Notepad

The Notepad is a private workspace for students to take notes, review AI-generated lesson summaries, and view lesson schedules created by their tutor.

Accessing the Notepad​

Go to Notepad in the sidebar. The Notepad is available when you have an active tutor relationship. If you work with multiple tutors, you have a separate notepad per tutor.

Private Notes​

Write personal notes using the rich text editor:

  • Format text with headings, bold, italic, lists, and links.
  • Notes are saved automatically.
  • Notes persist across sessions — use them as a running notebook for vocabulary, grammar rules, or personal reminders.

Your private notes are completely private — your tutor cannot see them. Similarly, your tutor has their own private notes about you that you cannot see.

AI Lesson Summaries​

After each recorded lesson, Voila generates an AI summary that appears in your Notepad. Each summary typically includes:

  • Topics discussed — what the lesson covered
  • Vocabulary — new words and phrases introduced
  • Grammar points — structures practiced
  • Corrections — mistakes you made with explanations
  • Suggestions — vocabulary expansion, extra content, and light practice ideas

Summaries are also sent to you by email after the lesson.

Lesson Schedule​

If your tutor creates a published lesson schedule using the AI Lesson Schedule Builder, it appears in your Notepad. The schedule shows:

  • A multi-session plan with topics and objectives for each lesson
  • Activities and focus areas per session
  • A visual overview of the learning path

Lesson schedules are created by your tutor and updated as your learning progresses. See My Students for how tutors build lesson schedules.
