What is your cancellation policy?
We require at least 24 hours' notice for cancellations. Cancellations made within this timeframe may result in a cancellation fee, as mentioned at the time of booking.
Are there any hidden fees?
Nope! A late fee of $5 per 15 minutes will apply if a student arrives late for their scheduled tutoring session. This ensures our tutors’ time is respected and that other sessions remain on schedule. Repeated lateness may impact future booking availability. If a student does not attend a session without prior notice, a $50 no-show fee will be charged. This policy supports our tutors in maintaining reserved time slots for each student.
Note: Tutoring services may be suspended until all outstanding fees are paid in full.
