Teaching · For Tutors

Know whether you are the right tutor before the first session.

Take notes on what the family needs, their deadline, times and budget, then check the fit against your own subjects, schedule and rate. The summary gives a verdict, how many sessions fit before the deadline, and what to settle first.

What the form is for

Fit protects the student

Saying yes to a subject you do not teach well, a schedule you cannot keep or a goal the time will not cover sets everyone up for disappointment. A short fit check, done honestly, leads to fewer drop-offs and better results.

When tutoring is not the answer

If a family describes signs of a learning disability that has never been evaluated, they can ask the student’s public school for an evaluation, which is free. Tutoring can help alongside it, but does not replace it. Concerns about attention or mood are for the family to raise with a doctor or the school.

Keeping notes private

Use a code rather than names, and keep notes about a child’s needs only as long as you need them. Everything here stays in your browser.
