Insurance for Tutors

Who needs Tutoring insurance?

Tutors help students in specific subjects, or to prepare for exams. A tutor might work from their home or a student's home to help them study a subject. They might also work at a school or college and educate students before they sit for exams.

Tutors often have a teaching degree and may have additional training. They work with students one-to-one or in groups, and expectations are high. Tutors should have both general and professional liability insurance to protect themselves against claims or lawsuits.

Claims against a tutoring business can occur for a host of reasons. A student might fail a class or exam. An accident can occur where a student trips and falls on the tutor’s  property. Liability insurance can protect you from lawsuits while you grow your tutoring business. This is particularly true for tutors who work from their homes or own their own business.

Insurance coverage can protect you against claims like:

• Injury to a student in your care.
• Failing to educate a student or not covering a specific subject or topic.
• Tutoring methods that are improper or incorrect.
• Violating a student's civil rights.
