Manage Your Account (Teacher)

Taking control of your account settings ensures a seamless and efficient experience on our platform. Whether you’re updating personal information, managing organization details, or enhancing security, this guide will walk you through the steps to manage your Teacher account effectively.

Step 1: Log in to your Teacher Portal HERE.

Step 2: Hover over your name on the top right corner and then click “Account.”

Pro-Tip: You can also access your account settings by clicking directly on your name in the top right corner.

Personal Information: On your Account page, you can update various personal details, including your first name, last name, email, phone number, and time zone. Remember to click the blue "Update Personal Info" button to save any changes made.

Pro-Tip: If you don't see a field to change your email, that's probably because you use Google SSO (single sign-on) to log into your account. If that's the case, you can submit a request to remove the SSO at support@typing.com.

Organization Details: Here, you can modify your organization's details. Any changes you make will apply (and be visible) to all teachers under the same organization. If you don’t see fields to change the organization’s details, it’s likely because a school or district administrator controls them. Remember to click the blue "Update Organization" button to save changes.

Note: If you have a PLUS membership, you can also add your organization's logo.

Change Password: To change your password, scroll down below the personal information and organization details section, and select "Change Your Password."

A pop-up box will prompt you to enter your current password, new password, and confirm the new password. Click "Update Password" to save changes.

Note: If you are unable to change your password, you can submit a request at support@typing.com.

Convert Your Account: The Account page is also where you're able to upgrade your account to a School Administrator or District Administrator. Click on 'Convert Account Type For Free' and choose the appropriate button for the type of account upgrade you want. 

Note: To change the role of your account (Teacher, School Admin, District Admin, Billing Admin) you will need to send an email to support@typing.com to make the change. 

Account Types:

• Classroom: A Classroom account can have a single teacher (you) and any number of classes and students. You can only add teachers if you have a "School Account." 
• School: A "School" account can have any number of school administrators, teachers, classes, and students. After converting, you can invite other administrators and teachers (they must have a Typing.com account before you can add them). You will retain all classes, students, and data associated with your account.
• District: A "District" account can have any number of district admins, schools, school admins, teachers, classes, and students. After converting, you can invite other administrators, and teachers (they must have a Typing.com account before you can add them). You will retain all classes, students, and data associated with your account.

Pro-Tip: If you need to add co-teachers to your classes, you need to have a School or District account. 

That’s it! Managing your account is now a breeze. If you have any questions or need further assistance, our support team is always here to help.
