One sheet per student, taken straight from their board's syllabus. Tick off every scale, hand and speed as you teach it, then spin the wheel for the ones they keep avoiding.
Takes two minutes and needs no sign-up. Then US$29 a year after a 7 day free trial, or it is included in every TopMusicPro plan.

And a sheet that remembersWhere every student is up to, hand by hand
Looking up a grade and spinning a wheel is free, always. No account, no card, nothing to cancel. Open the free tools. The tracker is the paid half: it is the one that remembers every student.

The free Finder first, then the sheet that remembers where all thirty of your students are up to.
Prefer to read? Everything it does is listed below.
Sound familiar?
Most of us keep it in our heads, in a notebook, or on a photocopied sheet that lives in the student's book and comes back covered in biscuit crumbs.
How it works
Type their names, or paste the export from your studio management software. First name and an initial is all it keeps, so no surnames and no birthdays.
Taught right hand, taught left hand, slow, hands together, up to speed, confident. Tick the last one and everything before it fills in by itself.
One tap and the wheel asks for a scale. Choose the whole list, only what they know, or only what they have never played.
What's included
Every scale, arpeggio, chord progression and exercise their board asks for, with the octaves, the tempo and the hands it wants. Columns change to suit the row: a scale the syllabus wants hands together still gets a Taught right hand and Taught left hand column, because that is how it gets taught.
Tick a column heading to mark the whole studio, or one box for one student.

The wheel in the lesson is not a random scale generator. It is built from this student's own requirements, and you choose what goes on it: everything, only the ones they can play, or only the ones they have never touched.
Land on one, play it, tick it off without leaving the wheel. Students ask for it.
Add anything you want tracked: a scale outside the syllabus, a piece, aural work, theory. Exam rows get the taught-to-ready ladder. Pieces and aural get a simpler one, because a piece is not learnt hands separately at a metronome mark.
A student doing no exams at all can have a sheet made entirely of your own rows.

Sign in once with your email and your whole studio follows you to every device. No password to remember and nothing to install.
It keeps working when the wifi drops, which in a music room it will. Ticks queue up and go when the signal comes back, so a lesson never waits for a loading spinner.
The syllabuses
Each one is published here with that board's written permission, and checked against the printed syllabus rather than scraped from a website. When a board reissues, we update it.
RCM is next. Piano and keyboard today, with other instruments on the way.
Pricing
That is about a dollar a fortnight.
Every plan from Lite upwards includes it, plus everything else in the membership.
Yes, and without signing up for anything. Set up one student, tick what they can play and spin their wheel. You only reach a payment screen if you decide to keep it.
No. It is US$29 a year on its own. If you are already a member on any plan from Lite upwards, you have it already, so sign in with the email your membership uses.
Nothing is deleted. Your students, their ticks and your own rows stay in your account, and they are all there the moment you come back.
The tracker itself stops opening until you do. The free half carries on as normal: looking up any grade, and both spinners, stay yours whether you pay or not.
Every board here gave written permission, and each syllabus was typed up from that board's own published books rather than copied off a website. The AMEB lists, for instance, were checked line by line against their 2018 technical work books.
It is still worth checking the current syllabus for your student's exam. Boards reissue, and your examiner is the final word.
Piano and keyboard today, which is where the exam lists are most detailed. Other instruments are on the way. In the meantime you can build your own list for any student on any instrument and track them the same way.
That is what it is built for. It works on a phone, an iPad or a laptop, it keeps working when the wifi drops, and your ticks catch up on their own when the signal comes back.
A first name and an initial, their board, syllabus and grade, and what you have ticked. No surnames, no dates of birth, and nothing a child enters themselves.
Two minutes, no sign-up, and you will have their whole list in front of you.
