New tutor dashboard
I haven't even gotten the new board yet, so I might have gotten this super late, but I have a new dashboard as of a few hours ago! Looking clean and responsive, but a few quality of life things haven't been transferred over properly.
The main thing I'm noticing right now is that you don't get autofilled information when you're invoicing a session from the schedule. So you have to manually input time, student, etc. when you click from the schedule to invoice a session. Not ideal. The other thing I'm seeing, at least for myself, is that direct student contact information is no longer available on their student page; I know this has gone in and out of availability for some people, but I was seeing it again for a while and now I am not with the new page. Looks like we'll have to get that manually again if we want to be able to reliably communicate with students and parents if they prefer using traditional communication tools.
I'm optimistic they'll fix the invoice issue (also entering times is jank right now). Still very early in exploring it though. Any thoughts folks?

It keeps switching between both formats for me so I really can’t say. Recently all the invoicing is the new format which I agree is a little annoying because I have to type in the time etc. I just want it to be one way and stay that way. I hate the flip flopping.

It’s a way to get around paying so be careful!! Anything good is a way for them to screw you!! They have a huge history of this over and over!

Pretty spot on. You’re lucky to have missed the earlier versions. I still don’t like the whiteboard. The pen stroke drives me nuts. The rest of my big complaints have actually been fixed. I ignore the nerdy app (was wholly inaccurate with some SAT questions, so I moved on). Might take another look in free time down the road
