoicing, payments, scheduling, and a long feature list under one roof today, a mature tool may be the better fit right now. If the thing eating your evenings is writing notes and parent updates, that is exactly what Slide was built to take off your plate.

Pricing that respects your margins

Slide takes no commission, on any plan, ever. What a family pays you for a lesson stays yours. Every new tutor starts with a 7-day Pro trial, no card. Plans run Starter at $14.99 a month, Pro at $29.99 a month (the best value), and Max at $49.99 a month. Add ons are pay as you go: Auto Join is $1.99 per session and extra session notes are $0.99 each. Your own Slide subscription is billed through Paddle, our merchant of record. You can see the full breakdown on the pricing page. There is no per student trap and no commission on what a family pays you.

Where things stand, honestly

Slide Practice is built by a team of three, founder-led from Manila. We come from a business and software background, not a classroom or test prep one, which is why the product sticks to the practical mechanics of running a tutoring practice and leaves the teaching to you. It is live. Founding access is open now. The founding group is capped at 30 practitioners, who get Pro at $19 a month for their first 12 months, then $29.99.

One thing to be clear about: Slide is cash pay practice software for independent tutors. It is not a school information system, a gradebook, or a learning management system, and it makes no academic record or compliance claims. If your work requires an official school record, use a tool built for that and keep Slide for the practice side: your session notes, progress reports, booking, and student portal.

How does recording work, and is it consent first?

You record or upload a session, and Slide drafts the session note, the action items, and a progress report in about a minute for you to review and send. Recording is consent first. You ask before you record, including a parent or guardian when the student is a minor, and you stay in control of what is captured, kept, or deleted. Your students and your data are yours.

Can I send progress reports to parents and students?

Yes. After each session Slide drafts a progress report you can send to the student and the parent, with what you covered, the assignments, and progress toward the target grade or score. You review and edit it first, then send. It is the part most tutors say they would otherwise put off.

Is Slide Practice a school records system or gradebook?

No. Slide Practice is cash pay practice software for independent tutors, not a school information system, gradebook, or learning management system. It is built for the practice side of your work: session notes, progress reports, booking, and a student portal. It makes no official academic record or compliance claims. If your work requires a school record, use a tool made for that.

Does Slide Practice collect tuition or student payments for me?

Not yet. Slide is not a payment processor or marketplace, so it does not collect tuition or student payments for you. You still collect payments your own way, with PayPal or a similar tool, for now. Your own Slide subscription is billed separately through Paddle, our merchant of record.

How does the 7-day Pro trial work?

Every new tutor starts with a 7-day Pro trial, with no credit card required. You get Pro features while you try it on real sessions, with 5 AI recaps included in the trial. After the trial you can choose Starter at $14.99, Pro at $29.99, or Max at $49.99 a month, and founding tutors lock in Pro at $19 a month for their first 12 months.
