### "Amazing for teaching and interactive whiteboarding! Best teaching platform I’ve used : )"

June 29, 2026

5.0

Overall, I am quite pleased with the platform, and it has really boosted my teaching experience compared to google meet. I would however recommend to the lessonspace team that they integrate a booking/scheduling feature similar to Zoom and google workspace, and possibly even integrated payments. This would really make it a complete product for tutors.

Pros

Lessonspace’s whiteboarding tool is absolutely amazing and makes lessons so much more interactive. Other platforms such as zoom, and miro also have this interactive whiteboarding feature, but lessonspace’s is simple to use, and I love that out has teaching specific tools, such as a calculator and cobrowser, that both the teachers and students can interact with at the save time, and moreover it even allows you to annotate the contents of the cobrowser.

Cons

I don’t like that you can’t scroll horizontally when you upload a document. Also it’s quite annoying that you can’t download recordings and can only watch them within the lessonspace player. When you look up how to download the recording on their own website, they expect you to play the recording and screen record it. This was quite disappointing for me. Asides from that it is an excellent platform for online teaching.

Alternatives considered

[Zoom Workplace](https://www.capterra.com/p/144037/Zoom-Video-Conferencing/)

Reason for choosing Lessonspace

Zoom had a lot of the same features plus a dew, but I found Lessonspac included more features at lower prices and so Lessonspace it was!

[Google Meet](https://www.capterra.com/p/176572/Google-Hangouts/)

Google meet did not have any whiteboarding area, unless you upgraded to google workspace which a found was a on the slightly pricier side. Lessonspace offered all the same features that I needed, minus a few, but at a great price so I knew a switch was necessary.

### "Teething troubles"

May 15, 2026

4.0

Overall, I've been very happy with Lessonspace, despite the aforementioned problem with PDF downloads and turning on mic/camera.

Pros

I love the simplicity of use and the simple fact, that I can collaborate on the PDF document with my students by scrolling vertically, with the horizontal axis locked. Most other platforms of this type don't let me do that, and it's easy to get lost on an infinite space with no boundaries or sense of proportions/size. Also, I like the ability to integrate Lessonspace with other platforms. Personally, I use it with TutorBird LMS and it's working smoothly.

Cons

Unfortunately, when I download the edited PDF with our annotations and my comments to give my student as homework (I do it multiple times every day), I can only get a giant canvas of white with tiny strip of the pages with our edits in the middle. I would like to get multiple-page PDF like the original document, just with the edits I've made during the lesson. Also, my students often experience the problem, or a delay with launching the camera and microphone at the start of a meeting. They don't turn on immediately, but it takes 5-10 seconds to do so. Then everything works as expected.

Good experience. Great user experience, fair pricing, reliable system, and a solid team that I really like a lot

Pros

Very user friendly and all off our past students absolutely loved it. The price is also good as well.

Cons

Nothing serious to be honest. I do wish they had a native tablet/iPad app as our students are all iPad users.

### "Great platform, terrible customer support"

January 27, 2026

2.0

This is primarily a B2B product. Tutoring companies such as mine, subscribe to the platform to deliver our product - teaching students. If something isn't working, we cannot do business. I feel that as soon as they signed me up, they disappeared. I have only ever has two issues: the first was with teacher on-boarding and the response I received to that question was one of the rudest responses I have ever had (my solution/workaround is to pay two of my teachers to train new tutors on my dime) and the second, with needing support for a teacher account. If this company had a robust support system and team, they would be a 10-star company.

Pros

The platform itself is great. The interface is good and my tutors and students really like it. Having all my tutors/teachers using the same platform makes our company look more professional. It integrates seamlessly with Teachworks which is fantastic. This is a big win for my small company and makes the downsides to this product \*almost\* worth it.

Cons

There is virtually NO support. No support line to call - only an AI-driven chat bot that takes days and days (if ever) to respond. Recently, what this meant for my business, is we had to resort to Zoom (at this point, for five sessions and counting) to tutor a student. All because there was some sort of glitch with a teachers registration and account. Something that possibly could have been solved in a five minute phone call. But despite an initial, unhelpful, response that took three days to receive, the issue is ongoing. I have reached out to sales, the support chat, email. NOTHING. I have gone from mildly irritated to totally irate. And this is student who works with other tutors in my organization and fully uses her LessonSpace account. We look unprofessional.

