What to include
- The student's name and the person being billed, such as a parent
- Lesson dates or the billing period
- Hourly rate, package price or monthly fee
- Your cancellation and missed-lesson policy
- Materials or exam packs listed separately
- Payment methods and a due date
Common mistakes
- Not stating the cancellation policy before charging for a missed lesson.
- Billing without listing which lessons were taught.
- Mixing several students on one invoice without a breakdown.
- Leaving the due date open so payment drifts.
Practical tips
Invoice at the start of the month or before a block of lessons, so payment is not chasing past sessions. State your cancellation notice period in your first message and repeat it on the invoice notes. Offer a package price if you want predictable income, and show the discount as its own line so parents see the saving.
Frequently asked questions
Should tutors invoice before or after lessons?
Many invoice in advance for a block or month. Others invoice after each lesson. Advance billing reduces missed payments.
Can I charge for missed lessons?
If your cancellation policy says so and the client agreed in advance, yes. Put the policy in writing.
