Frequently Asked Questions
Everything you need to know about using Tudius Inc. — whether you're finding a tutor or building your own academy.
For Students
How do I find a tutor?
Search by subject, region, or online availability. Browse tutor profiles with ratings, reviews, and real-time availability to find the right match.
How do I book a session?
Choose a tutor, select an available time slot, and pay securely via Stripe. Three booking types are available: Recurring (weekly or biweekly), Short-term (one-off session), and Trial (first-time experience).
How much does it cost?
Tutors set their own rate as $/30min. You choose the duration you need — 30, 60, 90 minutes, or more. Your total is the rate multiplied by the number of 30-minute blocks, plus a 5% platform service fee disclosed at checkout.
What is the cancellation policy?
Recurring bookings require 2 weeks’ notice, and cancellation takes effect at the end of the current billing period. Short-term bookings can be cancelled with 24 hours’ notice for a full refund.
Do I get progress reports?
Yes. Tutors generate session notes and periodic progress reports that are automatically shared with you — and with your parent or guardian, if connected.
Is it safe for students under 18?
Yes. We use COPPA-compliant age verification during signup. Students aged 13–15 require parental consent. Children under 13 are not permitted to create accounts.
For Tutors
How much does it cost to use the platform?
Plus: $9.99/month (1–5 students), Pro: $29.99/month (6–10 students), Max: $49.99/month (11+ students). Compare that to academies that take 30–40% of your earnings.
How does it compare to an academy?
Everything an academy does for 40%, we do from $9.99/month. Tutors keep 100% of their set rate (students pay a transparent 5% platform service fee), set their own rates, and maintain full ownership of their student relationships.
Can I bring my existing students?
Absolutely. Use our invite system to migrate your current students to the platform. They’ll get access to progress reports, scheduling, and secure payments immediately.
Is there a free trial?
New tutors get 1 month free. Tutors migrating existing students get 3 months free. Both receive a permanent “Founding Tutor” badge on their profile.
How do I get paid?
Connect your Stripe account during onboarding. Your listed tutor rate is paid out in full via Stripe Connect — the 5% platform service fee is collected separately from students at checkout and does not come out of your earnings. You keep 100% of your set rate.
What session types can I offer?
Recurring (weekly or biweekly, billed monthly), Short-term (one-off, single payment), and Trial (free or discounted first session). You control which types to enable from your dashboard.
What tools do I get?
A built-in planner with weekly and monthly views, Google Calendar sync, session notes, automated progress reports, student management dashboard, and an earnings overview — everything you need to run your own academy.
