The Tutor Plan for language tutors with 5–15 active students

Run your whole class's vocab from one cockpit. $19 a month, five students included.

Snap your vocab handouts and assign them to up to 15 students under your tutor account. Edit any student's list, swap words, pause drips on their behalf — or hand them the wheel and let them self-drive. Your students don't pay a cent; the seats are bundled into your plan. Dashboard, scanner, white-label welcome — included. pinguingo retail is $9/student/mo; you pay roughly a third of that.

$19/mo for 5 students included, +$3/mo per additional student up to 15 (so a full class of 15 = $49/mo, all-in). Founders' rate locked in for life — capped at the first 100 tutors. 30-day money-back guarantee, no questions asked.

The honest problem

You taught the words. They forgot the words. By Lesson 8 they tell you they're “not really making progress.”

Last Tuesday you taught 24 useful words. You sent the list on WhatsApp. You added the deck. You said “please review before we meet again.”

Tonight you start the lesson, run a quick warm-up — and seven of them are blanks. Again. You burn the first ten minutes re-teaching the same vocabulary you already charged for. Their progress slows. Yours does too.

The hard truth: your students don’t have a learning problem. They have a finding-30-quiet-minutes-after-work-to-study problem. The Anki deck you sent is sitting on a desktop they haven’t opened. The PDF is buried in their downloads. Meanwhile they spend two hours a day in WhatsApp.

Then around lesson 10, the cancellation message arrives: “I love your lessons, but I feel like I’m not improving fast enough.” They blame themselves. They blame the language. Sometimes they blame you. Either way, the booking goes away.

Here’s what changes: the words you taught come to your students — in the apps they already live in, on the schedule you set, scanned straight from the materials you already prepared. By lesson three you stop re-teaching last week’s vocab. By lesson eight, the “I’m not improving” email stops coming. You earn the next package.

How it works for tutors

Three steps. Five minutes per lesson.

You teach the lesson the way you already do. pinguingo handles everything that happens between lessons.

01

Snap your handout

Photograph the page, slide, or whiteboard at the end of the lesson. The Class-to-Chat Scanner extracts the vocab, translates it, and asks you which words to drip. Twenty seconds. No retyping.

02

Pinguingo drips them to your students

Your students see "[Your Name]'s vocab assistant" on WhatsApp. One YES reply, no app to install. Words land between meetings, on the commute, in line for coffee — only in the windows you set. Edit any student's list, swap words, or pause for them at any time from your dashboard. Students can self-drive too.

03

Walk into Monday with a brief

Every Monday morning, you get a one-pager per student: words mastered, words still fumbled, words to drill in tonight's lesson. You stop guessing where to start. The first ten minutes earn their fee.

Setup for your first student takes under two minutes. Each new student is a single shareable link.

Class-to-Chat Scanner

Photograph the whiteboard.
Your whole class is studying it before dinner.

Your handout, your slide, the page from Aula Internacional on your desk, your scribbled notes from the lesson. pinguingo reads the page, extracts the vocabulary, translates it, and assigns it to every student you choose — in one tap.

1

Point & Scan

Snap the page. Any layout — handouts, slides, textbook pages, whiteboards, screenshots, even your scribbled notes from the lesson.

2

Assign to students

Tap the words you want them to keep. Pick which students get this list (one, a group, or your whole roster). We translate, we add native audio, you move on.

3

They learn on the train

Words drip into their WhatsApp during the windows you set. They reply easy or hard. By next lesson, the list isn't a list anymore — it's vocabulary they actually use in the sentences you ask.

What you actually get

Built for tutors who teach the words.
Not for the students who flake on review.

Class-to-Chat Scanner

Stop retyping vocab into yet another tool.

Photograph any handout, slide, page, or whiteboard. pinguingo extracts the words, translates them, and queues them to your students in under 30 seconds.

WhatsApp & Discord delivery

Your students study without ever opening a study app.

Words land in the messengers they already check 47 times a day. No new app to install. No password reset. No login they'll forget.

