Click on Bookings and once accepted it will ask you to paste a meeting link. You can use: Google, Zoom or Microsoft Teams.

An Edumentors staff member will attend every trial alongside the student and a parent. Please admit the team member to the meeting promptly.

Unless a specific topic is requested, choose a subject you enjoy teaching. Prioritise showcasing your strengths with interactive tools to make the trial engaging and fun.

After a successful trial, you will receive a booking request. Please accept the session promptly to secure the client.

Pending Payment means the session has not been paid for by the parent yet. Please do not start a session unless the status is “Confirmed”, make sure to contact support if your session is starting soon and the status is “Pending Payment”.

Tutors must give at least 24 hours’ notice before rescheduling or cancelling a session to avoid a fine. Frequent rescheduling will disrupt the students schedule and it could lead to a cancellation.

A makeup session is a missed paid session that was marked as completed before it could be updated. It will still show in the schedule at the original time, but the session itself will happen at the new rescheduled time. This means that the rescheduled session will not be on your dashboard / calendar.
