Session Scheduling & Booking

Q: Can tutors manage multiple calendars at once?

Yes, the automation syncs availability across all connected calendars, so tutors never show conflicting slots to parents.

Q: Are session details automatically added to records?

Yes, once a parent confirms a time slot, the system creates a calendar event and logs all session details to your tracking spreadsheet without manual entry.

Q: What if a tutor needs to block off time or change availability?

Tutors update their calendar as usual, and the automation reflects those changes in real time when parents view available slots.

Q: Does the system work with existing email and calendar tools?

Yes, the automation integrates with Gmail, Google Calendar, and other mainstream email and calendar platforms tutors already use.

Keep your tutoring calendar full without playing phone tag or chasing confirmations manually.
