Three roles and how to enter

Student, teacher, and organization login identities; organization side includes Organization admin and optional academic admin.

Open DodoSpeak App

DodoSpeak uses one App login page with three identities: student, teacher, organization.
You can open it in a browser, PWA, or Android/iOS App (see Devices and access).

If you use DodoSpeak Oral (embeddable speaking) instead of this App, Oral Console roles are learner / publisher / manager / developer. See How to use Oral Console.

Day-to-day teaching uses student / teacher. Choosing Organization opens the organization console—the account may be an Organization admin or an optional academic admin. The login page does not add a fourth identity tab; permissions follow the account. Some older copy may still say “class admin”—that means the same role as academic admin.

On desktop, use the left main nav; on phone / narrow screens, use the bottom tab bar. Both show the same items in the same order. Below we call both “main nav.”

Organization admins add academic admins—see Manage team: add academic admins. How Organization admins find settings: App settings: entry and layers.

Student: inside Speaking

After Speaking, four sub-pages open (default To-do):

Self practice · To-do · Speaking tasks · Multi-party dialogue · Speaking exam

Details: Speaking tabs overview.

Teacher: Tasks · Reports · more tools (do not mix)

Entry	Where	Use
Tasks	Main nav	Assign and manage practice tasks (CTA: Assign speaking task / Assign speaking exam); published list can filter “speaking practice / speaking exam”
Reports	Main nav	Default Class; same page tabs Export / reports, Trends / curve
Export / reports	Reports tab (Home “Export / reports”, Me → More secondary)	Preview academic report templates; export CSV / print PDF
Trends / curve	Reports tab (Home “Trends / curve”, Me → More secondary)	Task completion trends (by class / month)
Speaking exam	Tasks dual CTA (primary); Me → More (secondary)	Dedicated page to assign and manage formal speaking exams
Messages	Inside Me; top-bar envelope opens Me	Teaching inbox

Organization admin: Settings hub and Me

Organization admin top-level nav has four items: Home · Messages · Settings · Me. Directory, import, plan, logs, branding, and so on are not top-level sidebar items—they open from Settings entry groups (see App settings: entry and layers). Messages is a dedicated inbox page; Me holds profile, account actions, and in-app notifications (messages are not repeated under Me). Home can also shortcut into Export / reports and Trends / curve (landing on Reports tabs).

academic admin: classes and Reports at top level

Academic admin top-level has five fixed items: Home · Messages · Classes · Reports · Me. Day-to-day class ops and reports are one tap away; Reports three tabs match teachers, but Class leans create/close ops (see Organization & academic: Reports). Not finding plan / branding / practice-policy editors is expected.

Is academic admin required?

No. A small pilot can run with only Organization admin + teachers / students. When several people need different class scopes and shared class ops, the Organization admin adds academic admins under Manage team and assigns manageable classes.

Login tips

Open the App login page, choose identity (student / teacher / organization), then enter account and password.
For Organization: use the Organization admin or academic admin email and password; if the account can manage multiple orgs, pick the target org at login.
After SaaS trial signup, email or the success page may offer quick login links (student / teacher / Organization admin) that skip the login form.
Forgot password: students / teachers ask Organization admin or academic admin; academic admin accounts ask Organization admin to reset. Private deploy login URLs come from the organization.
Speaking practice needs microphone permission; Organization admin work is easier in a desktop browser.

Messages and notifications

In-app Messages (teaching inbox) and Notifications (task reminders, etc.) differ by role—see Messages and notifications.
