I also can't leave out that the customer support is the best of its kind.  

Adminstrator 

I like how everything in integrated and the functionlity is awesome and easy to use.  

Some of the most important easy-to-use features include the following:  creating student accounts, creating parent accounts, creating tutor accounts, scheduling sessions, emailing session reports after each session to both students and parents, invoicing and payment (auto deposited into your account), QuickBooks integration, online learning that includes the use of webcams and whiteboards (and more).

Top-notch Training: Although the customization and training costs extra, it is well worth the expense.

LearnSpeed will set everything up for you so that you are ready to go after your training ends.

Basic

The integrations are a standout feature — having scheduling, payments, communication, and student management all in one place saves a huge amount of time and money.

It’s a very user-friendly platform that allows you to get up and running quickly, and the all-in-one functionality is a major advantage. While support responsiveness could be improved, the system itself is reliable and intuitive. If you’re comfortable working things out independently, it’s a great choice for managing a tutoring business.

Is there a way to have the comments send automatically without having to click on the recipients at the bottom of the screen each time?

My students all over the world can access their portal, notes, scheduling, invoicing, after class notes, my blog and resources I add for them.

We needed a platform to help us manage our rapidly growing company...we needed one system to manage our instructor and client schedules, invoicing, contractor payroll, etc.

Further customisations of the business settings, including using credits to sign up for lessons (if prepaid), similar to the make-up credit system.

founder and CEO

Would be nice to have a place specifically for parents to store report cards.

Does all my admin work for my small business, such as scheduling, payments etc.

Teacher

I use Google Meets to tutor, so each family has a unique session ID.

Math Tutor

Tutorbird has provided me an easy way to manage my tutoring business by using the calendar, invoicing, session notes, and expense tracking.

It has intake forms I can put on my website, it has easy calendar and session booking use and easy invoicing and payroll features.

Easy to use, provides everything I need to run a successful business.

Founder

It provides a user-friendly interface and integrates essential features such as scheduling, billing, and communication tools.

I wish it had more report running capabilities like profit and loss.

CEO, Lead Tutor

However, we would like to see the ability to allocate the tutor to a timezone, where their lessons automatically change time based on the selected timezone instead of having to manually change this.

Tutorbird is very user friendly and the customer support is amazing!

Company Director

Functions too simple can’t change pay between jobs

It is great overall, I would to know if there’s a way to calculate commissions too.

My favorite features are the invoicing, calendar, and easy report generation for tax purposes.

Consultant

The setup process is a little difficult to set up,

Founder  Owner

Tutorbird has relieved me of so much work such as invoicing, attendance and scheduling of tutors.   

Founder - EF Coach

It may be fine in the long run but I miss being able to make simple changes to the font size and style so the words can fit.

Teacher, Tutor, Consultant

Right now, I have to manually input those transactions.

Literacy Specialist

I tried different ways to run my business: -Talking with families and creating spreadsheets for their personal information-Hand creating invoices-Using spreadsheets for tracking attendance and billing datesThis was all WAY too cumbersome, not professional, left clients information vulnerable, and left HUGE opportunities for human error.

Owner and Lead Tutor

I think there are a lot of features that Tutorbird is missing such as the following:-Notifications to administrators when tutors book, cancel, or reschedule appointments-"Invoices" are actually statements and when clients make payments we can't match to specific appointments-Its integration with Quickbooks-There is no app

Tutor Business Owner

The advice given during the initial training session was to introduce a small late payment fee and my goodness this has been revolutionary for my small business. Since joining Tutorbird and doing this,  my invoices are all calculated automatically, go out on time and, more importantly, get paid quickly too.

Online Educator

Still can't figure out the automatic invoicing and how it does not tell me who paid via Stripe and how it does not sync fully to my Google Calendar. When I make a change in my Google calendar, it does not sync with Tutorbird's calendar.

Overall, it's very difficult to come up with something that I don't like since it's been working well for our business so far.

Founder/Owner

Currently I have to keep checking individual students to see if they have submitted - quite time consuming and confusing- Integration with Convertkit would be great as I have to manually add registrations to convertkit at the moment- More flexibility in registration form.

Music Teacher & Martial Arts Instructor

The main feature I wanted from Tutorbird was the ability to organise all my clients, their details, lessons, notes and emails with automated and quick/comfortable systems (instead of having to slowly input all the details in a spreadsheet, and individually email / bcc clients, which I did for years).

Overall I would highly recommend this service to anyone.

I love that my tutors can take their own attendance and can check their schedules independently.   

That I can receive enquiries, schedule my students, invoice them, and then set it up the invoice automatically and receive the payments as well.

Private Reading Specialist 

It has greatly helped me streamline all of the admin pieces of running a business (tracking attendance, calendar management, lesson reminders to clients, invoicing, parent notes/communication, tracking expenses, and even sending automotive birthday emails to my students!

Calendar syncing limitation for Google, lack of notifications to tutor for new events, awkward method of transferring info from tutor to student and vice versa

The one stop shop aspect to TutorBird is the best!

I love being able to manage almost every aspect of my online tutoring in one place.

Currently, any lesson notes sent and any following lesson notes sent for the same lesson is added to the same section and if we send out subsequent lesson notes for that same lesson, everything is consolidated.

Chinese Tutor

You have to use their website building blocks, and there is little you can do outside of what they provide.

Business owner 

It would be good if you could link your bank account to the system so that clients could transfer and then the system send paid receipts and mark invoices as paid.

Company Owner

It saves me hours of time in admin but also keeps accurate details and records of clients and lessons, so it improves customer service.

This really is more my fault, but even after watching the training clips on YouTube, I wasn't confident enough to integrate the parents and students.

I would also like to use zoom links but not the PMI of my zoom account.

ESL teacher 

I wish there had more integrations with google applications and for scheduling with different timezones to add multiple time zone features for viewing

Private Tutor 

I love that feature that allows parents and students to receive automated email and text reminders before appointments.
