2. If the student sends learning materials to their tutor in advance, tutors should familiarize themselves with the resources. A 15-minute preparation time is reasonable and part of the tutor’s service when conducting classes.

3. If a student asks for further work to be done by the tutor that extends 15 Minutes, these are the options:

   a) The tutor may take the time to help the student free of charge.
   b) The tutor may shorten the class time by a maximum of 30 Minutes.
   c)The tutor may charge for the additional service provided. For this, the tutor must send a brief E-Mail to Admin to inform them of the service and its duration. The student/parent must approve before payment is demanded.

The student is late

1. If the student appears within 15 Minutes of class start, the tutor can extend the lesson by the delayed time or finish on the scheduled time.
2. If the student appears after 15 Minutes or does not appear, the class is now considered a no-show. The lesson is considered formally conducted, and the tutor has a right to their income. As the class has not been participated in, the payment will not be refunded. The tutor should send an E-Mail to the student and CC admin to inform them of the current situation and get the student’s perspective on the situation. The tutor should attach relevant proof of no-show to this email.

The tutor is late

1. If the tutor is late by more than 10 minutes, the student is entitled to choosing one of the these options, depending on the circumstance: 
   a) A full refund
   b) A make-up class
2. The tutor will face additional charges as defined by their tutor/mediation contract
3. The tutor is expected to extend the courtesy of a free class or an increased class duration of the make-up class.