### "There is no competition YET, but it must keep innovating to keep SEN teachers "

January 22, 2026

4.0

There is no comparison, now, but I am not yet settled because being able to go beyond just sharing a screen was priceless.

Pros

I love that everything for your lesson, even for your semester, can be laid out and organized in one space. The fact that this space is so interactive and fun to use is what pulls me again and again.

Cons

I hated losing the ability to share games for children. This year I have seriously considered leaving because of that. Working with ND students who need little incentives like coloring or playing a game online together, the loss is large. Moreover, I wish there was a way to see the entire space in an aerial view to find missing items. I am always writing to people -wasting their valuable time, because I lose pieces of my main space. Also, the library is so limited. Better to come together with Canva.

Switched from

[Zoom Workplace](https://www.capterra.com/p/144037/Zoom-Video-Conferencing/)

Everything is here. It is a one-stop shop and the integration of tools recently is promising although quite expensive for teachers like myself who need to have a small number of students in an intervention space that spans many years of teaching. I also felt Zoom was less safe given pandemic events.

### "XL Tuition - Initial Feedback"

January 31, 2026

3.0

In general, I'm not sure how to describe it, but the platform is a bit "clunky" - i.e. not intuitive, and a little bit un-user-friendly. It would be fantastic if things could work more smoothly and obviously right from the beginning for our new tutors and learners. However, as we get used to the platform, I'm sure we'll become more fluent with it – and the awesome features hopefully will make it worthwhile.

Pros

I love the feature-rich environment – with graphs, equations, the library of numerous things to be able to bring in to a lesson. The infinite whiteboard, and multiple tabs gives a lot of versatility in creating teaching and learning space. The video display options are also pretty good. We hope that we can get the resources working nicely for our organisation and possibly even integrate Moodle. We'll see how it goes.

Cons

Unfortunately there are some challenges that we are finding. A number of our students join on their phones – and their browser may not be supported – so they only see a limited part of the screen. Even when turning the phone sideways, when still sees a very limited view – there doesn't seem to be a fullscreen option from the learners side. Tab management is a big area where I think things could be improved. Often, I'm finding that various tabs are "disappearing" behind the Main Room tab. Then what would be really helpful, is being able to save a tab, or archive it – rather than leaving it open as the only way to keep it. Without this feature, particular lesson space for the tutor and learner gets up with multitudes of tabs. I realise one can export and import, but it would be much better for it to be on the system – so, being able to save a tab, in that specific space – give it a name, and then reopen it when one wants to refer back to it.

### "Overall great with some minor flaws"

December 21, 2025

4.0

I have been using it for over a year now and it is my prefered space for quantitative teaching and demonstrations, though some tools can be improved such as the user of two screens for the teachers with different inputs and out puts

Pros

many tools for different forms of learning and student demographics, the integration of the library and co browser and screen share capabilities are great along with the equation tools

Cons

the intense learning curve, the tech glitches and can make lesson hard to navigate, some of my students get repeatedly kicked out of the space by the program itself causing much time to be devoted to going over what already has been said. There needs a more laptop friendly way to draw with the track pad and improve its accuracy

### "Amazing Tutoring Interface!"

January 28, 2026

5.0

My overall experience has been positive. All my families enjoy it and find it easy to use. The tools are accessible and helpful. Pricing is great and I have never had any issues!

Pros

I love how easy it is to use Lessonspace. I have a dedicated space for each student, and it saves our work from session to session so we can go back. I work mostly with elementary aged children and they are easily able to use the tools and even share their screen. They love the emojis and the extra things I can do such as fireworks, and confetti! I also love love love the co-browser which allows all participants to use my shared screen, making games and activities more engaging and fun! It was easy for me to learn how to use the tools as well as teach my students.

Cons

I wish I was able to create a board in one session and copy and paste it into another student's session. Other than that Lessonspace is a perfect A+!

### "A Great Platform with Some Room to Grow"

November 11, 2025

4.0

Once I've found the space I need among my pages of open spaces, I find working in Lessonspace very efficient. I don't worry that it won't open for me or won't function when it's time to teach. It allows me to work with multiple different tools and celebrate with my students when they succeed. Overall I'm very happy with it.

