Set your rate at £35/hr and you keep £35. On the biggest platforms, tutors report keeping barely half of what the parent pays after commission. Here the parent pays £42 — your £35, plus our transparent £7. Your rate is yours.
Why teach with Sessioned?
Keep 100% of your rate
You set the price and keep all of it. Our fee is added on top and paid by the parent — never taken from your earnings.
Verified, not badge-optional
We check every tutor's identity and qualifications ourselves — so a verified badge on Sessioned actually means something to parents.
Matched, personally
Families are matched to you by a real person — you're not lost in a directory of thousands.
Flexible schedule
Teach when it suits you. Set your availability and students book around your calendar.
Get paid weekly
Earnings paid directly via Stripe every week. Transparent fees, no surprises.
Teach from anywhere
All sessions are online. Teach from home, a café, or anywhere with a good connection.
