What to include on a Tutor invoice
Your invoice needs your business name or full name, contact info, and an invoice number for tracking. Include the student's name, the date, and a clear description of what you taught (subject, number of sessions, dates of sessions). Break down your hourly rate and total hours, or list per-session charges. Parents and their accountants want to see exactly what they paid for, especially if they're claiming education expenses on taxes.
Most tutors bill weekly or monthly depending on session frequency. Some ask for payment upfront for a block of sessions, which protects you if a family ghosts. Others invoice after sessions are completed with payment due within 7 to 14 days. If you're tutoring through the school year, consider requiring a deposit at the start to secure the time slot. Avoid net 30 terms unless you're working with a school district.
Send invoices the same day as your last session of the week or month. The faster you invoice, the faster you get paid while you're still fresh in the parent's mind. Also, track makeup sessions carefully and note them on invoices. Families dispute charges when they can't remember if a Tuesday session happened or was rescheduled.
Frequently asked questions
How do tutors set their rates?
Tutors charge $30–$100/hour depending on subject, level, and qualifications. Test prep (SAT, GRE) commands $75–$200/hour. Group tutoring reduces the per-student rate to $20–$50/hour.
What should a tutoring invoice include?
Include student name, subject/topic covered, session dates and times, duration per session, materials provided, and payment terms. For ongoing clients, invoice weekly or monthly.
Should tutors charge for prep time?
Some prep time is expected and built into your rate. For extensive custom curriculum development, assessments, or progress reports, bill the additional time as a separate line item.
