The Truth About My Tutoring Cancellation Policy (And Why It Benefits You)

March 10, 20252 min read

As a dedicated math and chemistry tutor for Alberta high school students, I’ve created a tutoring cancellation policy that ensures a balance between structure and flexibility. It’s not just about managing my schedule—it’s about fostering accountability, respect, and a productive partnership with families. Life can be unpredictable, but a clear policy helps keep everything on track, no matter the circumstances.


Notify Me 12 Hours in Advance for Cancellations or Rescheduling

Life happens, and sometimes plans need to change. If you need to cancel or reschedule your tutoring session, please provide at least 12 hours' notice. This allows me to adjust my schedule accordingly, and there’s no charge for cancellations made within this timeframe.

Late Cancellations Will Be Charged the Full Lesson Fee

If a lesson is canceled within 12 hours of the scheduled time, the session will still be charged for the full amount. This policy helps ensure that my time is respected and enables me to continue providing quality service to all my students.

Rescheduling is Always an Option (With Notice!)

I’m happy to work with families to find a new time for a session, provided you notify me at least 12 hours in advance. This flexibility allows us to stay consistent with tutoring while accommodating busy schedules.

Exceptions for Emergencies and Illnesses

I understand that emergencies and sudden illnesses can occur. In these cases, I ask parents or students to notify me as soon as possible. Open communication ensures I can adjust expectations fairly while maintaining a reliable tutoring schedule.

No-Shows Will Be Charged in Full

If a student doesn’t show up for a session and there’s no communication, the session will be charged at the full rate. This policy reinforces accountability and keeps the learning experience running smoothly.

Policy Information Provided at Registration

When you register for tutoring, you’ll receive an email outlining my tutoring cancellation policy along with other important details. This ensures that everyone is on the same page from the very beginning.

Why This Policy Works

A clear cancellation policy helps us build a strong foundation for success by:

  • Encouraging responsibility and respect for everyone’s time.

  • Allowing me to better manage my schedule to serve all my students.

  • Providing flexibility for rescheduling when needed.

This policy isn’t just about logistics—it’s about ensuring a positive, productive tutoring experience for both students and families.

By following my tutoring cancellation policy, we can create a partnership built on accountability and trust. It’s designed to make tutoring work for your family while respecting everyone’s time.
