Our Services

The Client's Relationship with the Tutor
- The Client understands that it is up to them and the Tutor to agree on organizing the time and the method of teaching.
- The Tutor will be paid on an hourly basis and will record the time of the students' session based on the nearest 15 minutes, rounding up. For example, if a teaching session lasted for 50 minutes, it would be rounded and charged as one hour. For purpose of clarification, another example is if a teaching session lasted 43 minutes, then it is counted as 45 minutes and so on.
- The Client understands that they are required to pay in advance for their booking to be valid.
- Once the Client has booked with the Company, the Company has five (5) working days to connect the Tutor and the Client.
- If the Tutor arrives late, the Tutor shall compensate the Client by extending a session by mutual agreement.
The Client's Conduct and Responsibilities
As a user of the Website, the Client agrees to the following:
- the Client's arrangement is with the Company, and direct payments to the Tutor is a breach of the terms and conditions;
- the hourly rate will be agreed in advance by us;
- if the student does not show up to a planned lesson, the hours will be counted towards the number of hours taught and the lesson will be charged;

- the sessions will be recorded on a third-party platform for the purposes of creating educational material for the students as well as part of the Company's quality assurance and support;
- regardless of whether or not the student attends the courses, the course fee is payable in full unless a cancellation has been made in accordance with the terms and conditions.
The Client is responsible to ensure that the students arrive on time. For courses, the Client understands that late arrival to any session will not toll the time of the session. In other words, the Client is expected to be on time to each session or forfeit the amount of late arrival. No adjustment shall be made on fees for time lost because of late arrival.
The students will have the ability to rate tutors at the end of each session and provide feedback.

The Company will reach out again to the Client.
