Custom Lesson Emails Add-on

Written by Teachworks Support

The Custom Lesson Emails Add-On allows you to design and send specific notification templates to students, parents, and family contacts for individual lessons. It is especially useful for communicating unique instructions, as it allows you to include detailed schedule information if the lesson is a part of a repeating series.

Enabling The Add-on

  1. Click on "Account" and then click on "Integrations & Add-ons".

  2. Use the search field at the top and enter "Customer Lesson Emails".

  3. Switch the toggle to "On" to enable the add-on.

Creating a Custom Lesson Email Template

Once you have enabled the add-on, the "Settings" option will become available, allowing you to build and customize your communication templates. The process for creating templates is identical for both students and families. Simply choose your target recipient group in the first step:

  1. Click either the "Manage Student Templates" or "Manage Family Templates" button, depending on who should receive the email.

  2. Click on the "Add Student Template" or "Add Family Template" button.

  3. Add a title for your template in the "Template Title" field.

  4. Enter a subject for the emails in the "Subject" field.

  5. In the "Message" field, personalize the message and include any important information by using the merge tags from the "Merge Tags" list on the right-hand side of the template.

  6. Submit the form to create the custom lesson email template.
