Terms and Conditions
Awesome Home Tuition only provides referrals to customers for tuition services. Any service that Awesome Home Tuition or the private tutor provides is subjected to the terms and conditions listed below. By using the services of Awesome Home Tuition, the customer has to acknowledge and accept our terms and conditions.
FOR Parents/Students
Service
Awesome Home Tuition Agency cannot guarantee that the tutor will help to improve the results of the student. We believe that both parties must put in equal effort to benefit from our service. We will not be held responsible for poor academic results. However, we guarantee to do the best on our part to help the student.
Contract
There is no contract involved, but you can request for a change of tutor or a refund after the first lesson if necessary. However, the tutor upon agreeing to take the assignment has to complete the minimum of 4 lessons without changing the rates or schedule. After the 4 lessons, the tutor is allowed to terminate the assignment. As much as we discourage them to do so, kindly inform us should such a situation occur and we will take the necessary actions.
Rates and Schedule
The tuition rates will be quoted to you by our coordinators. These rates are strictly non-negotiable. Kindly inform us immediately should the tutor try to negotiate a better rate for you. This is unacceptable by Awesome Home Tuition Agency and severe actions will be taken.
Payments
You are required to pay 50% of the first month’s fee to us via bank transfer or cheque before commencing the tuition. Awesome Home Tuition Agency reserves the rights to terminate any assignment should we not receive the payment at least 48 hours in advance before the commencement date.
The tutor will not be allowed to collect the payment on our behalf unless otherwise stated. If you insist on making payment directly to the tutor on the first lesson and the tutor decides to default the payment, you will be held liable for your losses. Awesome Home Tuition Agency will not be held liable for any confusion or inconvenience caused between you and the tutor. We strongly encourage you to keep the receipt or transaction numbers as evidence that you have made the payment. This will help us in verifying your payment.
We do not offer any trial lessons. However, if you feel that the tutor is unsuitable after only the first lesson, you may request for a change of tutor or a refund. You are required to pay the tuition fees directly to the tutor directly upon completing the required number of lessons within the first month.
Location
It will be held at the customer’s residence. However, if you prefer it to be held at your relative or friend’s place, it can be arranged as long as the location is available. We will not be held liable if the given location is occupied or unable to be used and it will still be counted as a paid lesson. Should you wish for it to be held at the tutor’s residence, it will be subject to the approval of the tutor.
First Lesson
Once you have accepted the tutor assigned to your assignment, you will not be allow to change the schedule of the first lesson unless for urgent cases (e.g. student is seriously ill). However you will be required to inform us in advance so that we can make the necessary arrangements. Kindly check the NRIC and qualifications of the tutor on the first lesson.
Cancellation and Postponement
You will be only allowed to make changes to the tuition schedule after the first lesson. However, we do not recommend you to do so as the tutor has already reserved that slot for you. If you would like to make changes, you would need to liaise directly with the tutor.
Responsibility
We will not be held responsible for any claims arising out of any injury, damage or loss while attending home tuition and this includes all cost, and expenses incurred as a result of such claims.
