Software for tutoring business owners

Keep the lesson agreement and the payer connected.

A full teaching diary can still hide preparation time and unanswered billing questions. Connect the administrative scope, payer contact and hours behind the service. Keep educational plans and learner records in your own teaching workflow rather than ordinary business notes.

The everyday details

You know the work.
The admin adds up.

The learner is not always the billing contact

A parent may pay for several subjects or more than one student. Clear invoice descriptions and contact arrangements help prevent a useful teaching relationship from turning into repeated billing questions.

Preparation is easy to overlook

Resource selection, marking and a parent review can take time outside the teaching slot. Without a record, a fixed lesson fee can hide much more work than the diary suggests.

A moved lesson needs a clear agreement

Cancellation, postponement and extra work mean different things for the account. Record the arrangement actually made instead of treating every calendar change as the same financial event.

Several subjects can share the same family account

A general tutoring description can hide different tutors, lesson types or agreed review work. Use business records that distinguish the services without putting detailed student assessments or private family circumstances into ordinary account notes.

A few useful answers

Questions from tutoring business owners.

Is this a learning platform or student assessment system?

Microtra does not deliver lessons, assess students or manage a specialist learner record. It organizes the business administration around tutoring.

What terminology does a tutoring business start with?

Other starts with Job and Client. Linked records and packages start off; change optional modules in Modules & terms if your operation needs them.

Can I track a tutoring pack?

Packages are not enabled by the Other setup. Switch them on in Modules & terms before managing packs inside the business; online package sales are coming soon.

Can families book through a public calendar?

Public online booking is coming soon. Arrange the lesson with the family and create the appointment in your business schedule.

Can I charge separately for an agreed parent review?

Use a separate service description when that review sits outside the lesson arrangement and the payer has agreed to it. Keep preparation and delivery time visible so the invoice follows the commercial agreement rather than every informal conversation becoming an unexplained extra.
