Messages in the sidebar is your direct-message inbox with every student. Messages inbox

​
What’s in the inbox

  • Student threads — one per student you’ve messaged or who has messaged you.
  • System messages — e.g. Lesson Scheduled notifications from JustTalk itself appear in the same inbox.
  • The unread badge on the sidebar reflects all unread threads.

​
Starting a conversation

Two ways:
  • Click Start conversation on the Messages page to pick from your roster.
  • Click Message on any row of the Students roster.

​
What to send

  • Post-lesson summaries — paste the output of Generate Summary from the lesson report.
  • Homework — reading links, vocabulary lists, audio notes.
  • Schedule changes — confirm rescheduling or cancellations in writing.
  • Encouragement — a one-line “great job today” goes a long way for student retention.
Keep all coaching context in JustTalk Messages rather than scattering across WhatsApp / email. Your future self (and any backup teacher) will thank you.
