Policies and Protocols
Online Tuition
Terms and Conditions
Communication:
It is encouraged that all online tutors interact with parents as a first point of contact via email, phone and any social media platforms. Online tutors will not seek communication with students through student contact details unless parents have encouraged this.
Parent/caregiver, student and tutor interactions must stick strictly to professional standards. This is to ensure the safety of all parties. It is important to discuss only matters to do with the student's education and tuition scheduling, when communicating outside of online tutorial sessions.
Resources:
All online tuition resources are to be available for student use during the tutorials. It is a breach of Copyright to distribute material to others without the consent of Tovah's Tutoring Company Ltd.
Mature themes:
All online tuition resources are at the NZ Curriculum content level. Any material or mature themes that may be of concern to the online tutor will be either discussed with the student prior to their online tuition time or presented to the parent/caregiver prior to use.
Payment and refunds:
Payment must occur before the online tutorial has commenced.
An administration and planning fee of $20 will occur with any refund request.
No online tuition refunds will be given between October and December as this is a busy season for NCEA exam preparation and limited spaces apply.
Any late cancellations upon the day of the tutorial will incur a $20 late cancellation fee. When informing us of late cancellations, make sure you phone, text or email the manager. Tutors have the right to cancel and/or discontinue any further tuition with anyone based on late cancellations, payment complications, and/or behavioural issues.
Safety:
It is at the discretion of the student and online tutor/staff member to determine if they would like to use their video camera during an online tutorial. If any occupants feel uncomfortable or unsafe online it is encouraged to address this with the manager.
All online tutorials can be attended with parental guidance.
All online tutors are advised that online tutorials will occur only in public areas of the online tutor's house, if an office is not available. Public area is defined as a place where others can occupy such as a dining room or lounge.
If a student or caregiver shows signs of or presents us with information which impinges on the safety of the student and/or their environment, it is at our discretion to inform appropriate authorities.
Live recording:
If live recording or photographic evidence needs to take place, all participants of the online tutorial will be informed at the beginning of the online tutorial. The use of live recording and photographic evidence can be used to (but limited to) demonstrate online teaching practice for registration, promotional material, and/or educational notes.