Pros

There are many things I like about using Lessonspace. As a videoconferencing tool, it's a huge step up from Skype, the platform I used to use. Overall, it's less glitchy, video quality is excellent, and sometimes when a student is having technical difficulties, it's able to point in the direction of what's wrong ("have student check" type of advice). Teaching multiple students at once is as easy as working one-on-one; no lag created by multiple users in the space. Screensharing is possible for both teacher AND student, and it is fast and easy (no cumbersome permissions or multiple steps). I like that I can pull in PDFs and work with them right in the space, as well as creating documents. And even though it's the least "necessary" feature, my favorite feature is the celebrations. Before Lessonspace, I actively thought to myself, I wish there were a way of sending animated confetti (like a text message can send) when my student finishes a big project, so we can celebrate together. And then I arrived in Lessonspace and found confetti AND fireworks, both of which I use excessively when my students succeed.

Cons

Lessonspace has a few places to grow that are not dealbreakers, but are really easy and must be fixed. I have dozens of current and former students, and in order to find the space I need, I have to just scroll for them. That's ridiculous--I should be able to access a list of spaces alphabetically as well as put some spaces into an "inactive" status so they aren't cluttering up my list. Similarly, I save every tab inside a Space with my long-term students so we can track everything we've done--but I have to scroll across the top of the screen instead of seeing them all as a Table of Contents. Those two changes would be huge usability improvements. From the document perspective, if a student is doing a writing project, the limitations of Lessonspace are clear--the document has no 'back/undo' button for changing your mind, no Track Changes to see how a piece has grown, and no Word Count feature, which is often something we need to track for outside expectations.

My company always had tutors use Skype prior to investing in LessonSpace because it was free and easy to set up. But just before I made the switch to LS, my Skype was growing INCREDIBLY unreliable and glitchy, and months after I made the switch Skype was discontinued forever. I was really glad I had LS set up and ready to go!

### "The Best Virtual Learning Platform"

September 2, 2026

5.0

Our nonprofit organisation teaches Coding and STEM subjects to underprivileged high school learners in partnership with the University of Cape Town and Stellenbosch University. Our volunteer university tutors have used several online teaching platforms, but they consistently tell us that none compares to Lessonspace. Overall, our experience has been excellent. Lessonspace is easy to use, interactive, and well suited to delivering engaging online Coding and STEM lessons.

Pros

What I like most about Lessonspace is its interactive whiteboard, which allows both the tutor and the student to edit content without requesting additional access. The coding tab, clear video and audio, and built-in mathematics tools for graphs, equations, and formulas are especially helpful when I teach Pure Mathematics, Accounting, and Physics. The platform also makes it easy for organisations to invite and manage teachers and students without complicated settings. I particularly value the lesson recordings, customisable background themes, and personal resource space, where I can save teaching materials and quickly display them during lessons.

Cons

The main feature I would like to see added is a built-in console or interpreter within the coding tab. This would allow tutors and students to write, run, and test code directly in Lessonspace without needing to use another platform.

### "A perfect platform for an online tutor or teacher"

May 23, 2025

5.0

Pros

After launching my tutoring business a few months ago, I spent a lot of time trialling platforms like Teams, Google Meet, Zoom and others. While each had their strengths, none were truly designed with teaching in mind — they’re built for meetings, not lessons. Then I discovered Lessonspace, and I’m so glad I did. It’s tailor-made for tutors and packed with tools that make online teaching smooth, interactive, and professional. Any minor features I thought could be improved are already being worked on, which shows just how proactive the Lessonspace team is. I also had a free demo call with \[sensitive content hidden\], who was fantastic at walking me through the platform. Overall, the subscription pricing is very reasonable for what’s included. Highly recommended for any online educator!

Cons

At times I have noticed some minor glitches, but nothing in comparison to all the other platforms I have tried.

### "Using Lessonspace as a Virtual Classroom"

October 23, 2025

5.0

Overall, Lessonspace is fabulous. It is perfect for teaching online. The pace allows lots of different functions within the space, including a new document, sticky notes and adding your own documents.

Pros

The functionality of the space. Allowing students to share the functions is brilliant in a lesson. It is value for money and the user interface is helpful for teaching online. I haven't used all the functionality yet, though.

Cons

It would be useful to split my spaces into folders by subject and/or student; I find that I can get confused about which spaces I'm working with on a given day.

### "A Rare Thing: Technology That Behaves Itself"

March 30, 2026

5.0

My overall experience has been consistently positive. It’s a platform that respects both the teacher’s time and the student’s experience. Lessons run smoothly, the tools support rather than hinder, and one is left with the rare sensation that the technology is on one’s side. In a world where many digital platforms seem to exist purely to test one’s patience, Lessonspace is a welcome exception: calm, competent, and quietly effective.

