TERMS AND CONDITIONS OF ENROLMENT  

​

TUTORING LESSONS

1. All lessons are delivered by myself.

2. Each lesson will be one hour in length unless otherwise agreed. 

 

INDIVIDUAL TUITION PLAN 

1. Every child has a unique set of strengths and areas for development. I create an individual tuition plan tailored to your child as a result of my initial assessment, parental input and other information such as school progress reports. 

 

SCHEDULING

1. Lessons are scheduled to take place at a specific time and day each week at the agreed location during term time. Please bear in mind that if you arrive late to a lesson I won’t be able to make up the time, and the lesson will finish as if you had been on time. This is to make sure that I can still honour the commitments I have for that day as a tutor and as a parent. I do understand that on occasion events happen beyond our control and am usually lenient a few times. In return, I will endeavour to always be on time.

2. Regular lessons are important if your child is to make progress with me. I would appreciate as much notice as possible if your child is unable to attend a lesson, for instance, due to sickness or school commitments. All missed lessons must be ‘made up’ within 3 weeks of the lesson that is being missed - this can be in the 3 weeks before the missed lesson or the 3 weeks after the missed lesson. There will be no refund of the missed lesson fee and it will be your responsibility to book a ‘make up’ lesson. 

3. In the event that I am unable to tutor a lesson I will contact you as soon as I know, and schedule a mutually convenient time to ‘make up’ the lesson, which will also be within 3 weeks of the normal lesson time (either before or after). 

4. I require 14 days written notice if you intend to withdraw your child from my tutoring services. All fees are payable for lessons until the end of the 14 day notice period. Your notice must be made in writing by email, royal mail post or hand delivery with acknowledgement by email. Verbal notification by telephone is not acceptable.

5. Extra sessions can be booked on an ad hoc basis if the need is required. 

 

HOMEWORK

1. There is a strong connection between regularly completing homework and higher accomplishments. In addition, it develops core skills in young children that will serve them throughout school and working life. The homework I give is age appropriate and based on what has been covered in the lesson in order that your child consolidates what they have learnt in a session with me (younger children quickly forget!). It also acts as feedback on how well they have grasped the skills taught and I can therefore personalise the pace of their learning. Each family has different circumstances and we will agree a homework plan. 

2. In order to maximise the time spent teaching in a lesson I suggest that, if possible, parents mark maths and reasoning homework (where applicable) and I mark English homework. To ensure this can be done in a timely manner please send the English homework to me either by WhatsApp (07462051906) or by email (paul@paulwilkinson.org) at least 24 hours before the lesson is scheduled to take place. 

 

REPORTING & COMMUNICATION

1. Feedback to and from parents is an essential part of the process in order to work in partnership with parents. I give verbal feedback on each lesson at the end of the session and allow up to 10 minutes for this. This feedback includes what I covered in the lesson, improvement points and homework tasks. If you ever want additional information or have questions at another time then I am available Tuesday to Friday during normal business hours by email (paul@paulwilkinson.org), WhatsApp (+447462051906) or telephone (+447462051906).   

 

TUITION FEES

1. Lesson fees are based on a 60-minute session and dependent on the location of the lesson as follows: 

From my home classroom the fee is £60.

Online the fee is £60.

From your home the fee starts at £80 and is dependent on the distance from SW17 0TT.  ​​

​

1. Payment for sessions is to be made in half-termly blocks and the payment for each block is due at least 24 hours before the first lesson of each block. If payment hasn’t been received by this time then the lessons will not take place. 

 

PAYMENT METHODS

1. Payment is to be made by bank transfer. 

​

CONDITIONS OF ENROLMENT

1. An administration fee of £50 is payable to engage me as a tutor for your child. The registration fee is not refundable or transferrable to other students or family members.
