Add a student and set their age group

A name, an age group and at least one subject are required to create the record. Contacts and prices can follow later.

Open the New student form

Tutors adding someone new to their workspace.

The MomentDesk New student form with Full name, the Learner's age choices 18 or older, 14 to 17 and Under 14, an optional email, and a subject with its price per lesson in USD and usual duration.
The MomentDesk interface in English, shown with fictional names and records.

What you end up with

The student appears in your active list with their own record, ready for an invitation and a first lesson.

What to do

  1. Open the form

    From Students, choose Create student, or use Add student on Home.

  2. Enter the name

    Fill in Full name the way you want to read it in the schedule and in reports.

  3. Choose the learner's age

    Under Learner's age, choose 18 or older or 14–17. Under 14 is shown but cannot be saved: MomentDesk is not available for learners under 14. Choosing 14–17 adds a reminder that a parent or guardian has to confirm before the learner can sign in.

  4. Add an email if you have one

    Email (optional) can stay empty. A student without an email can still be invited with a personal link.

  5. Add subjects and rates

    Under Subjects, choose or type at least one subject. Set price later leaves the price unset; if you already know it, clear the checkbox and enter the amount in the displayed currency. Set Usual duration, min. Add subject adds another one to the same student. These values are filled into new lessons automatically and can still be changed per lesson.

  6. Save and continue

    Choose Save. For a learner aged 14–17, their record opens so you can invite a parent or guardian. For an adult learner during first setup, the lesson form opens with the student selected. When adding a student normally, their record opens.

Good to know

If something goes wrong

The form will not save.
Check the name, an allowed age group, at least one subject and the duration. If you are not setting the price later, enter a non-negative amount. Under 14 cannot be saved.
The student cannot sign in after you added them.
A learner aged 14–17 needs guardian consent: invite a parent or guardian and wait for confirmation. Then share the student’s personal link or sign-in code.
