The information in these Terms and Conditions is legally valid between you and our Company (which refers to 4tutor Limited).

We charge a tutor the first 2 lessons of tuition fee as the agency fee. For example, when each lesson is 1 hour, our charge is 2 hours. When each lesson is 1.5 hour, our charge is 3 hours. Parents or students will hold the money of the first 2 lessons and then send it to us as the agency fee. From the 3rd lesson and onwards, they either pay the tutor or through our company directly.

A. First impression matters. A smile, smart dressing and a passionate attitude help. B. Present your highest qualification to the clients during your first lesson. C. Be punctual. It's nice to be a bit earlier than scheduled. If you foresee that you are going to be more than 10 minutes late for a lesson, you should call the parent/student in time to inform and apologize. D. If you have to change or re-arrange a lesson, give the client an early notice not less than 24 hours. E. Prepare for every lesson. Think of how you will structure the lesson, what you are going to say exactly and what tailor-made handouts should be made beforehand. Keep up with the latest syllabus. Clients know very well how much effort you have paid. This determines the pay increment. F. Focus on tutoring. Do not spend much time talking about something irrelevant to the lesson, even you think they are something interesting. Think of how you can make the lesson interesting instead. Do not use your phone during the lesson as well. G. Discuss the tutoring progress report with the clients on weekly basis. This makes your teaching look systematic. H. Do not skip lessons or even quit when clients’ examinations are coming. This will make you look very irresponsible I. If you are going through a topic with the student, and you see that the lesson time is complete, spend a few minutes to finish what you are doing. Don’t finish the lesson abruptly in mid-topic! K. Actively update us on the date of first lesson, finalized hourly rate, frequency and length of lesson, how the first lesson goes, learning struggles of students.
