I want to add another teacher in my school as a coach to the students' accounts, but when a student logs in and clicks on the coaches tab, the ability to add a coach isn't enabled unless a parent's email is put in. I don't want to put in parent emails, is there a way to bypass this?
Thank you,
Jaime
Hi, y'all!
I’m afraid we don’t currently offer the ability to add a co-teacher to a class or share a class among multiple teachers. A class is always tied to the Teacher account that created it, and only that account is able to see scores and manage assignments for the class.
One possible workaround would be asking the teacher who created the class to share their account credentials if the co-teaching occurs for a limited period, such as an extended leave of absence, for example.
We know this isn’t an ideal solution, and we really appreciate you taking the time to share your feedback. I've passed your thoughts along to the team and it will be part of our conversation as we plan the future of Khan Academy.
In case you need help with using Khan Academy, please submit a support request. Our support team will be more than happy to help you!

Hello Jaime! My name is Lisa Krueger and I am a Khan Academy Ambassador teaching in Chicago. At the moment the only way to add another coach for students under 13 is if a parent's email is associated with the student account. The KA developers have been made aware of the limitations of this security feature and are reviewing their policies. Sorry I couldn't give you better news. I will post here when I have more news. Thank you for posting.
Hi,
How about I want to cancel the "Allow your child to add other coaches" ?
I unchecked the box, but it is checked again when I back to the page. I also unchecked the box in Settings--> Can add other coaches. It is still on when I back. But when my son log in his account, it doesn't show these in his settings. He is over 13 years old.
Regards,
Carla
Hello Carla! As far as I know parents only have access to edit settings for children under 13. For children over 13 they have access to their own settings. May I ask why you want to prevent your child from adding a coach. Perhaps you are not alone in this reasoning and it is a feature Khan Academy developers need to be made aware of. Please let me know if you need have any further questions, comments, or suggestions. Thank you for posting.
Hi, Lisa, my 13+yrs old is only using Khan as his individual learning. So there is no need to add other coach except parent. Also I don't want other person that we don't known to be the coach of my child. If there is from school teacher would be fine, but so far I don't know any school teacher is awared or interested to be the coach of his/her students. So I want to put this option off until there is a need.
Hi Carla! Thank you for taking the time to explain your reasoning behind preventing your child from adding a coach. I will add it to the 'wish-list' being compiled for the Khan Academy developers and include giving parents the same rights for their +13 children as their under 13 children. Please let me know if you have further question, comments, or suggestions. Again, thank you for posting.
Hello I'm a learning support teacher and I want to see my students progress in a regular education math class. Is there a way that the regular education math teacher can add me to her classes so I can see the data? In the past I have created my own class and had the students enter my class code as another coach. However with the new update I am having difficulty seeing what the other teacher have assigned to each student. Thank you!
Hello Heath & @mschwab! Currently there is no ability to have co-teaching within Khan Academy; however, it has been added to the user wish-list being compiled for the Khan Academy developers. I agree it would be a useful tool as I have several classes that I share with a colleague and it would be easier if the student just used 1 code and all the teachers could see their work. Sorry I could have been of more help. Please let me know if you have any further questions, comments, or suggestions. Thank you for posting.
Hello Bergþór! Unfortunately, there is no news on this feature. To keep up to date on the latest features and upgrades visit the News and Updates page on the Community site. Please let me know if you have any further questions, comments, or suggestions. Thank you for posting.
Is there any update in the last two years to add a co-teacher to classes? This is a crucial component that must be added if public school teachers would like to continue to use these services. Please any update would be helpful or are there any "workarounds" that can be used in the meantime to allow my special education teacher access?
Following up on the most recent post by cortiztello, Lisa Krueger has Khan Academy created an option to add another teacher to a class...asking for my Ed Support teachers who would like to see student progress.
Hello, I would like to reiterate the need for SpEd teachers and other support staff to be able to track progress in my Khan Classes. Lisa Krueger, it would be great if you could expedite this process! We are all now in urgent need due to online learning.
With most learning happening online right now it is crucial for the teachers to be able to see their students progress. I am in a classroom with three teachers: a general education teacher and two special education teachers that are trying to track our students' progress. Is Khan Academy able to add this feature of co-teacher yet? This would be such a blessing right now.
From david.honea:
"Khan Academy is a great resource, but the responses in this thread and to other questions about how to set up co-teaching for a class reveal a huge blind spot, and are at some level insulting to the work EC teachers do.
"It is EXTREMELY common to have two licensed teachers who are both formally/legally/actually responsible for a class. And the classes where that happens tend to be the ones with the greatest range of current levels and learning needs, where Khan Academy is perhaps at its most valuable for its ability to individualize remediation and scaffolding.
"You have created a situation where as a practical matter those teachers cannot co-teach in Khan Academy. Either one teacher takes full responsibility for that part of the classroom; students sign up for one teacher or the other for their Khan Academy class; or students have to sign up for two separate classes for their one class, with the teachers unable to view what is happening in the other classroom.
"The suggestions that one teacher share the login information for their professional account, which may be used for several other classes that the second teacher does not share, or, that the two teachers create a shared "dummy" account that they will use just for the shared course, are simply unprofessional. I can't believe anyone thought that "share your account with your colleague" was an acceptable solution.
"It's beyond frustrating to have my EC co-teacher able to view assignments as a student, but have no idea what work the students she supports have attempted or completed. This is much worse now in a remote learning situation, where she cannot physically see a student's computer to check on their progress.
"I realize I'm complaining about something I get for free. But an organization that supports millions of active users should be able to provide the functionality to give two accounts teacher privileges in the same class."
All the comments I see about co-teaching are from years ago. Has anything been done with this? I am a independent study charter school teacher. My students have the option to attend workshop classes. I developed workshop classes for our school but am extremely hindered by the face that my facilitators can't see the students work. It would not make any sense for me to share my logins as that is what has been stated as your work around.
