Hi Product Hunt 👋 I’m Chris, a Physics teacher and tutor, and I built CanvasForTutors because I wanted a better way to teach visually online. Most whiteboards are designed as general collaboration tools. I wanted something built around the actual workflow of a tutor or teacher: preparing lesson boards, working with a student live, importing questions and resources, using subject-specific tools, keeping work organised, and coming back to the same lesson later. CanvasForTutors has already been used in real tutoring sessions with students, so a lot of the development has come directly from what works — and what gets in the way — during an actual lesson. Some of the features available now include live student collaboration, cloud-saved boards, multi-page lessons, image and PDF uploads, equations, graphs, circuit symbols, geometry and teaching tools, reusable boards and templates, and an installable desktop/mobile app experience. This is still the beginning. I’m building CanvasForTutors into a complete teaching workspace for independent tutors and educators. I’d really value feedback from teachers, tutors and anyone working in EdTech — particularly on what would make this more useful in your own teaching.
