Setting accurate availability ensures students can only book you when you are actually free. Keeping it up to date reduces cancellations.

  2. 2Click on a time slot in the weekly calendar.
  3. 3Select "Repeating" to set that slot for every week.
  4. 4Choose the start and end time.
  5. 5Click "Save". Students can now book that slot.

Blocking time off

  1. 1Go to Tutor Dashboard → Availability.
  2. 2Click "Add unavailability" for specific dates (e.g., holidays).
  3. 3Set the date range and reason (optional).
  4. 4Save. Students cannot book during blocked periods.

Setting a booking buffer

Under Availability Settings you can set a minimum booking notice (e.g., "Students must book at least 2 hours in advance") and a gap between lessons (e.g., 10 minutes between sessions).

Tutors who keep their availability calendar up to date appear higher in search results.
