Tutorial centre and EdTech terms, explained.

Rules that decide which users can open which content or features.

In a tutorial centre, access control usually means only students who have paid can open a class's materials, lessons and exams. KlasPoint ties access to the period a student's payment covers, so it unlocks and pauses automatically.

Work set for students to complete and submit by a due date.

Assignments give tutors evidence of understanding beyond test scores. In KlasPoint, students submit assignments in their portal and tutors return a grade with written feedback.

Recording which students were present at each class session.

Attendance is one of the earliest signs that a student is losing interest. KlasPoint records attendance through check-in codes and reports each student's attendance rate.

An AI assistant that answers operational questions from a business's own data.

Instead of navigating reports, staff ask questions in plain language. The KlasPoint copilot answers questions such as who owes fees or what sessions are coming up, using only the centre's own records.

An examination taken on a computer or device instead of on paper.

Many Nigerian standardised examinations are delivered as computer-based tests, so practising in the same format helps students prepare. KlasPoint runs timed CBT mock exams in the student portal.

A short code shown or read out in class that students enter to confirm they are present.

Because the code is only valid for a single session while check-in is open, it confirms presence without calling a register. KlasPoint uses four-digit codes that students enter in the portal or send on WhatsApp.

A group of students who enrol, learn and pay together.

In KlasPoint a cohort, also called a class group, contains one or more classes. Students pay for the cohort once, and its sessions, content and payment plans are organised around it.

Publishing learning content gradually on a schedule instead of all at once.

Drip release keeps students focused on the current topic and discourages rushing ahead. In KlasPoint, each learning material can be given a date from which it becomes available.

Using game elements such as points, levels and badges to motivate behaviour.

In education, gamification rewards effort and consistency as well as results. KlasPoint awards points for attendance and learning activity, with levels, streaks, badges and class leaderboards.

A ranked list showing participants' scores relative to one another.

Used carefully, leaderboards add friendly competition. KlasPoint shows each class group a leaderboard of points earned from attendance and learning activity.

Software for delivering, organising and tracking learning content and activities.

An LMS typically handles lessons, materials, quizzes, assignments and progress. KlasPoint includes LMS features alongside the business tools a tutorial centre needs, such as payments and attendance.

A practice examination that imitates the format and conditions of a real exam.

Mock exams help students manage time and nerves and show tutors who is ready. KlasPoint mock exams are timed, open within a set window and mark objective questions automatically.

A service that securely processes online payments between a customer and a business.

A payment gateway handles card and bank details so the business does not have to. KlasPoint uses Flutterwave to process student payments and settle each centre's share to its bank account.

A defined price and period that a payment covers, such as monthly or per semester.

Payment plans let a centre charge the way it already works. In KlasPoint, each plan has an amount and the number of days one payment covers, and students choose a plan when they pay.

The percentage a platform charges on each transaction processed through it.

Unlike a subscription, a platform fee only applies when money comes in. KlasPoint's platform fee is 5% of each successful payment on Starter and 8% on Pro, with no setup or monthly fee.

A stored collection of questions that can be reused to build tests and exams.

A question bank saves tutors from writing papers from scratch and makes it possible to give students different questions. KlasPoint can serve each student a random selection drawn from a mock exam's questions.

Granting permissions according to a person's role rather than individually.

Roles make it safe to delegate. KlasPoint has Owner, Admin and Teacher roles, each with a defined set of areas it can reach, enforced in the database.

How actively and consistently students take part in their learning.

Engagement shows up as attendance, completed work and participation, and it strongly shapes whether a student keeps coming. KlasPoint measures and rewards it through points, streaks and leaderboards.

A signed-in online space where students access their classes, content and account.

A good portal replaces scattered chats and files with one place to learn. The KlasPoint student portal is branded to each centre and shows classes, lessons, exams, payments and progress.

A private education business that offers paid classes outside formal school or university teaching.

In Nigeria, tutorial centres commonly prepare students for examinations such as WAEC and JAMB or support university courses. They run like small businesses, which is why KlasPoint combines teaching tools with fees, attendance and administration.

Software a business can present under its own brand instead of the vendor's.

White-labelling lets a business look professional without building software itself. On KlasPoint, each centre's website and student portal use the centre's own name, logo and colours.
