Tutor Inquiry Form (Academic Tutoring)

Tutoring inquiries are subject-specific — algebra II in March is one tutor, AP Chemistry in October is another, SAT prep in summer is a different schedule entirely. The form captures all three.

Tutor Inquiry Form (Academic Tutoring) — example splitforms template with submissions inbox
§ 01Why it mattersthe qualifying-fields argument

Tutoring is paid by parents and consumed by students — the form has to capture both. A high-school junior needs SAT prep; the parent pays $80-150 an hour and wants weekly progress reports. The form captures subject, grade level, current grade or test score, target outcome, and weekly hours. Test-prep tutoring is seasonal (PSAT in October, SAT in March/May, AP exams in May), and good tutors fill their slots 6-8 weeks ahead of the test. Online vs in-person preference matters too — post-2020, online tutoring is the default and pricing is 15-25% lower.

§ 03Three steps3 steps · ~60 seconds

Generate, embed, receive.

Three actions stand between you and your first lead. None of them require a backend, a database, or a CAPTCHA library.

STEP 01GENERATE

Capture subject and grade

Required: subject, grade level, current grade or test score, target outcome (next test / next semester / college admissions). Optional: school, current teacher's curriculum.

Create your form
key=sk_live_••••••••
STEP 02EMBED

Capture schedule and format

Hours per week needed, online vs in-person preference, days/times available. Tutors fill slots far in advance — schedule fit is half the qualifying decision.

STEP 03RECEIVE

Send the discovery call link

Auto-respond with a Calendly link for a 15-min call between tutor, parent, and student. Three-way calls confirm fit; the parent commits, the student stays engaged.

§ 06FAQ4 answered

Things people ask before they ship.

Direct answers, no marketing fluff. Missing one? Email hello@splitforms.com.

01Should the form go to the parent or the student?
Both. Parent provides billing and signs off on schedule; student (high-school+) is on the call. Capture both names and emails — the auto-responder threads to both addresses with a parent-facing summary and a student-facing 'what to bring to the first session'.
02Can I integrate with TutorBird / Teachworks / Oases?
Yes — webhook the JSON. All three tutoring CRMs accept inbound leads via Zapier. Lead lands as a prospect with subject, grade, and contact pre-filled, ready for the trial-session booking.
03How do I handle test-prep urgency vs subject tutoring?
Add a 'when do you need help by?' field. Test-prep with a March SAT date routes to a different auto-responder than 'ongoing weekly support'. The first is a tight package; the second is a recurring engagement.
04What about FERPA / minor data?
Tutoring is private services, not a school — FERPA technically doesn't apply, but treat student academic data as sensitive. Don't ask for SSN, school ID, or transcripts on the public form. Save the formal intake for the post-discovery onboarding.
