Post lockdown..travel may be charged over 20 miles round trip

Single lessons no ongoing include an additional premium above the usual hours tuition lesson fee of £15.00 ...worth it for tests!

NB. Only taking two lessons attracts a cancellation fee. Late notification of cessation of monthly continuation (which should be in the 3rd week, 7th phone/Skype/email) will attract a weeks fee while another student is engaged.

Non availability for lessons:- fees are waived if lessons are rescheduled with 24hr notice for the same week. Moving on a week is by discretion. There are no refunds if the tutor has to advise non availability but rescheduling will be arranged.

In revision weeks new single lessons must be weekends and £80 for 2 hours to avoid inconveniencing existing students.

Any communication with the tutor should be by email (+ text or phone message as an addition).

It is the responsibility of the Tutee or Tutee`s representative to determine & advise the tutees examination board details. Ensure teacher assignment work details are correct ie essay titles. (Please ask school/college teachers for emails).

Fees are by cash (receipted) paypal invoice or bank transfer.

A copy of this agreement is available in .pdf format.

It is the students responsibility to work hard towards & take the examinations and teacher assessments. Tutors do all they can to help boost grades, refunds are not made if the examination results are not improved or if assignments/teacher assessment grades are not as expected. Tutees must send regular work set by the tutor for comments or marking

Please note:- teaching organisations recommend tutors charge 2.5 x the basic teaching salary converted to hours this equals £42.50 per hour, so the rate charged here (including an hours work before the lesson time, & travel time), represents excellent value and is competitive.

I write resources & make web-blog subject `intranets` for tutees. These resources are tailored on a one to one (or group) basis, they are provided for the students reference and study help for their subject and are free to use.

I check all subject specifications & find suitable textbook & online resources. I prepare topic individualised lesson plans and resources tailored to tutee needs. (Preparation & Admin takes another 2-3 hours daily reflected in the rate). Marking is in the form of comments returned with improvements suggested to the set work.
