Tutors

The following arrangements are understood and agreed by both parties: 

General Once a tutoring position has been confirmed, you are entering into a contract between you (the tutor) and the client (the student, or the student's parent/guardian). Bright Young Things Tuition LLP (BYT)  acts as agent on behalf of the tutor and the student. BYT is only responsible for finding students and an appropriate teacher for the specific subject, and is not responsible for the content of lessons and the teaching methods. 

The terms of contract entered into by you with the client shall be in the form provided by BYT unless otherwise agreed by BYT. Upon signature of the form by the client, you will return to form to BYT duly signed by you.

Private Arrangements 

In consideration of BYT providing you with students , you are not permitted to make private arrangements for tuition with clients introduced by BYT or with new clients introduced by BYT clients. Should you breach this obligation, you will be liable to account to BYT for all sums received by you from the client/new client  without deduction and BYT shall be entitled to obtain an injunction against you to prevent further breaches.

Any  work referred to a tutor by a client of BYT must be billed through BYT on your behalf.  BYT is happy to negotiate on commission for new clients referred to you by our clients but BYT must process the billing.

As part of the service, BYT will collect the fees due from students and passing them on to you,net of a commission. BYT invoices clients on behalf of tutors, based on time sheets submittedinto the BYT website.

Your must keep your on-line time sheet up to date. BYT recommends that tutors keep a signedrecord of all lessons taught (or cancelled with less than 24hrs notice) and expenses agreed with client(signed by client after each lesson). We do not need to see this but if a client disputes hours that areinvoiced we will be unlikely to be able to pay tutors if this record has not been signed.
