Study Material Sharing
Software for Coaching Centres

Share notes, PDFs, and video lectures with students batch-wise from one organised library. Store class recordings students can rewatch anytime. Track who actually opened every material. No more WhatsApp file dumps or scattered Google Drive links.

How Most Coaching Centres Share Study Material Today

And why it fails students, even when teachers work hard.

Notes sent on WhatsApp — students scroll up for 20 minutes to find last month's PDF.
All materials organised by subject and chapter in the student app. Searchable, always accessible.
Google Drive link shared in a group — no idea who downloaded it, who ignored it.
Access tracking shows exactly which students opened each material and when.
Class recording uploaded to YouTube — visible to everyone, not just enrolled students.
Recordings stored batch-wise in TutorDesk — only that batch's students can access them.
New student joins mid-term — needs all past notes separately messaged to them.
Add student to batch — they instantly get access to all materials already in that batch's library.

What is Study Material Sharing Software for Coaching Centres?

Study material sharing software for coaching centres is a digital library where teachers upload notes, PDFs, video lectures, and class recordings — and students in specific batches access them from a mobile app anytime. Instead of sending files on WhatsApp or sharing Google Drive links, all materials are organised by subject and chapter, assigned batch-wise, and trackable — so teachers know which students actually opened and reviewed each resource before the next class.

This module covers the student-facing resource library — sharing, organising, and tracking access to materials. For conducting live online classes in real time, see the Live Class module. When a live class ends, its recording is automatically saved into this library for that batch. For creating and assigning tests to students, see the Assessment module.

From Teacher Upload to Student Screen — Five Steps

Everything is automatic after the first upload. Students never need to ask for material again.

1
Teacher Uploads
PDF, video, or notes uploaded and tagged with subject, chapter, and batch.
2
Batch Assigned
Material is visible only to selected batches. Other batches do not see it.
3
Student Notified
Students in that batch get an in-app notification: "New material added for Physics Chapter 7."
4
Student Accesses
Opens from app. Views PDF, watches video, or downloads for offline reading.
5
Teacher Tracks
Access report shows who opened, who skipped, and video completion percentages.
Feature Breakdown
Four Capabilities That Replace Your WhatsApp Groups and Drive Folders

Every feature built for Indian coaching centres — not enterprise LMS complexity.

Organised, Batch-wise Study Material Library

Every resource your coaching centre has ever created — in one library, organised by subject and chapter, visible only to the batches it belongs to. Upload once; it's always there for every student who needs it.

  • All formats supported: PDF notes, PowerPoint slides, MP4 video lectures, audio recordings, and external links (YouTube, articles) — all in one library.
  • Subject → Chapter hierarchy: Organise materials as Physics → Thermodynamics → Chapter 5 Notes so students find exactly what they need without scrolling.
  • Batch-wise visibility: JEE Batch A students see only JEE Batch A materials. NEET students see theirs. A teacher can share one material with multiple batches simultaneously when needed.
  • Scheduled release: Set a release date so Chapter 6 notes only appear after Chapter 5 has been taught — no early access that disrupts your lesson sequence.
  • One update, all students: Edit or replace a file and every student automatically sees the updated version — no resending.

Class Recording Storage & Student Access

Every live class conducted through TutorDesk is automatically saved, tagged to the correct batch and subject, and made available to students in the library. Students who missed a class can catch up; students who attended can revise.

  • Auto-saved after every class: When a live session ends, the recording is processed and added to the batch's library under the correct subject — no teacher action needed.
  • Tag before publishing: Optionally add a title, chapter tag, and a note ("starts from the derivation at 14:00") before making it visible to students.
  • Batch-controlled access: Recordings are visible only to the enrolled batch — not shared publicly, not accessible to other batches.
  • Retention control: Set how long past recordings remain accessible — keep the full year's library open, or expire old chapters after a set period.
  • Upload externally recorded videos: Already have recordings from Zoom or your phone? Upload them directly to the library and assign to a batch.

Student App Access & Offline Download

Students access everything from the TutorDesk app on their Android or iOS phone — no laptop needed, no browser login, no password reset emails. For students in areas with unreliable internet, materials can be downloaded for offline access directly in the app.

  • Instant notification on upload: When a teacher adds new material, every student in that batch receives an in-app notification — they don't need to check manually.
  • Organised by subject in the app: Students see their materials grouped by subject and chapter — not a flat list of 50 files to scroll through.
  • Offline download: Download PDFs and videos within the app for reading or watching without internet — useful for students in Tier 2 and Tier 3 cities.
  • Batch-only visibility: Each student sees only the materials assigned to their batch. No confusion, no accidental access to other batch resources.
  • No account needed beyond enrolment: Once a student is enrolled in a batch, their app automatically shows all materials assigned to that batch from day one.

