Meet Anjali: The Coordinator Behind iXCEL’s Operations

Anjali, the coordinator at iXCEL, plays a crucial role in ensuring smooth operations within the platform. She is responsible for training new tutors on Classcard and Lessonspace, managing over 25 teachers, scheduling sessions, and keeping track of student attendance. In this conversation, she shares insights into how technology has transformed daily workflows at iXCEL and improved the overall learning experience.

Challenges: Managing Online Learning

As a fully online learning platform, iXCEL faced challenges in daily operations, particularly in managing tutors, scheduling sessions, and effectively communicating with busy parents. Coordinating with over 25 teachers while keeping track of student attendance and class schedules was time-consuming and required a more organized system. Additionally, ensuring a seamless and efficient online learning experience for both students and tutors was a key priority.

Solution: The Role of Technology

In the realm of online teaching, and learning, tech savviness is an indispensable skill for educators, administrators and learners alike. Fortunately, iXCEL found the perfect tech tools to streamline their everyday operations.

Lessonspace, a robust platform for virtual classrooms, online tutoring & collaborative learning, simplified the process of conducting online classes with its video conferencing and recording capabilities. Online lessons conducted on Lessonspace can be recorded effortlessly and shared with parents conveniently in the form of links.

iXCEL also found the perfect ally to complement Lessonspace in the form of Classcard, an all-in-one student and class management platform. The task of managing and coordinating with 25 teachers became significantly easier. “I can mark attendance, track remaining sessions, and note missed classes or absences”, Anjali explains. “It gives me detailed information about everything without having to interrupt teachers during working hours—I can simply check these things myself.” 

Results: Smarter Teaching, Smoother Learning

The synergy between Lessonspace and Classcard has delivered remarkable results for iXCEL, saving time and effort while enhancing the learning experience. “Classes run more smoothly now”, shares Anjali. “Tutors […] can easily share screens and use the whiteboard”.

While scheduling demos or classes on Classcard, Lessonspace can be set as the location, automatically generating a meeting URL which is instantly shared with both the tutor and student. “When we create the link, it immediately alerts both parents and tutors”, says Anjali. “They can track their upcoming classes easily, and if anyone cancels, they get automatic notifications. The instant alerts eliminate the need for me to repeatedly inform everyone manually, making everything work more smoothly.”
