Instructors Portal vs Lesson Diary

Plan your driving lessons, track pupil progress and manage your instructor business with Instructors Portal. Keep bookings, feedback, mock driving tests, earnings and expenses together, with a learner experience that supports preparation between lessons. START FREE Start with up to 5 lifetime learner places and 4 lessons per learner: 20 lessons in total, with no subscription required and no trial countdown. Recurring bookings use the same allowance. Upcoming bookings reserve a lesson place; cancelling them releases it. Completed lessons and learner places stay used, even after deletion or archiving. Upgrade to Pro for unlimited learners and lessons. PLAN YOUR TEACHING DAY Manage individual and recurring lessons in your calendar. See upcoming appointments, check your route overview and use reminders to keep track of your day. Open a pre-lesson briefing to review recent feedback, recorded progress and the learner's next focus. MAKE PROGRESS CLEAR Record lesson feedback and assessments across 27 driving skills. Keep lesson summaries, next focus, milestones and mock test results in each learner's record. Follow up on outstanding feedback from Home and keep a useful history for future lessons. ASK AVEN Use Aven to ask about saved learner progress, prepare lesson ideas, find availability and review your schedule. Follow-up questions keep the conversation moving, and relevant shortcuts take you to the records you need. Review suggestions and confirm bookings yourself. Generative AI features require a compatible device with Apple Intelligence enabled and available in a supported language and region. KEEP YOUR BUSINESS IN VIEW Track earnings, unpaid balances and expenses. Review teaching hours and business summaries alongside your lesson records, so you can spend less time piecing together your admin. SUPPORT LEARNING BETWEEN LESSONS Learner Mode includes illustrated skill guides, interactive road scenes, show me, tell me practice, private notes and personal confidence tracking. Learners can start without an instructor invitation. Connecting to their instructor adds shared lessons, feedback, assessments and mock results, with Aven support when relevant instructor feedback is available. Personal confidence stays separate from instructor assessments. BACK UP YOUR RECORDS Use the app's backup and export tools to keep a copy of your records, including iCloud backup options for your instructor workspace. PRO SUBSCRIPTIONS Monthly and annual Pro subscriptions unlock unlimited learners and lessons. Prices and any eligible offers are shown in the app before purchase.

Lesson Diary is a diary for UK driving instructors. The diary is the centre of the app. Bookings, pupil records, routes, reviews and payments all work around it. YOUR DIARY See your day, week or month. Book, move or cancel a lesson in a few taps. The app warns you when two lessons clash. Colour your lessons by type, download them, and send lesson reminders to your pupils. FILL THE GAPS Free slots show in your diary. Offer a gap to your pupils by email or text. You choose who gets the offer, and pupils book the slot from it. BOOKINGS THAT LAND IN YOUR DIARY Share your booking link or QR code. Pupils send a lesson request, and you review it on your phone. Set your lesson types, prices and the areas you cover, so you only get requests you can accept. PUPIL RECORDS Every pupil has one record: lessons, progress checks, notes, tests and a statement of what they owe. Update it after each lesson. Open it before the next one. LESSON ROUTES Start a drive and the app records the route. It saves with the lesson, with notes you add on the way. You decide whether pupils see it. Switch it on in settings when you want it. YOUR NUMBERS See your lessons each week, what you were paid each week, new pupils, and how your pupils are progressing. Your dashboard also shows booking requests, pupils who owe you money and driving tests this week. REVIEWS Ask your past pupils for a review in one go. Share your review link, or make a flyer from your reviews. WHO HAS PAID See who has paid and who owes you. Mark a lesson as paid in a tap. STANDARDS CHECK Stay on top of REPORTS Get reports about your business in one setup, learner, lessons, balances, expense, income, standards check - everything in one place. ONE ACCOUNT, EVERY DEVICE Your phone stays in sync with your Lesson Diary account on the web. BUILT FOR ONE INSTRUCTOR No fleet tools. Lesson Diary is for the instructor who runs their own diary, pupils and business. New here? Create a free account at lessondiary.co.uk, then sign in on your phone.
