Tutoring: Managing your learner's enrollment
Adding additional meetings
If you would like to extend your current enrollment, click on Add Meeting, choose from the available class dates (highlighted in a purple circle), and select a meeting time.
If your enrollment does not have future meetings scheduled, when a new meeting is added, you will pay for the new class immediately. Future weekly meetings will automatically charge on Sunday using the payment method on file.
If your enrollment already has future meetings scheduled when adding a new meeting, you will pay for the new class immediately if it meets during the current week. Future meetings will automatically charge on Sunday to the payment method on file.
To convert a one-time meeting to a recurring weekly schedule, click Extend. If the class meets during the current week, you’ll pay for the first class upfront. Future meetings are automatically charged weekly on Sundays.
Please note that withdrawing from a class will remove access to all class content.
Accepting Teacher-Suggested Meetings
Parents are notified by email when teachers suggest new meeting times. There will also be a banner at the top of the enrollment management page where you can either decline or accept the meeting time.
You’ll have three days to accept or decline teacher requests to reschedule or add additional meetings. For added class meetings, you’ll pay for the new class when approving the addition. Future weekly meetings are charged automatically on Sundays using the payment method on file.
Rescheduling and canceling meetings
Families can cancel and reschedule future meeting dates from the list of upcoming meetings. Please note:
Families receive a credit return for the meeting(s) they cancel within 24 hours of auto-renewal.
Families can reschedule up to 48 hours before the meeting.
Families can reschedule all future recurring meetings with one request if it matches the teacher's availability. If the teacher is unavailable for any of the meetings, the request can't be completed. Families can reschedule individual meetings that fit the teacher's availability, or contact the teacher to arrange a different time.
When canceling, you will see credit return eligibility and can choose to cancel one meeting or all future meetings in the recurring schedule.
After canceling all future meetings, families will continue to have access to the classroom.
