Teacher membership terms

Last updated 8 October 2026

These terms apply when you become a teacher member of Tap Tuition. Please read them before you add a card. If anything is unclear, email teachers@taptuition.com.

1. Who we are

Tap Tuition (taptuition.com) is operated by KRH Trading FZ-LLC, a company registered in the United Arab Emirates ("we", "us"). Tap Tuition is a technology marketplace that helps families find independent teachers. We are not a school, tuition centre or education provider, we do not employ teachers, and we are not approved by or affiliated with KHDA or any other education authority.

2. What membership includes

  • A teacher profile on Tap Tuition once your checks are complete, showing your qualifications, subjects, year groups, price and real availability.
  • Booking requests and bookings from families.
  • 0% commission. Families pay you directly for lessons, and you keep 100% of your lesson fee.

Bookings are not guaranteed. How many families book you depends on your subjects, price, availability, area and demand. We do not promise any number of bookings or any level of income.

3. Price

Membership costs AED129 per month. The price and any tax that applies are shown before you confirm payment. We will give you at least 30 days' notice by email before any price change, and you can cancel before it takes effect.

4. Founding teachers and complimentary periods

We may offer founding teachers a complimentary (free) membership period. Its end date is shown on your membership page. If you add a card during a complimentary period, nothing is charged until that date, and only if you are still a member. If you don't add a card, your membership ends with the complimentary period and nothing is charged.

5. Billing

  • Membership is billed monthly in advance and renews automatically each month until you cancel.
  • Payments are processed securely by Stripe. Tap Tuition never sees or stores your full card number.
  • Receipts are sent to the email address you use at checkout.
  • If a payment fails, Stripe will retry it over the following days. If it still can't be collected, your profile is hidden from families until the membership is paid or you cancel.

6. Cancelling

You can cancel at any time from your private membership page (the link we send you), or by emailing teachers@taptuition.com. When you cancel:

  • No further payments are taken.
  • Your membership and profile stay active until the end of the month you have already paid for, then your profile is hidden.
  • Lessons already arranged with families are between you and the family. Please tell them if you can no longer teach.

7. Refunds

  • Monthly payments are not refunded for part-months, because your profile stays live until the end of the period you paid for.
  • If you were charged by mistake, charged twice, or charged after you cancelled, email us within 14 days and we will refund that payment in full.
  • If we close your membership when you haven't broken these terms, we will refund the unused part of your current month.
  • Refunds go back to the card you paid with. Banks usually show them within 5 to 10 working days.
  • Nothing in these terms affects any rights you have under UAE consumer law.

8. Your responsibilities

  • Give accurate information and keep your profile, prices and availability up to date.
  • Provide genuine documents for our checks: qualifications, identity, right to work in the UAE and safeguarding. We only show a qualification badge once we have seen the document.
  • Hold any licence, permit or registration you need to give private lessons in the UAE. You are an independent teacher, responsible for your own tax, permits and insurance.
  • Keep children safe, behave professionally and follow any safeguarding concern procedure we publish.
  • Only contact families about lessons they have asked for.

9. Checks, suspension and removal

We may pause or remove a profile, and end a membership, if documents can't be verified, if we receive a credible safeguarding concern, or if these terms are broken. Where it is safe to do so, we will tell you why. If a safeguarding concern is raised, we may share relevant information with the appropriate authorities.

10. Families and lessons

Lessons, lesson fees, cancellations between you and a family, and the quality of teaching are agreed between you and the family. Tap Tuition is not a party to that agreement and does not collect lesson fees.

11. Our liability

We work to keep Tap Tuition available and accurate, but we can't promise it will always be uninterrupted or error-free. As far as the law allows, our total liability to you is limited to the membership fees you paid in the 3 months before the claim, and we are not liable for lost income or bookings.

12. Your information

We use your details to run your membership, show your profile and carry out checks. See our privacy notice. Your documents and contact details are never shown on your public profile.

13. Changes and law

We may update these terms. We will email members about important changes at least 30 days before they apply. These terms are governed by the laws of the United Arab Emirates.
