For music teachers

Tonara closed in 2023.
Your studio's practice log doesn't have to.

BandFlow lets you assign lessons, see the practice your students log against each one, and send feedback between lessons, so the next lesson starts from what they actually did.

What you get in BandFlow

Practice logged against each lesson

Students start a timer on the lesson; you see minutes, focus area and their reflection, per student and per week.

Lessons with assignments and checklists

Build a lesson once with tasks, files, songs and a checklist, and assign it to as many students as you like.

Practice tools at the level you choose

Attach an ear-training, rhythm or sight-singing drill to a task at a set difficulty, for example intervals at level 3.

Approve or send back

When a student marks a lesson complete you get a notification. Approve it, or comment and send it back for more work.

Goals you propose

Suggest a practice goal to a student; it appears in their goals and you see when they reach it.

Meetings and comments

Schedule lessons with email invites, and keep feedback on the lesson it belongs to.

  • BandFlow does not invoice students or take lesson payments. Keep invoicing in the tool you use today.

Questions

Do my students pay?

Yes. Each student joins your class from your invite link, gets a 30-day free trial, then pays for their own Student plan ($9.99 a month). You never bill them through BandFlow.

How do students join?

Every class has an invite link. Students open it, create an account and land in your class.

Can students practise without me seeing everything?

Yes. Only sessions they log against one of your lessons appear on your dashboard; their own practice tools stay private.

Can I try it first?

Yes: 30 days free, no card needed.
