Terms and Conditions
Last updated: January 2026
These Terms and Conditions govern the use of the PT Tutoring website and services. By accessing this website, submitting an enquiry, booking tutoring services, or making payment, you agree to be bound by these Terms. If you do not agree with any part of these Terms, you should not use our services.
1. About PT Tutoring
PT Tutoring (“we”, “us”, “our”) provides educational tutoring services to learners at Primary, High School, and University level. Services may be delivered online or in person, depending on availability, location, and agreement.
2. Eligibility
Our services are available to learners of all ages. For learners under the age of 18, a parent or legal guardian must provide consent, submit enquiries, and accept these Terms on the learner’s behalf.
3. Services Offered
PT Tutoring provides personalised tutoring services, academic support, mentorship, and study guidance. The scope, frequency, and format of tutoring are agreed upon prior to commencement and may vary per learner.
We do not guarantee specific academic outcomes, grades, distinctions, or examination results. Progress depends on multiple factors including learner effort, attendance, and external academic conditions.
4. Bookings and Scheduling
Tutoring sessions are scheduled by mutual agreement between the client and PT Tutoring. Session availability depends on tutor availability and subject requirements.
Clients are responsible for attending sessions on time and ensuring a suitable learning environment, particularly for online sessions.
5. Payments and Pricing
All pricing is communicated clearly before services begin. Prices may vary by learner level, subject, region, and delivery method.
Payments must be made in advance unless otherwise agreed in writing. Failure to make payment may result in suspension or cancellation of services.
PT Tutoring reserves the right to update pricing from time to time. Any changes will not affect already paid sessions.
6. Cancellations and Missed Sessions
Cancellations must be communicated in advance. Missed sessions without reasonable notice may be forfeited and are not guaranteed to be rescheduled.
PT Tutoring reserves the right to reschedule sessions in the event of tutor unavailability, emergencies, or unforeseen circumstances.
7. Refund Policy
Refunds are handled in accordance with our Refund Policy, which forms part of these Terms. Where applicable, refunds may be issued if services are deemed unsatisfactory or cannot be delivered as agreed.
Refunds are not provided for completed sessions or services already rendered, unless required by law.
8. Tutor Matching and Changes
We aim to match learners with suitable tutors based on subject needs and learning style. If a tutor is not a good fit, PT Tutoring may assign an alternative tutor where possible.
Tutor availability is not guaranteed and may change due to circumstances beyond our control.
9. Learner Conduct
Learners are expected to behave respectfully during sessions. Abusive, disruptive, or inappropriate behaviour may result in suspension or termination of services without refund.
Parents and guardians are responsible for the conduct of minor learners.
