From Planning to Reporting: How Bobbin Seamlessly Supports Great Lessons
Bobbin is the new AI-powered tutoring platform created by the team behind TutorCruncher. After more than a decade in the tutoring sector, we realised that, while there are great tools for managing your business behind the scenes, tutors are increasingly using a complex combination of tools not made for teaching and learning to deliver lessons.
That’s where Bobbin comes in. It weaves together your workflow, using smart, curriculum-focused AI, to create lesson plans, track progress, provide detailed lesson reports, and help you understand what’s working in your lessons.
It aims to save you time and improve the learning experience, because better learning means better student outcomes, happier clients, and lower churn for you.
So how does Bobbin work? Here we break down the key features that make Bobbin the best new tool out there for tutoring.
Before the lesson
If you or your tutors are spending hours per week creating lesson plans, materials, and keeping track of what’s been covered, this one’s for you.
Bobbin creates curriculum-focused lesson plans in minutes, tailored to your students and edited by you. You can even ask it to include details you know your students will love, like a Physics activity based on their favourite sport, to keep students engaged.
Planning no longer takes hours, so you can spend more time in lessons, delivering great learning. Plus, if your business is growing, you can onboard tutors knowing that they can hit the ground running, delivering lessons that are consistent with your other tutors.
During the lesson
Bobbin integrates Lessonspace ‘under the hood’. This means you get everything customers love about Lessonspace, from the interactive whiteboard, persistent content that doesn’t disappear between lessons, and comprehensive subject-specific tools, plus tools to reduce admin and improve lesson quality.
Bobbin works behind the scenes to record and transcribe both online and in-person lessons. It uses this information to analyse student progress and help you with your post-lesson admin.
The most important part is that Bobbin and Lessonspace are made for tutoring. They incorporate safeguarding and privacy tools that mean you can feel confident using AI. No personal information is ever passed to the LLM, and Bobbin is fully GDPR compliant.

After the lesson
This is the part that frequently gets an ‘oh wow’ from our customers.
After the lesson, Bobbin takes the transcript and creates a detailed, client-ready report for parents, students, and tutors. So everyone is kept in the loop about how the lesson went.
Tutors can edit their reports before sending. The result is clients who know they’re getting consistent, detailed feedback about how their child is doing, and you get an overview of how your tutors are performing.
Lesson analytics also mean you can track student progress throughout their lessons - giving you great data to promote your tutoring business to new clients and the confidence of knowing that you can spot learning gaps with ease.
Hear from our customer, Reshmi Patel of Key Sounds UK, on how Bobbin is saving her tutors as much as 40 minutes per day.
Sounds great, right? Happier clients, easier onboarding for tutors, and more oversight for you. All without sending your administrative workload through the roof.
