After-school hours fill up first
Between 3:30 and 8 p.m. on weeknights, every slot counts. The weekly grid shows those hours at a glance, with each lesson coloured by payment: paid, owed, prepaid or still upcoming. A new family asking for Wednesday at 6? Tap the free hour and add the lesson right away.
Lesson lengths have presets for 45, 60, 90 and 120 minutes, plus “Other” for a 30-minute session with a younger child.
Rates that follow the grade
Most math tutors charge less for elementary than for Grade 12 calculus or AP. Every student has their own price per lesson, and siblings are simply two students with their own prices and balances.
Raising your rates in September? Open a lesson, change the price and choose “This & Future”: all following lessons take the new price, while past lessons and payments stay as they were.

In semestered high schools, a student who takes Advanced Functions or Calculus and Vectors in second semester only needs you from February — and those Grade 12 marks go straight into university applications. Start their weekly series in February, add a second weekday before the final exam, and end the series in June. Their history stays when they come back next fall.
Progress parents can see
Math confidence builds over months. A student's statistics show a month calendar with every lesson, how many there were, what's earned, due and lost, and a comparison with the previous month. Squool also gives achievements on its own — “Like clockwork” for a fixed weekly slot, “Iron discipline” for students who don't miss — so you have something specific to tell parents at report card time.
Snow days, unit tests and missed lessons
When a snowstorm closes the roads, cancel the lesson: it isn't charged, and any prepaid money goes back to the balance. If a student just didn't show up or log on, mark the lesson as missed and it's charged. Cancelled lessons count as lost income, so you'll know what a stormy January really cost you.

Questions and answers
Is there an app for math tutors in Canada to track students and payments?
Yes. Squool gives one tutor a weekly schedule coloured by payment, a balance for every student and monthly income, on iPhone, iPad, Mac and Apple Watch.
Can I charge more for Grade 12 calculus than for Grade 6 math?
Yes. Each student has their own price per lesson, and you can change it for one lesson or for all future ones.
What happens to a lesson cancelled on a snow day?
Cancel it: the lesson isn't charged, prepaid money goes back to the student's balance, and it shows as lost income.
Can I show a parent how many sessions their child had this month?
Yes. Each student's statistics show a month calendar with the number of lessons and the amounts earned, due and lost.
Does Squool store marks, homework or worksheets?
No. It handles your schedule and payments; a short note on each student card is enough for goals and course codes.
