Tutoring and learning centres: enrolment, scheduling, and parent billing in one place.
Yes — a tutoring or learning centre can schedule one-to-one sessions and group classes, take enrolments, bill families on recurring plans or session packages, and keep parents updated, all from one platform with a website and newsletter included.
The teaching is the part you trained for. The reschedules, the package that ran out mid-term, and the parent who is not sure when the next session is — those are the parts that eat the evening.
Key takeaways
- Book one-to-one sessions per tutor and run group classes as enrolling terms.
- Sell session packages and passes, or bill monthly on recurring plans — no percentage cut of your revenue.
- Give parents a portal with the schedule, history, and invoices, plus a newsletter that already knows them.
- Website, scheduling, billing, and comms in one place, from $39/month with two months free annually.
How do you keep a term's worth of sessions straight?
Each tutor has a calendar; each subject can be a class with a cap and a waitlist. Packages count themselves down, so the "you have two sessions left" conversation happens automatically instead of from memory.
- Per-tutor scheduling for one-to-one sessions
- Group classes and terms with enrolment and waitlists
- Session packages and passes that track their own balance
- Recurring billing for monthly and term plans
- A parent and student portal with schedule, history, and invoices
How do parents stay in the loop?
Families get one place to land: their sessions, what they have paid, what is left, and the next thing on the calendar. A newsletter that already knows your families means term reminders and new-class announcements go out without exporting a list.
Tmbr Solo: $39/month for a single tutor. Tmbr Studio: $99/month for a centre. Scheduling, enrolment, packages, recurring billing, a parent portal, a website, and a newsletter together — two months free when you pay annually.

Yes. Sessions book per tutor; classes run as enrolling terms with caps and waitlists, in the same schedule.
How do session packages work?
Packages and passes track their own balance and count down as sessions are used, so the remaining count is always current.
Can I bill families monthly?
Yes. Recurring monthly or term billing runs through Stripe, with no percentage cut of your revenue.
Do parents get their own login?
Yes. A portal shows the schedule, session history, and invoices in one place.
