Student engagement

Hear how students are really finding their lessons.

Most students never fill in a survey, and the ones who are unhappy often just leave. TutorTracer reads every lesson for how engaged the student is, and gathers the moments that show it, so you can act before a family walks away.

Free for 14 days or 400 lesson hours, whichever comes first. No card needed.

What it measures

Engagement, from the lesson itself.

TutorTracer doesn't send questionnaires. It looks at what the student actually says and does in each lesson.

Engagement per lesson

Each analysed lesson records the student's engagement as high, medium or low. A student needs a few analysed lessons before an overall level is shown.

Review-worthy moments

Quotes where a student sounds lost, frustrated or disengaged, such as “I don't get it but it's fine”, each linked to the lesson it came from.

Enthusiasm signals

Quotes where a student lights up, asks for more or gets something for the first time. The good news, with evidence.

Student pages

Every student, with the evidence.

Each student has a page with their lessons, hours and engagement, a breakdown by tutor, their review-worthy moments and enthusiasm signals, and their full session history.

  • Compare engagement across the tutors a student has had
  • Open any moment to see the quote in the lesson transcript
  • Session history with engagement for every lesson

Why it matters

The early warning that surveys can't give you.

Spot disengagement early

A run of low-engagement lessons is visible weeks before a parent emails to cancel.

Fix the match, not the student

If a student is engaged with one tutor and not another, the breakdown shows it.

Better parent conversations

Go into a call with specific moments from recent lessons, good and bad.

Recognise great teaching

Enthusiasm signals show which tutors leave students wanting more.

Quality alongside engagement

Encouragement and engagement are also dimensions in the tutor quality rubric by default.

No extra work for families

Nothing to fill in. It comes from lessons that are already happening.

How it works

Built into every lesson analysis.

  1. Lessons sync

    Lesson transcripts arrive from Lessonspace, Zoom, Teams or Google Meet.

  2. Each lesson is read

    Alongside issues and quality, TutorTracer rates the student's engagement and picks out notable moments, with quotes.

  3. It rolls up

    Students are listed with their overall engagement, number of lessons, number of tutors and last lesson.

FAQ

Questions, answered.

Is this a satisfaction score?

Not directly. TutorTracer measures engagement and the signals in what students say during lessons, which is often the earliest sign of whether they are happy. It doesn't survey families.

Why does a student show N/A?

Engagement is shown once enough of that student's lessons have been analysed. Until then the student shows N/A rather than a guess.

Can we see engagement by tutor?

Yes. Each student page has a tutor breakdown, so you can see whether a student is more engaged with one tutor than another.

Does it work for younger students?

It works from the lesson transcript, so it depends on the student speaking during the lesson. Lessons with very little conversation give less to go on.

Who can see student pages?

People on your organisation's TutorTracer account. Students and parents don't have access.
