How long does approval take?

We review every application carefully and email you as soon as you are approved. Clear, up-to-date documents with the same legal name on each one are the fastest way through.

Does it cost anything to join, and what is the platform fee?

Joining is free. When you teach, a platform service fee of 25% of each session rate applies. It comes out of the amount charged and covers the platform, payments and admin, so you never have to chase an invoice.

How do I get paid?

Families pay through the platform, and your earnings are paid out to you for the lessons you complete. Make sure every lesson is scheduled on the platform so it counts. How payouts work

Can I tutor while working full time as a teacher?

Many of our tutors do. You choose how many hours to offer, so tutoring fits around your teaching job. If you teach in Ontario, read our guide on tutoring your own students before you start. Can Ontario teachers tutor their own students?

Who can join as a tutor?

Certified teachers in Canada and registered early childhood educators can apply, along with some other qualified educators, subject to review and verification.

How do families find me?

Families see you when your subjects, grades, rates and availability fit what they are looking for. A complete profile with a clear bio helps families choose you.

Do I decide which requests I accept?

Yes. A family sends you a request and you choose whether to accept it, so you only teach students you are a good fit for.

Can I change my rates or hours later?

Yes. You can update your rates and your weekly availability in your profile whenever you need to.