Material Access Tracking & Engagement Reports

Know which students are actually studying the material you share — not just which ones downloaded it. TutorDesk shows you who opened each resource, when they opened it, and how much of a video they watched before stopping.

  • Per-material access report: For any uploaded file, see a list of students with their access status — Opened, Downloaded, Not Yet Viewed.
  • Video completion rate: For video lectures, see what percentage of the video each student watched. Identify students who stopped at 20% — before you assume they studied.
  • Batch-level summary: "35 out of 42 students in JEE Batch A have opened the Chapter 5 notes" — at a glance before the next class.
  • Not-viewed reminder: Automatically send a WhatsApp nudge to students who have not opened a material by a date you set — no manual chasing.
  • Feeds into Progress Tracking: Material engagement data is linked to student records in the Progress Tracking module so coordinators see study habits alongside test performance.

Who Uses This
Every Coaching Format That Needs a Better Way to Share Materials

From a solo tutor with three batches to a 10-branch institute with 50 teachers.

🎯

JEE & NEET Coaching Institutes

Share chapter-wise notes, formula sheets, and past paper solutions batch-wise. Store recorded doubt sessions so students can rewatch before exams without taking up live class time.

📚

School Subject Tuition Centres

Upload notes aligned to each class and board. Students who missed a session can catch up from recordings without the teacher needing to re-explain in the next class.

🌐

Online & Hybrid Coaching Institutes

Online students who join from different cities have exactly the same access to materials as in-person students — no separate sharing, no extra WhatsApp groups for online students.

🏗️

Multi-Branch Coaching Chains

One teacher's excellent notes can be shared to the same batch across all branches simultaneously — without emailing, printing, or WhatsApp forwarding across campuses.

✏️

SSC & Banking Exam Coaching

Share current affairs PDFs monthly, upload speed-maths tip sheets, and keep a growing video library of concept sessions that students revisit as their exam date approaches.

👤

Individual Tutors with Multiple Batches

A solo tutor managing 3–4 batches can keep separate material libraries per batch without confusion — no wrong-batch file sharing, no accidental WhatsApp floods.

Frequently Asked Questions

Questions coaching teachers and owners ask before switching from WhatsApp to TutorDesk's study library.

What is study material sharing software for coaching centres?
Study material sharing software for coaching centres is a digital library where teachers upload notes, PDFs, video lectures, and class recordings — and students in specific batches access them from a mobile app anytime. Instead of sending files on WhatsApp or sharing Google Drive links, all materials are organised by subject and chapter in one place, assigned batch-wise, and trackable — so teachers know which students actually opened each resource.
How is the LMS different from the Live Class module?
The Live Class module is for conducting real-time online classes — video sessions, in-class attendance, and live interaction. The LMS (Study Material Library) stores what comes before and after a class: pre-class reading material, post-class notes, chapter PDFs, and recordings of past classes students can rewatch. When a live class ends, its recording is automatically saved in the library for that batch. The two modules complement each other.
Can students access study materials from their mobile phone?
Yes. All materials are accessible via the TutorDesk student app on Android and iOS. Students can view PDFs, watch video lectures, and access class recordings from their phone. For areas with unreliable internet, students can download materials within the app for offline access.
Can I share different materials with different batches?
Yes. Every material is assigned to one or more specific batches when uploaded. JEE Batch A students see only their materials. NEET students see theirs. You can share the same material with multiple batches simultaneously when needed, and students outside the assigned batches cannot access it.
Can I see which students have viewed the materials I shared?
Yes. TutorDesk's access report shows, for each uploaded material, which students opened it, when they opened it, and for video lectures, what percentage of the video they watched before stopping. You can send an automatic WhatsApp reminder to students who have not opened a material by a date you set.
Are class recordings automatically saved in the library?
Yes, for classes conducted through TutorDesk's Live Class module. Once a session ends, the recording is processed and added automatically to the LMS library under that batch's subject. Students access the recording from their app. You can also upload externally recorded videos from Zoom or your phone directly to the library.
Can I control when students get access to new materials?
Yes. When uploading a material, you set a release date. The material appears in students' apps on that date, not before. This is useful for releasing chapter notes in sequence as the syllabus progresses — Chapter 6 notes stay hidden until you've finished Chapter 5 in class.

Give Every Student Access to Every Resource. Always.

No more WhatsApp file hunts. One organised library, batch-wise access, and tracking built in.
