Costs
What are the Costs?
All the specialist tutors are self-employed and therefore set their own rates per hour. The total amount that you will pay is indicated on the tutor’s profile *. Payment is split between the tutor and SENsational Tutors. See note about split-payments below.
*Please note that some tutors may charge for their travel time and other expenses. Please discuss this directly with the tutor.

Yes, most tutors suggest that you book an initial session. After the session you can discuss whether you would like to book more sessions. Your tutor will normally send you an invoice for the initial session for payment in advance. Your tutor will discuss this with you.
We are proud to have a transparent split-payment billing system in place. Once a month, the tutor will send a fee breakdown document to their clients. The client will then receive one invoice from the tutor for 70% of the total cost, and one invoice from SENsational Tutors for 25% plus VAT of the total cost. Â
Payment is made once a month. Your tutor will discuss their payment terms with you directly.
Your tutor will discuss and agree their cancellation terms with you directly.
If you have any questions about how to make payments, please contact us or your tutor directly.

Any parent concerned about their child’s wellbeing in school, their learning, independence or self confidence should call SENsational Tutors! No other company I have come across provides the care and attention I have experienced with SENsational Tutors. A truly magnificent tutor matching service. "
