In my experience (as a student), the I-talki notiification about my class time is always shown in my local time. I assume the teacher sees it in her local time - this system seems pretty foolproof to me so it is difficult to imagine what went wrong in your case.

If there is a technical error, it might be that the clock on one of the computers (yours or the student's) isn't set properly. In cases like this, I'd contact the student and ask (nicely) what happened, confirming the time on the student's side.
