How to fill in each field
Student & subject
Name the student and subject per session so parents can follow the work.
Common mistake: Billing 'tutoring' with no session detail, prompting questions.
Session dates & hours
List each session's date and duration; use consistent rounding.
Common mistake: A monthly lump with no dates, hard for parents to verify.
Rate
Show your hourly rate; note if exam prep or subjects differ in price.
Common mistake: Mixing rates without labeling which session was charged what.
Prepaid credit
Deduct any prepaid package/credit before the balance due.
Common mistake: Not tracking prepaid blocks and double-charging.

Frequently asked questions
What should a tutoring invoice include?+
Your details and the parent/student, an invoice number and period, each session's date, subject, hours and rate, any prepaid credit, and the balance due with payment terms.
How do I invoice for tutoring?+
List each session by date and subject with hours × your rate, subtract any prepaid package, and use short terms (Net 7) since these are usually small, recurring amounts.
Should tutors ask for prepayment?+
Prepaid session blocks are common and reduce chasing. Track the credit on the invoice and deduct used sessions so the balance is always clear.
