Example: 2hrs session to be adjusted to 1.5hrs
Answer: We advise tutor to firmly inform parent that the agreed number of hours per session is 2hrs as per stated and agreed upon. If tutor decides to proceed with the requested hour from parent, our agency commission fee will not be affected by the private settlement between you and the parent.
Answer: We do not advocate such practice from tutor as it reflects a lack of professionalism and long term commitment towards an assignment. We hope a long term commitment be built upon quality teaching and transfer of knowledge as the foundation.
