In consideration for the provision of services and the use of the platform, CLASSGAP will charge a commission to the teachers according to the level of Teacher they have in CLASSGAP at that moment:

There are 5 levels of Teacher, depending on the number of hours performed in CLASSGAP:

  •  Beginner teacher (<25 hours), a 32% commission will be charged on the price of the lesson.
  • Intermediate teacher (25<->59 hours), a 27% commission will be charged on the price of the lesson.
  • Advanced teacher (60<->299 hours), a 23% commission will be charged on the lesson price.
  • Expert teacher (300<->499 hours), a 18% commission will be charged on the lesson price.
  • Legend teacher (>500 hours, during the last two years), a 16% commission will be charged on the lesson price.

Once you have reached a category you can never go back to a lower one, except for the Legend category which is calculated based on the lessons you have given in the last two years. All other categories accumulate over time.

 

12. I am a teacher, how much does the service cost?

 

You can set the price you want to receive per hour of class given. Tus Media will charge the fixed price with a percentage that varies depending on whether the contract is made through the Teacher or through the CLASSGAP Website and/or distributors contracted by Tus Media and/or affiliates.

 

1. Through the Teacher: Tus Media will charge the price set by the Teacher with a 10% intermediary commission in the event that the booking is made through its own channels, via a link provided for this purpose.

 

2. Through Tus Media or affiliates: Tus Media will charge a variable percentage as intermediation commission depending on the total number of hours carried out by the Teacher in CLASSGAP. You can consult the percentage in the following table:

 

 

Unlike the New and Professional Teacher, which are based on the overall number of hours in CLASSGAP, the Star Teacher is linked to the completion of a minimum of 250 hours in the last calendar year. The value of applying this percentage must be higher than 1.25€. If it is not, the minimum of €1.25 per hour will be applied. The above percentages include all costs and services offered by CLASSGAP, including:

 

1) Student Recruitment: we take care of finding you new students to teach.

 

2) Charge management costs by: debit or credit card, Paypal.

 

3) Payment security: we assure you that you will be paid for all the classes given.

 

4) Use of the CLASSGAP Virtual Classroom where you can carry out the Classes, as well as monitoring and assessment tools.

 

5) Payment management costs: bank transfer or Paypal.

 

3. Depending on the level of visibility you have chosen, your profile will be more or less visible and other fees will be applied to the first Class with each Student.

 

We reserve the right at any time to change the commission for services (or to start charging for free services) provided that such changes are not retroactive to charges paid prior to the time of the change.

 

 

13. I am a teacher, when and how will I receive the amount of my classes?

 

At the end of each month we will analyse the amount you have accumulated from classes taken more than 24 hours ago. There are two scenarios depending on the amount you have accumulated:

 

1. You have accumulated more than 50 euros: We will make before the end of the month and free of charge an automatic transfer to your bank account (for EEC accounts) or to your Paypal account.

 

2. You have accumulated less than 50 euros: In this case we will keep the amount until the month you reach 50 euros.

 

This duality in the method of payment is intended to save costs for all parties. Therefore, if the teacher resides outside the EEC countries, he/she must have set up a Paypal account in CLASSGAP to facilitate such payments.

 

The Teacher must comply with their tax and other obligations arising from the sale of their courses. However, Tus Media is not responsible for monitoring compliance with these obligations.

 

14. What is my level of visibility as a tutor?

 

The visibility of your profile in the tutor grids depends on several factors:

 

The level of visibility selected from your personal area.

The quality of your profile, i.e. the number of Lessons conducted in CLASSGAP, your approval and message reply time, your conversion rate from free to paid Lessons.

Your current availability. You will not appear on the days you have marked as absent from your personal area.

 

15. Packages of tutoring hours

 

Teachers may optionally offer reduced tuition hour prices if the Student contracts packages of hours in advance.

 

Packages will be for a minimum of 5 hours, and must be spent on 1 hour lessons. All packages are valid for 6 months, and are valid only with the selected Teacher.

 

Once one or more classes of a package have been completed, no refunds will be given, except in cases where the teacher certifies that he/she is unable to continue teaching.

 

16. 20 min free trial lessons

 

Teachers may optionally offer students a 20-minute test. Students may book a 20-minute test free of charge with those teachers who have this option.

 

A maximum of 3 simultaneous free bookings can be made per student.

A maximum of 1 free booking with the same teacher.

 

17. Cancellations and Refunds

 

The Student may request a full refund of the Class when:

 

1. The Teacher refuses to conduct the Class.

 

2. The teacher does not show up at the agreed date and time.

 

Within these conditions, the deadline for requesting a refund will be 14 days. 

 

After the first 14 days of purchase, no refund will be accepted, having the sole and exclusive option of refund in the form of a credit balance with a validity period of 12 months. 

 

The validity period for using the balance is 12 months. 

 

In the event that a student requests a full refund, CLASSGAP reserves the right not to pay the teacher for the class.

 

Tus Media, acts as a mere intermediary between the Students and the Teachers and is therefore not responsible for any claims that may arise in respect of cancellations or refunds made, errors in the same, or the Teacher's decision not to make them when the Class has taken place. In the event that the Student requests a refund of the price paid within 7 calendar days of booking the Class, provided that there are more than 48 hours left until the Class begins, and the Class has not taken place, Tus Media will study the reasons for the request and, if it considers them to be justified, may proceed with the refund, informing the Teacher of the reasons for the refund.

If you are a debit/credit card holder, you can choose the option "Save details for future bookings" so that you do not have to re-enter them for future payments.

Thus, of the total amount paid by the Student, Tus Media will receive the part corresponding to its intermediation commission, while the remainder will be received by Tus Media as a mere depository with the obligation to pay the Teacher its fees. Consequently, the Teacher will be solely responsible for the quality of the class(es) given, as well as for the invoicing of the same to the Student.

In the event that the Student requests a refund of the price paid within 7 calendar days of booking the Class, provided that there are more than 48 hours left until the Class begins, and the Class has not taken place, Tus Media will study the reasons for the request and, if it considers them to be justified, may proceed with the refund, informing the Teacher of the reasons for the refund.
