Create your free teacher account
Step 1: Open the sign-up page
Go to edform.com and press “Get started free” at the top of the page.
Step 2: Choose “I'm a teacher”
The page asks “Who are you?”. Pick “I'm a teacher” to get the teacher tools: lessons, tests, classes and results.
Step 3: Sign up with your school account or email
Press “Continue with Google” to use your school account. Or type your “First name”, “Last name”, “Email address” and a “Password” of at least 8 characters, then press “Create account”.
Step 4: Verify your email address
If you signed up with an email address, a banner at the top asks you to verify it. Open the link in the email we sent you, or press “Resend link” if it didn't arrive.
Answer two quick questions
Step 1: Pick the language of your materials
On “Welcome to Edform!”, choose the “Language of your materials”. AI tools write lesson plans, quizzes and other materials in this language.
Step 2: Choose your school system and press “Continue”
Pick your “School system” so materials use the right grades, grading scale and curriculum terms. Under “Emails from Edform”, tick the emails you want: practical tips about once a week, and offers such as free Pro for inviting teachers. You can change this any time in Settings → Emails. Press “Continue” to open your dashboard.
Find your way around the dashboard
Step 1: Start something new
The cards at the top start the main things you make: “Make a lesson”, “Make a test”, “Make a video lesson” and “Make a worksheet”. Below them are “Create with AI”, “Classroom screen” and “Find ready-made” for materials shared by other teachers.
Step 2: Follow the “Get started” checklist
On the right, “Get started” lists the first things to try: “Add your class”, “Make your first test”, “Try an AI tool”, “Open a classroom screen”, “Give a test to students” and “Share something in the library”. Each item is a link, and it ticks itself off when you've done it.
Step 3: Use the menu
The menu on the left has “Dashboard” and “My library” at the top, then “Assign & teach” (Lessons, Tests, Worksheets, Videos, Courses), “Students” (Classes, Assignments, Results), “Tools” (AI tools, Classroom screens, Classroom tools) and “School & community” (Community library, Flyers, Invite teachers). On a phone, the main sections are tabs at the bottom of the screen.
Your first ten minutes
Step 1: Add your class
Under “Your classes”, press “Create class” to make a class.
Step 2: Make your first test
Press “Make a test”, then “New test”, give it a title and add a few questions.
Step 3: Give it to your students
In the test, press “Use with class” and choose “Homework”. Students join with a code, a link or a QR code — no email needed.
Questions
Is Edform free for teachers?
Yes. Creating an account and everything described in this guide is free for teachers.
Do my students need to sign up?
Not for homework you give with a code: students type the code and their name. Students can create their own account with “I'm a student”, or you can create username logins for them in a class.
I forgot my password. What do I do?
On the sign-in page, press “Forgot password?”, enter your email address and press “Send reset link”. If you sign in with Google, use that button instead.
Can I change my language or school system later?
Yes. Open “Settings” and change them under “Your materials”, then press “Save changes”.
