About

Session Review Learner

Features
Read full description

Session Review Learner is the student side of Session Review. Your teacher writes up each lesson in the Session Review Educator app and sends it to you, so you always know what you covered and what to practise before the next one. Your teacher gives you a six-character code or a QR card. Enter it once, and their sessions appear here. In a class, band or squad? Everyone joins with the same one code — 5 or 500 of you — and reads the same session notes. WHAT YOU GET • Every session your teacher sends, with the date and lesson number • Classes and one-to-one teachers, kept apart and clearly labelled • What you covered, what's next, and any special notes • A PDF of each session to keep, print or share • Your own private notes, which only you can see • Trash, so a note you deleted can be brought back • Download your data or delete your account, any time, from Settings • Works on iPhone and iPad, and stays in step across your devices SIMPLE AND ONE-WAY Session Review runs one way, from teacher to student. There is no chat, no posting and no feed — just the notes your teacher chose to share, and the ones you write for yourself. PERFECT FOR Students and parents working with a music teacher, private tutor or coach who uses Session Review. FREE AND PRO Session Review Learner is free to download. Connecting to your teacher, seeing every session they have sent, and writing your own notes cost nothing. Session Review Pro is an optional annual subscription that adds: • Reading what's inside a session your teacher sent • Saving and sharing the PDF report • Connecting to more than one teacher (a teacher's classes never count as extra) Session Review Pro costs AUD $9.99 per year and renews automatically unless cancelled at least 24 hours before the end of the period. Payment is charged to your Apple ID at confirmation of purchase. Manage or cancel any time in Settings › Apple ID › Subscriptions. Prices are shown in your local currency in the app before you buy.
