About

TutorPlanning

Read full description

TutorPlanning is a shared week calendar for tutoring hours. Tutors open bookable slots, set cancellation rules and pricing, assign or clear lessons, and create monthly invoices to share or download outside the app. Students sign in to free slots, watch taken times, and cancel within the tutor’s rules. Parents can act for linked students from one login. Everything stays account-based and online. Notifications are local reminders on this device (lesson start, freed waitlist slots, near-term schedule changes) — not multi-device push yet. No in-app purchases. No ads.
