Booking & Refund Terms

Last updated September 29, 2026

Rates

  • Foundations (K–8): $50/hour, online or in person
  • High School (Algebra I – Precalculus): $60/hour, online or in person
  • Advanced (Calculus, Stats, College, SAT/ACT): $75/hour, online or in person
  • Hour packages: 5 hours save 5%, 10 hours save 10%.
  • Your rate is based on what you need help with. We may adjust it if your needs change; the new rate applies only to future purchases and bookings.

Buying time

  • Tutoring is prepaid. Buying time adds credit to your account balance, worth the full hourly value of the hours you bought.
  • Payments are processed by Stripe. We never see or store your card number.

Free 30-minute session

  • Each new family gets one free 30-minute session.
  • To claim it, you verify a card with Stripe. The card is not charged. Each card can claim only one free session.
  • The free session follows the same booking and cancellation rules below. If you cancel it at least 4 hours before it starts, you can book it again; after that, it's used up.

Booking

  • You can book any open time shown on the booking page — those are the hours our tutors have said they're available.
  • Sessions must be booked by the day before the session. Same-day booking isn't available.
  • When you book, the session price is taken from your balance (or your free session is used). If your balance doesn't cover it, you pay for it right then; we hold the time for you for 35 minutes while you do.
  • A booking is a request until a tutor confirms it. The tutor has until midnight at the end of the day before your session to confirm.
  • If it isn't confirmed by then, it's cancelled and fully refunded automatically. We'll email you either way.

Cancellations & refunds

  • Before the day of the session: you can cancel from your account for a full refund to your balance.
  • On the day of the session, at least 4 hours before it starts: your tutor has already reserved that time, so you get a 50% refund to your balance.
  • Less than 4 hours before the session starts: cancelling is not refunded.
  • Missed sessions (no-shows) are not refunded.
  • If we decline your request or have to cancel a confirmed session, you always get a full refund.
  • Refunds are returned to your account balance so you can book another session. For questions about your balance, please contact us.

In-person sessions

  • Our public meetup spot is Glenn McNairy Branch Library, 4860 Lake Jeanette Rd, Greensboro, NC 27455 (map). Choose it when you book an in-person session.
  • You can ask to meet somewhere else instead (for example, your home); we'll confirm the place with you.

Times

  • All times are Eastern Time (Greensboro, NC). "The day before" and "midnight" are in Eastern Time.
