The majority of my tuition is one-to-one, allowing me to tailor lessons to individual needs. While I have strong skills in teaching larger groups, I limit group sizes to four students, and only when it benefits them—such as for exam preparation or focusing on specific areas of English.

 

Please note that I operate independently, and have no association with any franchise, which allows me to offer much fairer group fees - £20 per hour for groups of four - while providing personalized teaching that avoids rigid, gimmicky programs. Lessons take place at my home in Didsbury, where students can focus without distractions and benefit from an extensive range of tailored resources.

 


 

Terms and Conditions

 

"The teacher" is Julia Maine.

"The tutee" refers to the person receiving or paying for tuition.

 

These Terms & Conditions may change without notice. Updates will be posted at manchesterenglishtutor.co.uk/FeesandTerms.htm.
 

First Lesson

Payment for the first lesson, plus an advance for the final lesson (as a deposit for breaches of the 48-hour cancellation policy), is required at the start or before the first session. To continue, both the tutee and teacher must sign these T&Cs.
 

Method of Payment


Cash is payable at the start of each lesson, or advance bank transfers for blocks of ten lessons (not for individual lessons). No cheques, please.

 

Attendance & Reservation of Weekly Slots


Weekly term-time slots are reserved for tutees with regular attendance and punctuality. Persistent absence or lateness may result in the slot being reassigned and replaced with cancellation slots, available on an as-needed basis.

 

Sharing Weekly Slots


If sharing a slot with a sibling (under special agreement) by alternating weekly attendance, an extra £3 per hour will be charged for the second tutee.
 

48-Hour Cancellation Policy


Cancellations made within 48 hours will be charged in full, except in cases of illness preventing school or work attendance.
 

Punctuality


Late arrivals will not extend the lesson time, and the full fee remains payable.

Tutees must be collected promptly to avoid disrupting the next lesson. Repeated lateness may result in losing the time slot.
 

Homework

Consistent failure to complete homework may result in losing the time slot.

Please bring to every lesson completed homework, your Homework Log, and learning resources.
 

Progress Monitoring


Progress can be tracked via marked work and the Homework Log. For questions, speak to the teacher when dropping off or before the lesson ends.
 

Copyright


Resources are copyrighted and not for redistribution.
 

Parking


Please park considerately to allow neighbours access to their driveways.

Anything else

Just ask and I will be delighted to assist. For details of my qualifications, experience and fees please follow the links at the top and bottom of each page.
