Questions
Can parents pay for packages of sessions?
Yes. Sell packages or subscriptions; sessions are booked on your calendar.
How do I start my own tutoring business?
Pick your subjects and levels, set your rates, then make it easy for families to find you, book and pay. Wakato gives you a website, a booking page that takes payment, reminders and an agent that answers parents, so you start without stitching tools together.
What is the best platform for a tutoring business?
For an independent tutor or a small centre, one place for booking, payment, parent messages and online sessions. Wakato has booking pages with payment, video calls with transcripts and an agent answering parents on WhatsApp, text and email.
Can I teach sessions online?
Yes. Wakato video calls run in the browser; the Free plan allows 40-minute calls with up to 4 people, and Pro allows longer calls, more people and recording.
Can parents get reminders and quick answers?
Yes. Reminders go to parents by text or email before each session, and the agent answers their messages about times, prices and rescheduling, day or night.
Can I sell a course or materials?
Yes. Sell a course or materials as a digital product, with the link sent to the buyer as soon as they pay. Selling comes with Pro and Business.