Pros

Lessonspace’s greatest strength is that it quietly gets on with its job. The value for money is excellent when you consider how much time it saves not having to troubleshoot mid-lesson—time which, as any teacher knows, is the only truly non-renewable resource. The learning curve is refreshingly gentle. One doesn’t need to embark on a spiritual journey or consult a series of obscure tutorials to understand how it works. You log in, and—brace yourself—it makes sense. In terms of online learning, it strikes an ideal balance: interactive without being chaotic. The notes and text tools are clear and responsive, and crucially, they don’t feel like an afterthought. Chat and communication features are similarly well-judged—present when needed, but not constantly clamouring for attention like an overenthusiastic assistant. Assignment management is straightforward and practical, which is precisely what one wants. No labyrinthine systems, no unnecessary flourishes—just a functional, reliable way to set and review work. Security, while not something one notices in a dramatic sense (which is rather the point), feels solid and reassuring. One isn’t left wondering who else might be wandering into the lesson uninvited.

Cons

If one were being determinedly critical, there are moments where one thinks, “Could this be just slightly more customisable?” A few additional tweaks or personalisation options might elevate it from excellent to faintly smug about its excellence. But these are minor quibbles—more the sort of thing one mentions to avoid sounding unreasonably content.

### "An intuitive and interactive platform that enhances online tutoring"

March 17, 2026

5.0

Overall, my experience with Lessonspace has been very positive. It provides a reliable and intuitive environment for online tutoring, making it easy to deliver engaging and interactive lessons. It has helped me improve how I explain concepts and connect with students, particularly through its visual and collaborative features. With a few minor improvements, it has the potential to be an even more powerful teaching platform.

Pros

What I liked most about Lessonspace was the interactive whiteboard and all-in-one functionality. It allows me to explain concepts clearly in real time using diagrams, annotations, and step-by-step working, which is especially useful for subjects like maths and science. Having video, chat, and teaching tools in one place makes sessions feel smooth and well-structured, without needing to switch between platforms.

Cons

At times, the platform can feel slightly limited in advanced features, such as exporting or saving work in more flexible formats.

Overall, lessonspace is a well-structured platform for students and teachers to have an interactive sesssion and pretty much simulates a live class session.

Pros

It's a good annotation and teaching platform for students to write on the board and upload practice problems. I also enjoy the leading mode allowing student and teachers to see the same content instantaneuously.

Cons

Sometimes there is a lag in the board images and after uploading like 3+ documents and creating multiple boards, there's usually a glitch with changing the pencil colors (the pencil color stays the same for a while even though you change it) and it only corrects itself if I switch boards

### "A Game-Changer for Interactive, Structured Online Teaching"

June 23, 2025

5.0

My overall experience with Lessonspace has been incredibly positive. As someone who designs and teaches structured literacy lessons, I need a platform that’s both flexible and reliable—and Lessonspace delivers on both fronts. It allows me to preload materials, guide students with visual and tactile tools, and keep sessions organized and consistent. The interactive features make it easy to bring curriculum to life in a virtual setting, and the tech is stable, which gives me peace of mind during lessons. Whether I’m working one-on-one or with a group, Lessonspace supports the kind of intentional, high-quality instruction I aim to provide.

Pros

As both a tutor and curriculum developer, what I appreciated most about Lessonspace was how intuitively it supported structured, interactive learning. The platform makes it easy to design and deliver lessons that are multisensory and responsive. I loved being able to preload visuals and activities, then guide students through them in real time using the shared whiteboard and drag-and-drop tools. From a curriculum standpoint, Lessonspace helped me bring my content to life—and from a tutor’s perspective, it kept students engaged and made managing the flow of the lesson effortless. It’s rare to find a platform that supports both creativity and consistency this well.

Cons

One limitation of Lessonspace is the lack of support for animations and embedded videos. As a curriculum developer, I rely heavily on dynamic visuals to bring lessons to life, and not being able to integrate short animations or directly embed video clips limits the range of engagement tools I can use. While the platform is excellent for interactive teaching, adding these features would take it to the next level for multimedia-rich instruction.

### "Tutor who loves lesson space for remote session!"

January 30, 2026

5.0

Super positive! This is a great platform for remote tutoring and would happily recommend it to any educator who does remote tutoring. Far superior to simply sharing your screen and having someone watch you work, and then having them share their screen afterwards.

