Practical tips for organizing sessions, engaging students, getting paid, and running your tutoring business.

Hi Everyone! This week’s updates include some exciting new features to invoicing and making changes to the attendees of a recurring group event. If you happen to make an error invoicing a family, it is now possible to mark an invoice as “Void” rather than deleting it. This is particularly …
Hey Everyone! This week’s update is just a few small fixes while we continue working on some larger features. We fixed a minor issue with the invoices that would prevent the detailed description for books and other manually added charges from appearing. If you try to delete (or take attendance …

Hi Everyone! We’ve got a few great features involving the new student sign-up form that will help with the upcoming back to school season! We’ve added a “Policy Agreement” type to the custom Sign-Up form fields (and contact form fields). Many of you were struggling to set up your form …
Hey Everyone! TutorBird will now detect whether or not the student you’re entering is a duplicate. The prompt will show you the status of the student (ex. inactive) and provide a link to edit their Student Details page. This will be very helpful when dealing with a previously inactive student …
Hey Everyone! We have a couple new features this week to help bulk assign students to an existing group (or create a new group) and the ability to add more information to your Lending Library. From the “Students” menu, we’ve added the ability to bulk assign students to Groups from …
