Tutor Management

Tutor Management is Important
If your tutoring business has several tutors you'll understand the importance of having an effective tutor management system in place.  You'll often find that as the number of tutors in your business increases, the difficulty of managing all of their schedules, hour-tracking and payments becomes exponentially more difficult and time-consuming.  Without an effective tutor management system in place, you will need to spend a disproportionate amount of your time managing your tutors and you will have less time to focus on other parts of your business.


Tutor Managements Software
It's possible to manage your tutors with some basic software programs such as Google Calendar and an excel spreadsheet, but even these programs will only take your business so far.  A growing business needs a more robust tutor management system.  Programs exist for this specific purpose.  The most popular tutor management system is TutorPanel which manages all of the administrative sections in your website including tutor management.

Features Effective Tutor Management Systems
An effective tutor management system will help you manage tutor records including their contact information, subjects, availability, wages, etc.  It should also help you manage your tutors' schedules with an easy to use calendar feature that includes features such as viewing tutor appointments by month, week, day and the ability to view all tutors' schedules or only a single tutor's schedule.  Finally, an effective tutor management system should include an easy way to track tutor hours and calculate their earnings.  This should be linked to the calendar so that when you schedule an appointment, the tutor's hours can be added to the total immediately.
