If you find yourself waiting in the lesson space with no sign of your pupil, don’t worry. It happens.
Pupils can sometimes be late or need to miss the lesson completely.
During the lesson
Make sure to stay in the lesson space for the full 55 minutes. That way, if they show up, you’ll be there to use the remaining time. And if they don’t, you’ll still get paid for your time.
Remember that the recording starts from the moment you enter the lesson space, even if your pupil isn’t there.
You might get an in-lesson cover opportunity. This happens when you’re waiting for a pupil, and another pupil is waiting for their tutor. So we match you up. If you accept this, you get an extra £10 for managing to deliver a quality lesson with no prep.
After the lesson
There’s no need to let us know about the pupil’s absence. Teachers can track attendance, and we follow up if pupils seem to be struggling to attend their lessons.
