My Students Can't Edit Their Names

Sometimes students need to update their names, and as a teacher, you can make this possible by adjusting the class settings. Follow these simple steps to allow your students to edit their personal information.

Pro-Tip:

  • After saving the changes, ask your students to log out and log back in.
  • If your students log in with Google, they won't be able to change their names on Typing.com. Instead, they'll need to update their name in their Google settings.

Step 1: Log in to your Teacher Portal HERE.

Step 2: Click on “Classes” 


Step 3:Hover over the name of the class and click the "Edit" icon on the right-hand side.

Step 4: Click on the “Advanced Options” tab.

Step 5: Uncheck “Disable account changes” and click “Save all changes”

That's it! Now your students can edit their names. Just remind them to log out and back in to see the changes. Keep up the great work in supporting your students! 😊