Pros

I love the concept of the interactive whiteboard, and I feel that lesson space is very user friendly. Being able to take screenshots and drag them into the board, resize images and work collaboratively is amazing.

Cons

I haven't found anything about lesson space that I didn't like. The hardest part is taking the time to figure out what the buttons do but that is also part of the fun of it.

Pros

Its super easy to connect with students and the multiple tabs make organizing my spaces very easy and convenient.

Cons

I think the whiteboard could use more text options. Its a shame that I can't do simple things like bullet points or adjusting the color of individual words for emphasis.

### "My Classrooms in the sky are better than sitting next to my students!"

April 10, 2025

5.0

A dream. Every interaction has been wonderful, informative, and productive! I look as good as, nay, better than my competition--even the big corporations.

Pros

My classrooms in the sky just keep getting better and better. It's a neat experience for a tutor to have students say, "cool, look what I can do," while in our space. Responsive support and development teams beyond the pale. I love my BlakeSpaces!

Cons

Inability to snap notes taken on shared web pages before clearing. Currently, I screen shot the portion and then paste into our space. Not Elegant, but one does what the students need.

### "LOVE Lessonspace!"

March 15, 2026

5.0

This has been a phenomenal tool for tutoring, and the best platform I've used! The price is also extremely reasonable for all the features.

Pros

I love the ease of use, the convenience of everything for all of my students located in one location, and the whiteboard and sharing features that are available during sessions.

Cons

You cannot directly cut and paste pictures or problems into the whiteboard, they must be saved first and then imported.

Too expensive, or features weren't great

### "Lessonspace is a great online tutoring platform"

July 25, 2025

4.0

Overall, I think lessonspace is a great upgrade from the previous software. It seems to run a lot more smoothly in regards to connection issues as well as integrating alot of great features that helps the cooperative learning goals of Arc.

Pros

I like the simplistic and easy to use design that makes it easy to navigate around the space but only still contains all the necessary elements for a valuable cooperative learning tool. I also appreciate that there is not very many instances of connection issues either for myself or the student. The class spaces are organised clearly and accessibly.

Cons

If there are many whiteboard tabs open at once it can be hard to navigate to the final few tabs due to the limitations on space. This often occurs after a longer session where a few tabs were needed and when logging back in the same tabs remain open.

### "Great tool for interactive meetings"

April 19, 2026

4.0

Pros

It's easy to use when it works. From the beginning with sharing an invitation and entering a space for a meeting, it's very straightforward and user-friendly. There are many helpful features, like the library for accessing any documents that I'd like to use or even add myself, and cobrowser.

Cons

Cobrowser works when it works-which is not always. Frequently the page refreshes automatically in such a way that you need to re-sign in on a website every 20 minutes.

### "Wonderful Platform! Always recommending it to others!"

June 23, 2025

5.0

Its been a great experience. The LessonSpace team has been amazing with support and always open to suggestions to make it better for their clients, thank you!

Pros

The breakout rooms! The cobrowser! The other apps and features! Really enjoy the easy to navigate platform.

Cons

Being able to open two apps up at one time when using the breakout rooms. Having the ability to set a student up with an online tool while working with the other student in the different room will be next level :)

### "Solid Product I Strongly Recommend for Online Tutoring"

May 22, 2025

4.0

I have enjoyed using Lessonspace to provide online tutoring services. It is convenient, effective, easy to use, and easy to share with tutoring students.

Pros

It is fantastic that this single platform provides video conferencing and live joint-editing abilities alongside a stable repository of whiteboard and document materials to refer back to after video conferencing sessions end.

Cons

Sometimes the Lessonspace platform can be a bit laggy (although that may be my computer, not Lessonspace). It is also a bit inconvenient how the whiteboard and document tabs are separate interfaces. For example, I would love to be able to annotate a document tab with the whiteboard tools and it is inconvenient that documents uploaded as a whiteboard tab become uneditable. It seems to me that these two interfaces could be integrated into a single tab type that provides the best of both worlds.

### "Pricy, but good"

April 9, 2025

4.0

Good. It would be great if we have cheaper version where some features cut that not necessary for individual tutor like playback.

Pros

Everything, from tabs document, coding, and math equations.

Cons

I would like to achieve tabs, since I separate tabs for each unit and sometimes it is too much to show on tab bar.
