Your materials are secure
🔐 OneTutor is only accessible to authorized users.
Access to your course is restricted by default through your institution's login.
Only learners from your institution can use OneTutor.
In addition, you can further secure and control your course as needed.
🔑 Access protection for your course
🔒 You can additionally protect your course with a password.
When enabled:
Only people from your institution
and with the course password
can join the course.
💡 Best practice:
Share the password right next to the OneTutor course link — for example in your LMS, on the course website, or in your lecture slides.
👁️ Visibility of your course
You can decide whether your course:
appears in OneTutor's course search for learners at your institution
or is only accessible via a direct link
🔗 Sharing your course
For learners to use OneTutor, they need to know about your course.
Access is typically provided via a direct course link that you share.
You'll find everything you need under the "Share course" button in your course overview in OneTutor:
📎 Sharing via link
The course link can easily be shared, for example:
Prominently linked in your LMS (e.g. Moodle)
on the course website
in lecture slides (see: materials we've prepared for you)
via email or messenger
💡 The course link is the recommended default way.
📱 Sharing via QR code
Additionally, the course can be shared as a QR code:
embedded in slides
shown in the lecture hall
printed on handouts
Learners can open the course directly on their smartphone.
🔐 How sharing works together with access protection
Regardless of how you share the course, the following applies:
Only learners from your institution can join
A password may also be required (optional)
💡 Sharing a link or QR code does not mean public access.
🧠 OneTutor as a complement to your LMS
OneTutor is designed as an extension of existing LMS systems.
We are working towards deep integration with common LMS platforms such as Moodle.
Currently:
Materials still need to be uploaded in parallel
Organizational course management stays in your LMS
OneTutor adds AI chat, interactive learning, and quizzes on top
📦 Deactivating a course
In the course settings, you can deactivate all features of a course. Learners will then no longer be able to use it. This can be useful, for example, to switch OneTutor off during an exam and prevent learners from easily looking up answers.
⚠️ Deleting a course
Courses can be fully deleted on request.
To do this, please contact us at [email protected] and let us know which course should be deleted.
However, this is often not necessary. If you've set up a test course, you can simply remove it from search using the course visibility setting. It will then no longer be discoverable by others.
