Students and rates

How do I set a student's rate?

In the student's form, under Subjects & price, give each subject a price and a type: Hourly, Per lesson or Free.

By the Tutitor team · Updated

The three rate types

TypeHow a completed lesson is billed
HourlyPrice × lesson length. A 90-minute lesson at 200,000 an hour bills 300,000.
Per lessonThe price, whatever the length.
FreeNothing. Useful for trial lessons or a family member.

One monthly fee instead

Turn on Charge one monthly fee to bill a flat Monthly fee instead of a price per lesson. It is charged once per billing cycle, and lessons on the plan add nothing on top.

Subject price vs student price

Each subject you create in Manage subjects has a price, but it is only the starting suggestion. The price on the student is the one that bills, so two students can pay different amounts for the same subject.

Common questions

Should I charge hourly or monthly?

Per lesson or hourly is simplest when the schedule moves around. A monthly fee suits a fixed weekly slot. The guide on hourly vs monthly rates compares both.

Does a price change rewrite old invoices?

No. Invoiced lessons keep the amount they were billed at.
