Hi!

Thank you for sharing your experience with us. We understand how it can feel to receive inquiries without immediate bookings, but please rest assured that this is a very common part of the process, especially in the beginning. Many students take some time to explore their options, communicate with a few tutors, and align schedules before confirming their lessons.

We encourage you to continue responding promptly and engaging warmly with each inquiry, as this plays a key role in building trust and increasing your chances of conversion. Sometimes, even a small follow-up or a clear, friendly introduction can make a difference.

Please don’t be discouraged, many tutors experience this stage before they start receiving regular bookings. With consistency and patience, bookings usually follow. We’re confident that your efforts will pay off soon and hope to see your first confirmed lesson in the near future.

If you would like to further increase your chances, you may also consider boosting your visibility on TUTOROO. You can now sign up for TUTOROO Premium, where your profile will be automatically promoted to the top of the search results for your language in your city. Many tutors see an increase in student introductions shortly after activating the subscription.

Thank you again, and we wish you success in securing your first booking soon.

Best regards,
The TUTOROO Team

Excellent

Tutoroo is a professional and reliable platform. They are very helpful, recommend students, and maintain excellent communication with tutors. The process of connecting with learners is smooth, and the support team is responsive and efficient. I would highly recommend Tutoroo to tutors looking for new students.

Trustworthy Tutor-tutee Matching Platform

Tutoroo was able to help me secure genuine clients who desire to help their children or relatives improve in the learning of English. It has a user-friendly pre-paymenf option for the 1st 2 lessons as well as clear instructions for the payment of subsequent lessons. Additionally, it sends links to both clients & tutors to seek their feedback and moniitor the quality of the business transaction.

fairness?

platform is great, the teacher I found was great, however I was shocked to learn that Tutoroo collected the fee of four 1,5 hour classes from the teacher for the platform service.

I agree that a good platform deserves a fair share of the revenue for the service, but a fair share in my estimation would be the fee of 1 or 2 one-hour classes, but definitely not four 1,5 hour classes.

Hi Jan,

Thank you for sharing your feedback, and we’re glad to hear that you had a great experience with the teacher you found on the platform.

We understand your concern regarding the platform fee. To clarify, unlike many other tutoring platforms that charge an ongoing commission on every lesson, TUTOROO only applies its commission to the first two weeks of lessons. During this initial period, the typical lesson preference offered is either 1 hour or 1.5 hours per session, once or twice per week, depending on the student’s choice.

This one-time service fee supports the work involved in connecting students with suitable tutors, managing introductions, and providing ongoing support during the initial stage. After this period, students and tutors are free to continue lessons directly without any further commission from TUTOROO.

It’s also worth noting that if a student decides not to continue after a lesson has already been conducted, the tutor is still eligible to receive 50% compensation for that lesson. This helps ensure tutors are fairly compensated for their time and preparation.

Our goal is to keep the platform sustainable while also supporting both students and tutors. We truly appreciate your feedback and will continue working to provide a positive experience for everyone using TUTOROO.

Thank you again for sharing your thoughts.

Best regards,
The TUTOROO Team

SCAM! Avoid this platform

SCAM!
Tutoroo does not honor its own policies. They promise tutors 50% payment if a student quits after two lessons, but in reality they don't pay. No support, no replies, no accountability. This platform exploits tutors and feels like a big scam. Stay away!!

Hi Anna,

Thank you for sharing your feedback. We are genuinely sorry to hear about your experience and understand how concerning this delay must feel.

Please be assured that our 50% payment policy remains in effect, and there is absolutely no intention to withhold any payment owed to you. Your case has been escalated and coordinated with both our Hong Kong team and Finance team to ensure it is handled appropriately.

We sincerely apologize for the longer-than-expected processing time. While the delay was not anticipated, we are closely following up and will provide an update as soon as the payment has been finalized.

We truly appreciate your patience and value your contribution to the platform.

It's good for connecting you with students, but bear in mind you have to give your time away for 2 weeks first

Great platform but tutors need to be…

Great platform but tutors need to be vetted and feedback from students need to determine if tutors stay on the platform or not. My Dzongkha tutor started out great but then he didn’t show up for scheduled lessons. Told me he was travelling but didn’t say anything in advance and left me sitting there until I reached out to confirm the lesson. He had time to post his own UTube and Instagram videos though. Payment was very complicated. Had to send money to Australia to a friend. Meant lots of conversions of currencies and many fees. I wouldn’t recommend this tutor. He didn’t have a passion for teaching the language and certainly didn’t respect me as a student.

Hi Lorrie,

Thank you for your feedback. We sincerely apologise for the experience you described. Missed lessons and lack of prior communication are not aligned with the standards we expect from our tutors.

Please be assured that we have reviewed your case and coordinated with our New Delhi team, who will be handling this matter directly. They will follow up accordingly to ensure it is addressed properly.

We also acknowledge your comments regarding the payment process. We understand that international transfers and currency conversions can be inconvenient, and we appreciate you highlighting this. Your feedback is valuable and will be shared internally as we continue improving our systems.

Thank you again for bringing this to our attention.

Best regards,

Easy to work with

The great thing is, that the students come without me searching for them. Therefore it's a bit unpleasant, that I have to teach for two weeks for free, even though it's not certain that the student will stay with me for future lessons.