Per-Student Retention Dashboard

Know exactly which words to drill before the lesson starts.

Words mastered, fumbled, or missed — broken out per student. Click a name, see their last 50 words. Tonight's lesson plan writes itself.

The Pre-Lesson Brief

Walk into Monday already knowing where each student is weak.

A one-page email every Monday morning, per student: top fumbles, retention curve, suggested drill list. Free up the first 10 minutes of every lesson.

White-Label Welcome

Your students associate the progress with you, not us.

Students see "[Your Name]'s vocab assistant" on the welcome message and weekly digest. pinguingo runs in the background.

Two-Cockpit Class Management

Edit any student's list yourself — or let them drive.

Add words, remove words, change drip windows, pause sessions — for one student or your whole class of 15. Your students keep the same controls on their side. Two cockpits, one plane: tutor-set, student-edited, both views in sync.

Everything in the box

Seven things, $1,381 of tooling, from $19/mo.

One $19 plan covers your first five students, all the tooling below, and the bonus that’s about to disappear when we hit 100 tutors.

Corepinguingo Tutor Plan — the core

$1,032/yr saved vs. retail (15 students)

Assign vocab to every student under your tutor account. We drip the words on WhatsApp/Discord with native-speaker spoken audio, handle delivery, hosting, and updates. Bundled-seat pricing: $19/mo for 5 students, +$3/student up to 15. Your students never see a bill.

The Class-to-Chat Scanner

$240/yr value

Snap any handout, slide, page, or whiteboard. We OCR it, translate it, queue it to your students in 30 seconds. No retyping vocab into another tool ever again.

The Per-Student Retention Dashboard

$240/yr value

Words mastered, fumbled, or missed — broken out per student. Click a name to edit their list directly: add words, remove words, change drip windows, pause sessions. Your students still have their own controls on their side. Two cockpits, one plane.

The Pre-Lesson Brief

$144/yr value

Every Monday morning, a one-pager per student in your inbox: top fumbles, retention curve, suggested drill list. Walk into the lesson with the first 10 minutes already planned.

The White-Label Welcome

$120/yr value

Students see "[Your Name]'s vocab assistant" on every drip and weekly digest. pinguingo runs invisibly. The reviews mention you.

The 30-Second Student Onboarding Link

$90/yr value

The Founders' Onboarding Sprint

$199 one-time value

First 100 tutors only — a 25-min screen-share with the founder to import your first three students, scan your first handout, and ship your first drip together.

Founders' base rate ($19/mo) locked in for life for the first 100 tutors. After the cap, the base moves to $29/mo and the Founders' Onboarding Sprint is removed.

The Tutor Plan

$19 a month. Five students included. $3 a head after that.

Bundled-seat pricing for tutors. Your students don't pay anything — their access is rolled into your plan. A full class of 15 students costs less than two retail Premium subs.

Our risk reversal

30 days free. Then 30 days money-back. Then $0 if it’s not working.

Take the first 30 days completely free — full plan, up to 15 student seats, every feature, every drip, no card charged. If you stay past day 30 you’ll be billed $19/mo (plus $3/extra student); if you decide in the next 30 days that it’s not working, email us one line and we refund every cent paid. Your students keep the vocabulary they learned. You keep your dashboard exports. No exit interview, no “are you sure?” loop.

Stacked guarantee: 30-day free trial (Anti-Risk) + 30-day unconditional money-back (Trial). The bar for refund is your judgement, not ours.

FAQ

The questions every tutor asks before they hand out the first link.

They won't have to. Tutor pricing is bundled-seat: you pay $19/mo for five student seats, +$3/mo for each additional student up to 15. Your students never see a bill, never sign up for anything, never install an app. They reply YES once on WhatsApp and they're in. If you have between 5 and 15 active students and you teach with vocab handouts, slide decks, or textbook pages — this fits. If you only run free conversation classes with no vocab assignments, it doesn't.

Still on the fence? Try it free for 30 days — no card charged until day 31, money-back for 30 days after that.
