The parent portal is your family’s home in LessonLoop — a calm, separate space from the app your teacher uses to run their studio. It’s where you check lessons, pay invoices, follow practice and message your teacher, all in one place.
Getting in
You don’t need to create an account first. Your teacher sends you an invitation link by email; opening it brings you straight into your family’s portal and sets up your sign-in. After that, you log in any time at the link your teacher shares.
Good to know If you haven't had an invitation yet, just ask your teacher to send one — only they can invite you. The portal shows only your own family's information.
Where everything lives
On a computer, the portal has these pages down the side:
| Page | What’s there |
|---|---|
| Home | Your at-a-glance summary — what’s coming up, anything that needs you, and the occasional notice from your teacher. |
| Schedule | Your child’s upcoming and past lessons. |
| Practice | Practice tasks set by your teacher, and your child’s progress. |
| Invoices | Your bills, what’s been paid, and a Pay button on anything outstanding. |
| Messages | Your conversation with your teacher. |
| Resources | Files and materials your teacher has shared with you. |
There’s also a Profile link for your own details.
On your phone
The phone view keeps the four you reach for most as tabs along the bottom — Home, Schedule, Invoices and Messages. The rest — Practice, Resources and Profile — sit tidily under a More button. Everything is still there; it’s just arranged to fit a smaller screen.
Paying an invoice
Your Home page shows a card telling you how many invoices are waiting; it links straight to your Invoices, where each unpaid bill has its own Pay button. On the web it opens a secure card payment sheet (Apple Pay included on an iPhone); in the iOS app you tap through to finish in your browser. Once it goes through, the invoice marks itself paid. There’s a full walk-through in Pay an invoice.
Following practice
The Practice page is where your child’s set tasks and progress live, so you can see what to work on between lessons. See Practice and progress for more.
