Two questions matter here and they pull in opposite directions: is my child safe, and am I watching too closely. This article answers both honestly — including the things we deliberately do not show you, and why.
What you can see
- Progress — Lessons, units and assignments done, partway or untouched, and how far through.
- Activity — When they studied and how consistently. Streak and XP.
- Results — Exam and quiz outcomes, with the same breakdown they saw.
- Skills — How listening, reading, writing and speaking compare to each other.
All of it is the same data your child sees about themselves, presented to you.
What we do not show you
- Anything they typed — Not their conversations with the AI tutor, not their free-text answers, not their messages. No endpoint behind a parent view returns typed text.
- Their moment-to-moment behaviour — The detailed session-flow data available in a learner’s own Lab is withheld from guardians. You get outcomes; you do not get a replay.
- Their private practice as a transcript — You can see that they practised speaking and how they scored. You cannot read what they said.
Who can reach your child
People in the same circle, and nobody else. That is enforced on the server rather than hidden in the interface: a message to someone outside your circles is refused.
There is no site-wide directory of learners and no way to search for a person. A guardian-managed child account is also kept off public surfaces entirely — it does not appear in the tutor directory or any other public listing.
The AI tutor
The tutor’s instructions live on our server, not in the browser, and the topic is fenced — it is a Chinese-learning tutor and cannot be talked into being something else by a message from the page.
You will not see the conversation. What you will see is that it happened, and the progress that came from it.
Watching without hovering
The dashboard makes daily inspection possible and that is mostly a trap. Three things that work better:
Look weekly, not daily — a week is long enough to show a pattern and short enough to act on. Ask about the thing they did rather than the thing they missed. And when you do notice a stall, ask where they got stuck rather than why they stopped; the first is a question about a lesson and the second is a question about them.
Common questions
No. Nothing typed is exposed to a parent view. You see that practice happened and what came of it, not the transcript.
