The tutor and the client will be solely responsible for any issues arising from the information that the client and you have submitted to us

USE OF INFORMATION
The primary purpose in collecting personal information is to provide the users with a smooth and customized matching experience

To ensure success of the Tuition Assignment, Tuition Singapore is selective of the type of students we accept as there is a small percentage of students who are not suitable for tuition

To assist Tuition Singapore to make better decisions regarding tuition assignments that match your credentials and expectations, we will ask for your personal information. The personal information collected includes but is not restricting to the following:

1. Private information such as name, and birth data
2. Contact information such as email address, mobile number and physical residential address
3. Qualification information for verification purposes that include:
A. grades obtained, certificates, awards received, and schools attended
B. Description of tutoring experience and commitment levels
4. Preferred teaching locations
5. Preferred teaching subjects
6. Preferred hourly tutoring rates
7. Additional information which we may ask for if we believe the Website’s policies are violated

MOE TEACHERS/NIE STUDENTS
Tutors who are current MOE teachers are required to obtain the necessary approval from the Ministry of Education before accepting any assignment from Tuition Singapore

ACCURACY OF INFORMATION
The tutor shall fill in as accurately and completely as possible his/her name, contact details, qualifications, results, relevant experience, subject and level preferences, and will update such information in a timely manner when applying for tutor assignments

The tutor shall not mislead users accessing the website and using Tuition Singapore’s services. You will not provide inaccurate, invalid, false or incomplete information to Tuition Singapore when responding to tutor assignments

The tutor is solely responsible for any legal liability arising out of or relating to the Tutor Profile submitted to Tuition Singapore, and shall indemnify Tuition Singapore against any and all claims, damages, liability, loss, or causes of action (including legal fees and expenses that may be incurred by Tuition Singapore) in connection with the provision of services by this website

TUITION REQUESTS AND TUTOR ASSIGNMENTS
The tutor understands that the information submitted to Tuition Singapore pertaining to his/her qualifications may be released by Tuition Singapore to the Client(s) for the purpose of tuition matching 
The tutor and the client explicitly agree to Tuition Singapore and our network contacting you via Whatsapp, phone call, sms and/or other electronic communications channels to conduct tuition matches
If the proposed Tutor Assignments interest you, please reply us via Whatsapp, sms or through the same electronic communications channel that we contacted you with. There is no need for you to call us
Please note that Tutor Assignments would be confirmed with the client and tutors based on the most qualified match and prompt response from the tutor
We reserve complete rights to reject any applications for the tutor assignments
If the tutor is not interested in the Tutor Assignments that we contacted you with, please disregard the assignment message

CLIENTS’ CRITERIA FOR SELECTING TUTORS
The criteria stated by the client for each Tuition Assignment can differ from case to case

Some clients require MOE teachers, others state their preference for experienced undergraduates with proven experience to improve the grades of their students

Tutor Assignments are based on tuition demand and how well the profile of each tutor matches with the client’s requirements

Tuition Singapore makes tutor recommendations based on the tutors’ known track record in successful tutoring

The submission of the tutor’s profile to the client does not bind the client to engage the services of the tutor, and remains subject to confirmation by the client.

FEES AND COMMISSION
Once the tutor and the client confirm a match, the tuition rate is non-negotiable once agreed upon
The client will pay to Tuition Singapore the fees amounting to half of the fees payable in the first 4 calendar weeks. This amount shall be deemed as the commission to Tuition Singapore for matching the tutor to the client, and will be borne by the tutor who will forgo receiving the said fees paid by the client. Therefore, no payment will be made by the client to the tutor for half of the lessons conducted in the first month
Thereafter, the client will pay the tuition fees directly to the tutor. The tutor shall collect all fees due to the tutor from any student or parent after the first two weeks. Tuition Singapore will not assist in any recovery of fees
Tuition fees are to be paid every 4 weeks to the tutor, unless otherwise agreed between the client and the tutor
If lessons are postponed during the first two weeks, the commission payable to Tuition Singapore will be based on the tuition session conducted the following week(s)

ACCEPTANCE OF ASSIGNMENT
Upon receiving an Assignment Description, the tutor may apply for the Assignment. If the tutor is chosen by the client, the tutor is bound to conduct the lessons as stated in the Assignment Description, or as mutually amended in subsequent communications

TRIAL LESSON
Paid trial lessons can have 1.5 hour or 2 hour durations

TUTORING LOCATION
The tutor will be teaching at the student’s residence at the mutually agreed upon time, unless specified and agreed by the client and the tutor. The tutor must provide his/her own transport to the client’s home/lesson location

