Good morning, and thank you so much to everyone who has signed up so far for my online course, Intuitive Daily Stitching. I hope you’re enjoying it.
Some aspects of the platform, Teachable, can be difficult to navigate. I’m hoping here to try and clarify the process a bit for anyone who’s had some trouble accessing the course.
Part of the confusion I think might come from the fact that a Teachable account and a School account are two different things. When you purchase my course, you’re automatically signed up for my School, which may be a different login from any existing Teachable account you may have.
If you have an existing Teachable account, I *think* (if I’m understanding this correctly) you can edit your profile in the top right of your screen to merge your Teachable Schools. If you haven’t got an existing Teachable account, then it’s a bit less complicated.
When you purchase the course, you should receive an email like this:
If you have at the same time created a new account, you may also receive an email like this:
When you have clicked on the ‘confirm email’ button, you will get another email like this:
You may then need to log in again before you can see your home page on Teachable. The first thing you should see on your page might look like this:
If you’re having trouble seeing anything at all, try clicking on my profile image (the moon, top left). You should be able to see your course in the ‘my products’ page in the menu top right. You may well have to log in again. Your ‘my products’ page should look something like this:
You can access Teachable’s student help pages here – scroll right down the page where there is some information on trouble shooting. If you’re still stuck, contact me and I’ll see if I can help.
Also, an update today – Intuitive Daily Stitching is now available with (English) subtitles for each lesson. It’s exactly the same content as the original version, just with subtitles on all the videos. If you’ve already purchased the standard version but would prefer the subtitled version, contact me and I can add you to the new course. Don’t pay twice!
This is probably one of the least interesting blog posts I’ve ever written, but I hope at least someone has found it helpful. Let me know if you have any problems getting in to your course. Or if you previously had a problem and resolved it successfully, please tell me what you did. This has been (and still is) an immense learning curve for me too.
It all worked smoothly for me. i’m enjoying this Course so much Karen and moving through it very slowly. It’s such a well-produced Course and a pleasure to watch. thanks very much.
Thanks so much, Catherine – I’m delighted that you’re enjoying it (and slowly is the best way!) – and equally delighted that you didn’t have any of the login problems that a handful of students encountered. Hooray!
It’s an adventure all the way with new platforms like this, isn’t it!
Ha, adventure wouldn’t be the first word I’d think of, having experienced some of the chaos, but yes – it certainly is!
I would like to know, if someone not British has entered the course, and if this has created any special problems. I think in regard to e.g.payment (Britain
not bring an EU member any more).
Hello Hanne, I’ve seen quite a few non-UK residents sign up so far. The checkout will automatically convert the currency for you. You can use xe.com or similar to check the conversion rate to your local currency. The course is in English, and there’s also now a version with English subtitles. Let me know if you have any other questions about this.
