Here is detailed support for the 4 remedies:

  1. Having more than one google account can be a real problem online.  We recommend you use Chrome and then sign in with different profiles. This will create a separate Chrome instance for each of your google accounts and so you do not have to worry about which account you are logged into. 
  1. Get invited by another ASSISTments Teacher.  To invite you to receive a teacher role in ASSISTments, another ASSISTments teacher must generate an invite code for you:

        a. First, the teacher will need to click their name in the top right corner of their ASSISTments account and click         ‘Settings.’

        c. Here, you can enter the email addresses of all of the teachers to whom you’d like to give a teacher role (one per text         box). When all emails have been listed, the teacher clicks the “Generate Invite Code” button.

3. Teachers who are designated as teachers by their G Suite Administrator in their school or district Google Classroom account automatically are verified as teachers when they sign-up. The easiest way to get verified as a teacher is to have your school or district’s G Suite Administrator designate you as a teacher. They can do so by following these instructions.
