ESL Platform for Teachers: Features, Class Limits and Trial
The Kingdom of English is a browser-based ESL and EFL practice platform for teacher-managed classes. Teachers can create learner accounts, assign activities and review completion or available results. The current setup allows two class slots with up to 30 learners each, for a maximum of 60 across the account. Check the class structure and activity controls against your requirements before choosing a plan.
This page helps you decide whether the platform fits your teaching situation. The setup guide, assignment instructions and progress guide explain the detailed workflows.

Will your class arrangement fit?
The 60-student allowance is split across two class slots, each capped at 30. The number of groups matters as well as the total number of learners. These are examples of the current setup limits, not reports from actual customers.
| Your proposed setup | Fits one account? | Reason |
|---|---|---|
| Two groups of 24 learners | Yes, within the current capacity. | Uses both class slots; each group is below 30 and the total is 48. |
| One class of 36 learners | Not as one platform class. | A class is capped at 30. Splitting it would use both slots; decide whether that suits your teaching organisation. |
| Three separate groups of 15 learners | No, not as three platform classes. | The total of 45 is below 60, but a third class slot is not available in this account. |
Teachers can create student accounts without learners needing their own email addresses. Browser access does not require an app installation. During a trial, test sign-in on the devices your learners actually use. If you need more classes or several teacher accounts, check the current plans and ask about your requirements before planning the rollout.
Match the activity controls to your teaching goal
“Assignable practice” means different things in different modules. Use this table to identify a fit and the detail to check first. On a small screen, scroll horizontally to read all columns.
| Teaching need | What is available | Check first |
|---|---|---|
| Targeted grammar or vocabulary practice | Choose listed grammar topics or vocabulary entries for an assignment. | Selecting a grammar topic is not selecting every question. Preview the available exercises and the dated topic catalogue. Easy, medium and hard are platform labels, not certified CEFR levels. |
| Regular reading or listening practice | Set a completion-count target. Standard Reading and Listening use multiple-choice questions checked against stored answer keys. | The assignment control does not select a particular passage or recording. If the whole class needs identical material, provide a shared classroom task; the reading and listening guides include examples. |
| AI-supported reading interaction | Reading RoboTeacher is a separate activity with its own completion-count target. | Review important feedback against the source text and learner response. Do not confuse this mode with standard Reading or treat AI feedback as error-free. |
| Longer writing practice and revision | Select an available writing prompt. Learners type at least 250 words, request first feedback, revise and request a final recheck. | Initial feedback focuses on major spelling and basic grammar; the final recheck focuses on earlier listed mistakes. The teacher overview shows final marks, counts and averages, without a draft or AI-comment viewer. Read the writing workflow and limitations. |
| Monitor homework and plan follow-up | Assignment and activity views provide completion records and available results. | A completion count, average mark or game-point total does not establish why an error happened or what the learner can do independently. Use the guide to interpreting the records and a fresh classroom check. |
A useful fit, or a requirement to check first?
- Consider a trial if your classes fit the two-slot limit and you want to assign available practice, check records and plan your own teaching follow-up.
- Check the content first if you teach a particular syllabus, age group or proficiency level. A difficulty label alone does not establish curriculum alignment.
- Check the workflow first if you require identical assigned reading texts, a teacher interface for commenting on drafts, or writing submissions shorter than 250 words. Those requirements do not match the current controls described above.
- Ask for confirmation first if your school requires a specific institutional integration or a larger multi-teacher arrangement. Do not infer support from a general feature description.
If you are still comparing providers, use the sourced English learning software comparison. It distinguishes consumer subscriptions from school editions and includes a worksheet for comparing two finalists.
A small trial checklist before you commit
Use one teaching goal and a small practice assignment. Record what you observe rather than expecting a seven-day trial to establish long-term learning gains.
- Confirm class fit and access. Check group sizes, sign-in and an intended learner device. Follow the class setup steps.
- Preview the actual task. Check the instructions, difficulty and feedback method. If writing matters to your choice, test the 250-word workflow and the teacher view, not just the module name.
- Assign a manageable target. Use the activity-selection guide to distinguish listed items from completion counts. Confirm dates and access before learners begin.
- Inspect the result you need. Can you find the relevant completion record or final mark? Can you identify a useful next step without assuming the dashboard explains the cause of an error?
- Run one fresh classroom check. Ask for a short explanation or new response. Decide whether the platform's record and that response give you enough information for the intended teaching job.
Record your decision: the task you tried, what worked, what needed teacher support, any unmet requirement, and whether you will continue, adjust the use case or choose another tool. This is a practical buying check, not a scored endorsement of our own platform.
Free resources to support that trial
You can use these classroom materials without registering. Pick the one that answers a specific teaching question:
- Adult ESL needs-analysis questionnaire: agree the real-life task learners want to practise.
- Mixed-ability lesson plan: try a shared task with different amounts of support.
- Speaking observation rubric: record an actual spoken response and choose a next step.
- ESL exit tickets: collect a brief independent check after practice.
The PDFs are separate classroom materials. Downloading a pack does not create an online assignment or automatically score a speaking task.
Price and access after the trial
The published Teacher plan costs €9.90 per month or €99 per year, including up to 60 student accounts within the two-class, 30-per-class setup. Registration starts a seven-day full-access trial with no card required. Grammar and Games remain free afterward; a paid plan is needed for premium access. Check the enabled features for each class as well as the subscription.
Choose the billing period after testing the requirements that matter to you. The trial can reveal a class-capacity or workflow mismatch; it cannot guarantee learner engagement, teacher time savings or improvement.
How this page was prepared
The Kingdom of English publishes this guide about its own product. Class limits, assignment controls, marking methods and teacher views were checked against the current implementation on 4 October 2026. This page was drafted with AI assistance. The class configurations and trial checklist are planning examples, not customer results or an independent effectiveness study.
Frequently asked questions
How many classes and students can one teacher account manage?
The current setup supports two class slots, with a maximum of 30 students in each class: up to 60 students across the account. It does not support 60 students in one class or three separately managed classes in that account.
Can teachers choose a specific reading passage or recording?
The assignment form sets completion-count targets for Reading, Listening and Reading RoboTeacher. It does not select a particular passage or recording title. Teachers can select listed grammar topics, vocabulary entries and writing prompts; these controls differ by activity.
Which activities use AI feedback?
Standard Reading and Listening use multiple-choice answers checked against stored keys. Reading RoboTeacher is a separate AI-supported activity. Writing offers initial AI feedback focused on major spelling and basic grammar issues, followed by a final recheck of previously listed mistakes. The writing workflow requires at least 250 words.
Can teachers read drafts and AI comments in the writing overview?
The current teacher writing overview shows final marks by prompt, the number of prompts with a final mark and their average. It does not display the learner draft or AI comments. Use a separate classroom review when you need to assess the text or the learner's revision decisions.
What does the Teacher plan cost, and what happens after the trial?
The published Teacher plan is EUR 9.90 per month or EUR 99 per year, including up to 60 student accounts within the two-class, 30-per-class limits. Registration starts a seven-day full-access trial with no card required. Grammar and Games remain free afterward; premium access requires a paid plan and applicable class features to be enabled.
If your class setup and teaching requirements fit, use the trial to check one complete practice-and-review cycle.
