How do I set my availability?

You can edit and update your availability through your Availability tab in your tutor dashboard.

The most efficient way of organising your calendar is to set your core hours as recurring slots each week. Then, if you have the odd day where you can’t tutor, or you’re away on holiday, you can go to that day or week and individually remove those slots. Or, if you want to add extra availability on certain days or weeks you can add slots.

We suggest having at least two weeks worth of sessions available in advance.

1. Click Edit availability and you'll see your Recurring availability.

2. Fill in the days and times you want to teach each week and click Save.

3. Refresh your browser and your calendar will now show your available slots in dark purple. These slots will show up every single week.

4. Go to My availability

5. Select or deselect slots as required

6. When finished, click Save

We’ve added features to make this quicker and easier:

• You can click and drag across the calendar to select multiple slots in one go

If your schedule gets too busy or you’re planning to take time off, you can change your availability at any time. Make sure you keep your calendar up to date (for example, if you're going away), as it can be frustrating for parents if a slot appears available, they request it, and you’re unable to accept it.

Your availability should be an accurate reflection of when you’re genuinely free to tutor. Avoid marking all slots as available unless you can reliably attend sessions during those times.

Remember, if you’re fully booked or don’t want to take on any more students you should hide your profile.
