Add Co-teachers to a class

Adding a co-teacher to your class on Typing.com allows for seamless teamwork and shared responsibilities. Follow these fun and engaging steps to enhance your classroom experience.
Important: To add a co-teacher to your class, you must have a School or District Account. If you need to convert your account, follow these steps. 

If you're rostering through Google Classroom, Clever, or ClassLink, you need to make the changes with those providers first and wait for the account to re-sync (overnight).

Once you convert your Classroom account to a School or District account, you’ll receive a secondary Admin profile. To switch profiles, click your name in the upper-right corner and use the drop-down menu:

• Choose your Teacher profile to manage your classes.

• Choose your Admin profile to manage the teachers in your school or district.

Two profiles, one convenient menu—it’s easy to switch hats whenever you need to!

If you know a teacher already has a Typing.com account but you’re still unable to add them, they may have the wrong account type, such as a School or District account. To be added to a School or District profile, the teacher must have a Classroom account.

If this is the case, the teacher should contact our support team at support@typing.com so we can change their account back to a Classroom account.

Pro-Tip: Be sure to select the account type that best fits your school’s needs. If you manage only one school, we recommend choosing a School account. Selecting a District account may add unnecessary complexity, as it includes advanced options designed for managing multiple schools. A School account offers a simpler and more streamlined experience for managing a single school.

Now that your account type is set up, you can add other teachers to your School or District account.

1. Click your name in the upper-right corner and select Admin from the drop-down menu.

2. From the Admin dashboard, select Faculty.

3. Click Invite Faculty.

4. Enter the email address associated with the teacher’s Typing.com account and choose their role: Teacher, Admin, or Billing Admin.

5. Click Review Invites, confirm the information, and send the invitation.

6. The teacher must sign in to their Typing.com account and accept the invitation.

Once the teacher accepts the invitation and joins your school, you’ll be able to add them as a co-teacher to your classes. Teamwork unlocked!
