Jupyter Notebooks arise as a tool accessible from a browser that have a dual purpose: to offer a medium that can contain code, text, images and equations; and the possibility of executing code, which makes them an innovative tool for teaching and collaborative work. This article proposes an alternative for a teacher to make available to their students, a multi-user system, to potentiate programming classes, mathematics, numerical methods, linear algebra, control engineering, statistics and even big-data, using Virtual Box and the JupyterHub application. The work describes the way in which a virtual machine was created to be imported in a simple way, where the server starts automatically, requiring only teacher intervention to create the user accounts of its students, maintain the system and shut down the system service virtualized.
