3. Is there any charges if I request a tutor from Elite Tutor?
Ans: Absolutely not! There is no matching fee or hidden charges ever for parents or students. However, we do charge 50% of the 1st month’s tuition fee from the tutor as commission for helping them find a tuition assignment. For example, if the tuition fee of the 1st month’s tuition is $200, after the 2nd weeks we will collect $100 (50% of $200) from you. You are then required to pay the remaining $100 to the tutor directly at the end of the month. For subsequent months, you will pay $200 directly to the tutor.
* Do note for very short-term (usually less than a month) assignment, the tutor may sometime request that the parent absorb the commission
4. How do I make payment to Elite Tutor?
Ans: You are encourage to make payment via atm/bank transfer or cheque to our DBS Current Account 054-904361-3. For payment by cheque, kindly write the payee as: Elite Tutor. Alternatively, we can also send someone to collect the payment directly from you. An invoice will be emailed to you when payment is due.
5. Can I change the tutor if I find that the tutor is not suitable ?
