Side-by-side camera + slides
Stop shrinking into a corner thumbnail. Put your face at real size right next to your slide, so students read your expression and the math at the same time.
Five short tutorials that turn any laptop into a broadcast-quality classroom — camera beside your slides, iPad whiteboard, vertical shorts, two apps at once. Free, no login, nothing to install.
You do not need a capture card, a green screen, or OBS. If you can open a browser tab and share your screen, you already know how to do this.
Go to numberbender.com/studio in Chrome or Edge. No account, no download. Click Allow when your browser asks for the camera.
Choose Side-by-side, Spotlight, or Dual. Then add what goes next to you — your slides, your iPad screen, or a second app window.
In Zoom, Meet, or Teams, hit Share Screen and pick the Numberbender Studio tab. Your students see the finished broadcast, not your messy desktop.
💡 Tip: tick Share tab audio in Zoom or Meet if your lesson includes video or sound.
Each one is a single setup you can copy in your next class. Start with the first if you teach live on Zoom; start with the second if you are building a following on Reels or Shorts.
Stop shrinking into a corner thumbnail. Put your face at real size right next to your slide, so students read your expression and the math at the same time.
Record 9:16 lessons straight from your desktop — no phone tripod, no re-cropping afterwards. The layout is built vertical from the start.
Work the problem by hand in real time, streamed beside your camera. For math, watching the steps appear beats any finished slide.
Desmos next to your worksheet. The LMS next to the rubric. Two live windows side by side, so you never alt-tab and lose the room.
The best camera you own is already in your pocket. This one also covers why your microphone matters more than your camera ever will.
Studio opens in a new tab. Nothing to download, nothing to sign up for.

Numberbender Studio was built by a Filipino math professor for teachers who were told broadcast-quality teaching needs a budget. It does not. No subscription, no login, walang bayad — ever.
Gumagana sa online at hybrid classes. Kailangan lang ay Chrome at kahit anong laptop — kasama na ang mga Chromebook na binibigay ng paaralan.
No capture card, no green screen, no OBS learning curve. Ang mga tutorial sa itaas ay ilang minuto lang bawat isa.
