Instructors · Lehrkräfte
The person marking your work is a person.
Lingio's tasks are not auto-graded and its classrooms are not chatbots. Behind both is an instructor with their own portal — someone who was granted that role by an admin, who leads a real cohort, and who reads what you wrote.
What an instructor can do
Create the cohort, schedule the sessions, open the video room, take attendance, and manage the shared board.
Write chapters and lessons in a proper editor, embed resources and files, and decide what is a lecture and what is a graded task.
Pass or fail a submission, with the next lesson gated behind it. This is the one place a human decides, not an algorithm.
Build quizzes for their own classrooms and courses, and see how the cohort scored.
An instructor is not an admin. They see the classrooms they lead and the courses they wrote — nothing else, enforced on the server rather than by hiding buttons.
Instructors work in their own application, not in a mode toggle bolted onto the learner app.
- Not an admin — no access to other instructors' classrooms or to the platform's users
- Not automated — a task is passed by a person who read it
- Not anonymous — you can see who leads your classroom
- How do I become an instructor?
- An admin grants the role. There is no self-service upgrade in the app, and no application form that flips a bit automatically — which is the reason the role means anything.
- Can an instructor see all of Lingio's users?
- No. An instructor sees the classrooms they lead or assist, and the courses they created. That boundary is enforced on the server, not by hiding parts of the interface.
- Do instructors write their own material?
- Yes. Courses, lessons and quizzes are authored by instructors in their own portal, with an editor that handles embedded resources and files.
- Does it cost anything to be taught?
- No. Lingio has no paid tier, for learners or for instructors.
- I already teach German. Can I move my class onto this?
- That is what the portal is for: classrooms with sessions and attendance, a course you author yourself, quizzes, and task marking. Ask an admin for instructor access to get started.
