How to Host Interactive Live Classes Using Tuition Near Me and Zoom

Using Zoom with Tuition Near Me

To start creating live online lessons, you will need a few tools as well as configuring some of them to your liking. 

So let’s take a look at the tools you will need:

1. An account with Tuition Near Me;
2. An account with Zoom.

Create a Course

To create a course that is optimized for live classes, first, create the general structure of the course. Add all the other necessary text and image content along with the course preview video. Then you can create a course for your students.

Create a Zoom Account

To get started, you need to create a Zoom account first. Visit Zoom’s website and sign up to create an account. 

Create a Server-to-Server OAuth App

After creating an account, you must create an app that will connect Tuition Near Me to Zoom.

Step 1: Go to the Zoom App Marketplace Developer Dashboard (https://marketplace.zoom.us/develop) and log in with your Zoom account. On the top right hand, click on “Develop”, followed by “Build Legacy App”.

Step 2: Scroll down to find Server-to-Server. Click on “Create” under the Server-to-Server OAuth app type.

Step 3: Fill in the App Name field and click on Create.

This will take you to the App credentials page. But first, you need to fill in the required Information & Scopes to Activate your app. 

Step 4: Go to Information to set your Company Name and Developer Contact Information, i.e. your name and email address. 

Step 5: Go to Scopes and configure your app’s necessary scopes based on your Tuition Near Me integration requirements. We recommend you select the required scopes for Meeting, Webinar, Recording, and User.
