If you’re unable to see the seek bar while watching a video on mySecondTeacher, it may be because the seek bar has been disabled for that particular video or all the videos.
Whether or not the seek bar is available for the videos is usually decided by the teacher of the class. If you’re unsure why the seek bar is not available for a particular video, please feel free to contact our platform support team for further assistance.
Completion is a percentage that represents the number of videos you have watched on a specific academic course. When you watch all the videos on a particular subject, you will achieve 100% completion for that subject.
Mastery, on the other hand, indicates your understanding of a topic or subject. It is measured by your performance on the end-of-lesson quizzes of all videos. If you get 100% correct answers on all quizzes, you will score 100% mastery.
In a freemium account, you will have access to interactive videos for each subject’s introductory chapter only.

Our videos are different because we follow a pattern to create interactive videos (Ivys) that combine media and technology. In the media, while writing scripts, we follow a format called CCA pedagogy (context, content, real-life application) and technology where there is a lesson quiz, an end lesson quiz, and a report that will provide customized feedback.
You can view the videos of available subjects under the “Teaching Resources” category in the navigation bar.
Our platform does not offer tutor support at the moment. You can try re-watching the videos and taking the quizzes as well, that might clear out your doubts.
