How Sessioned works

From search to session in a few simple steps — whether you're a student looking for help, or a tutor looking to teach.

Just want to know where to click, and what is bookable today? Start here — this page is the detail behind it.

How does it work for students?

1
Tell us what you need

Use the matcher on our homepage — share the subject, level and what you're hoping to achieve. Or browse tutors and filter by subject, price and availability. No account needed to start.

2
Message & book

Message a tutor to introduce yourself and check they're the right fit, then pick a date, time and session length and confirm your booking.

3
Pay securely

Pay via Stripe at checkout — your tutor keeps their full rate. You'll see it plus a transparent 20% Sessioned fee that covers verifying every tutor, secure payments and support. No subscriptions, no hidden charges.

4
Attend your session & leave a review

Join your live session in the built-in online classroom — no downloads. Afterwards, leave a review to help other students find great tutors. If the first session isn't the right fit, we'll rematch you and refund it.

How does it work for tutors?

1
Create your profile

Sign up, add your qualifications, subjects and bio, and set your own hourly rate. Upload a photo and your DBS details to build trust with students.

2
Set your availability

Mark the days and times you're free to teach. Students can only book your open slots — you stay in full control of your schedule.

3
Receive bookings & teach

Students book and pay upfront. You get notified, deliver your session online, and your full fee is paid to your Stripe account weekly.