FIRST LESSON
Once the client accepts the tutor’s candidacy, the client will not be able to change the schedule of the First Lesson
Clients are allowed to make changes in the schedule after the First Lesson is over. However, Tuition Singapore hopes that this is not necessary as the tutor has already reserved that slot of time for the client. If the client wants to make changes in the schedule, the client is to consult with the tutor to ask if he/she is able to change the schedule or not
The tutor is to bring your academic transcripts/certificates and relevant documents for your first lessons with the client for verification purposes
If the tutor is unable to conduct the First Lesson of a tuition assignment, the tutor must call Tuition Singapore at least 3 business days before the actual lesson. If the tutor fails to notify Tuition Singapore of the tutor’s cancellation/postponement, an administrative charge of S$30 will be imposed on the tutor
If the tutor fails to contact Tuition Singapore with a valid reason to inform us about the tutor’s absence from the lesson, the tutor’s profile at Tuition Singapore may be blacklisted. This will be evaluated on a case-by-case basis
You are encouraged to carefully and responsibly consider before committing to any Tutor Assignments

CENTRAL PROVIDENT FUND
Tutors agree to be responsible for all required obligations to the Central Provident Fund as a self-employed person. This is because, you, as a tutor, are providing private tutoring services under a contract of service to the client as an independent contractor. The tutor is not an employee of Tuition Singapore, and the tutor accepts full responsibility for all income tax and other liabilities payable in relation to any fees generated from a tuition assignment

TUTOR REASSIGNMENT OR CANCELLATION OF ASSIGNMENTS
If at any time the client is not satisfied with the tutor, the client may request a replacement or termination. However, the client is responsible for paying the fee for the number of lessons given prior to termination
Tuition Singapore will discuss separately with the client and the tutor regarding future tuition arrangements, and Tuition Singapore will change the tutor for the client. There will not be any extra charges for the change and the client needs to pay just for the tuition session(s) that have been conducted
If the client cancels a tutoring assignment before the tutor completes the agreed number of lessons for the first 4 calendar weeks, Tuition Singapore assumes full legal claim to 50% of the tuition fees for the total number of lessons delivered in the month. For example, if the client had requested for 8 lessons per month, but the assignment was cancelled after the 5th session, Tuition Singapore will be paid commission for the 5 lessons conducted
Tuition Singapore will not be liable for any payment charges or issues arising from the cancellation of tuition assignments by the client
If the client terminates the Assignment because the tutor is often late, skips lessons without valid explanations etc, the tutor will bear Tuition Singapore’s full commission fee
If the tutor cancels the Assignment after confirming acceptance (that is, the client’s contact information and address have been given to the tutor), the tutor will need to compensate the commission which amounts to 50% of the fees payable (as stated in the confirmation Whatsapp, sms, email or other forms of electronic communications) for the first 4 weeks
If the tutor wishes to cancel a Tuition Assignment before the end of the first 4 calendar weeks, the tutor is to inform both Tuition Singapore as well as the client at least 3 days before the next lesson date. Tuition Singapore will recover our legal share of the one-time commission of 50% of the fee for the first 4 calendar weeks from the tutor. Tutors are encouraged to have a long-term commitment as the clients have vested their trust in you

TERMINATION
The client has the right to terminate the tuition if the tutor is unable to produce the documents certifying his/her credentials. In such cases, the tutor has to pay Tuition Singapore the amount of money equivalent to the tuition fee for the day as commission
The tutor will receive full or pro-rated payment for the number of lessons rendered, provided the tutor has complied with the Terms of this Agreement

DISCLAIMER
While Tuition Singapore tries to provide clients and tutors with the closest tutor match possible, we cannot guarantee a satisfying match. We hold no responsibility or liability for problems, unhappiness, or disputes that are a result of the tutor or client. Tuition Singapore will not act as an arbitrator for any disagreements that arise between tutor and client. However, Tuition Singapore may try to mediate whenever possible and reserves all rights to blacklist any party who is at fault. Tuition Singapore reserves the right to terminate or deny services to any client or tutor at any time

LEGALIZATION OF NON-WRITTEN CONTRACT
At the point of time which the contact details of the clients or tutor(s) are given to either party, Tuition Singapore reserves all rights to collect the full commission once the tutors start providing services to the client. This is regardless of whether the tuition cancelled or postponed

PRIVACY
In view of the implementation of the recent Personal Data Protection Act, we require your explicit consent to contact you for tuition related matters. By registering with Tuition Singapore, you have given the Tuition Singapore network explicit consent to contact you through various electronic media, including Whatsapp, calling, and sms, etc.
