Student and teacher are two account types, not two levels of one account. You choose the type when you register, and it decides which screens you get. A teacher account always comes with a student account alongside it, so a teacher can switch to the student side and back at any time; a student who switches the other way is asked to confirm, because that creates a teacher account on the free plan.

A student’s tabs are Main, Tasks, Words and Resources. There is no Students, no Assigned, no Materials and no Classes — those belong to the teacher, and a class is not something a student ever sees or is shown the membership of.

Tasks is where assignments arrive, with filters for active, finished and delayed ones. Words holds the student’s own sets, and Resources is the shared catalogue, the same one teachers use.

The home screen shows recent tasks — only once the student actually has a teacher — and recent sets.

Two things regularly surprise people. A student without a teacher is not a broken account: they can create sets and word cards, take sets from Resources and practise, and the home screen offers exactly that. And an assigned set does not become the student’s set — the words are visible while the task is being done and nowhere else. If the student should keep the set, share it with them separately.
