Services

You are responsible for your actions and omissions. The Site serves solely as a platform to connect Students and Tutors. In the event of any disputes with other users, you release MyPrivateTutor (including our parents, subsidiaries, officers, directors, shareholders, employees, agents, joint ventures, consultants, successors, and assigns) from any and all claims, demands, and damages (actual and consequential) of all kinds and nature, whether known or unknown, suspected or unsuspected, disclosed or undisclosed, arising from or related to such disputes. Students, Tutors, or representatives of institutes, as independent contractors, control the methods, materials, and all aspects of lessons.

We support the decisions and choices made by Tutors or Institutes. These decisions and choices are yours to make; we do not make decisions on your behalf. Our role is to assist you in finding suitable Tutors and connecting with them. Our Site allows you to ask informational questions and receive educational answers from Tutors. Students are responsible for choosing the right tutor or institute for their requirements. When making hiring decisions, Students should review and investigate each tutor's self-reported credentials, education, experience, and reviews from other students. ALL TUTORING SESSIONS SHOULD BE SUPERVISED BY A RESPONSIBLE ADULT.

  9. MyPrivateTutor is not responsible if you are unable to convert tuition inquiries into work through the connects facility. Please check the total number of views before you apply for any tuition. The more the number of views, the lower the chances of getting responses from students. The connects facility generates maximum effectiveness if you respond to the inquiry on the day it has been posted. However, we would not be accountable for any inconvenience caused.

  10. MyPrivateTutor is not responsible if a student’s mobile is switched off when you call or if students/parents do not respond to your queries. No connects will be refunded in such cases.

  11. All tuitions posted on our site are verified to the best of our knowledge. If the student or parent does not disclose any information beforehand, MyPrivateTutor will not be responsible for the same.

  12. A Tutor will accept full responsibility for the hourly rates or prices quoted by them for their services and presented in exact detail on the Site.

  17. We are not involved in any kind of interactions that take place between the tutors and students, and hence are not liable for any dispute, disagreement, misinterpretations, or arguments arising between the parents/students and the tutors.

  19. A Tutor is expected to conduct themselves in a teacher/coach-like manner that is generally prevalent and acceptable in a teacher-student relationship.

  20. As MyPrivateTutor is designated as a "Local Tutoring Marketplace" specific to respective countries, we require tutors to register and access the site from their base country. While occasional sign-ins from other countries are permissible, prolonged usage from a different location is not in accordance with our policies. If a tutor is found to be consistently logging in from a different country, their profile may be deactivated without provision for refund of connects or validity.

  7. Students or parents should understand that tutors are not our employees, and we cannot take responsibility for verifying their backgrounds and behaviors. MyPrivateTutor is just an online marketplace where tutors and institutes can advertise their services.

  8. No tutor can guarantee good grades; therefore, the grade you get cannot be a reason for a student to come back at a later time and demand a refund for services.

  9. Students/parents should use caution, good judgment, and proper language when leaving a review for a tutor. What you post will be a permanent part of that tutor's record. Please restrict your review to a tutor's teaching-related skills (communication skills, knowledge, patience, clarity, etc.).

  12. A student is expected to conduct themselves in a student-like manner, which is generally expected and regarded as ideal student behavior prevalent in the education stream.

  6. MyPrivateTutor is not involved in any kind of interactions that take place between a tutorial center and students, and hence MyPrivateTutor is not liable for any dispute, disagreement, misinterpretations, or arguments arising between the parents/students and the tutorial center.

  8. As MyPrivateTutor is designated as a "Local Tutoring Marketplace" specific to respective countries, we require institutes to register and access the site from their base country. While occasional sign-ins from other countries are permissible, prolonged usage from a different location is not in accordance with our policies. If an institute is found to be consistently logging in from a different country, their profile may be deactivated without a provision for a refund of connects or validity. We appreciate your cooperation in adhering to our guidelines.
