Applied Tutoring controls and operates the Site from various locations and makes no representation that this website is appropriate or available for use in all locations.

The site lists tutors who are willing to be engaged by you as independent contractors, or part-time employees. As independent contractors, the listed tutors control the methods, materials and all aspects of the lessons.

New 1-on-1 Standard students are subject to a one-time $60 profile set up fee. This fee may be waived at the discretion of Applied Tutoring only.

All Prepayments for tutoring services will be held as a credit for future tutoring services. Refunds of unused hours can be issued if requested in person, by phone, in writing, or by email within (30) Thirty Days of purchase. After Thirty Days, these hours may be used as a credit towards tutoring services. Tutoring credits expire if unused after (180) One Hundred and Eighty Days.

general terms

The Terms constitute the entire agreement between you and Applied Tutoring relating to their subject matter, and cancel and supersede any prior versions of the Terms.

You waive any requirement for the posting of a bond or other security if Applied Tutoring seeks such an injunction.

Any express waiver or failure to exercise promptly any right under the Terms will not create a continuing waiver or any expectation of non-enforcement. If any provision of the Terms is held invalid by any law or regulation of any government, or by any court or arbitrator, the parties agree that such provision will be replaced with a new provision that accomplishes the original business purpose, and the other provisions of the Terms will remain in full force and effect.
