Secure operational predictability and total margin command with infrastructure built for high-volume institutional logic.
The "Usage Tax" Problem
Teachworks operates on a model that charges you for every single lesson scheduled. For a professional center managing 2,000 students, this creates a volatile software bill that scales aggressively alongside your success.
At Tutearn, we provide the Learning Center OS for a flat, predictable rate. We are your infrastructure provider, not a stakeholder in your lesson volume.
Cost Comparison: 2,000-Student Operation
Example: A center with 2,000 students, each taking 4 lessons per month (8,000 lessons total).

1. Predictable Margins, Zero Volatility
Teachworks’ per-lesson fee makes your software overhead unpredictable. When you run a high-volume operation, scheduling shouldn't come with a micro-transaction.
The Tutearn Way: At 2,000 students, you pay one flat rate of $150/month. Whether those students take 4,000 or 10,000 lessons, your cost stays the same. This allows you to lock in your margins and reinvest your capital into your teachers and facilities rather than your software bill.
2. Unlimited Branches: No Location Penalties
Teachworks begins charging additional monthly fees for every location after your fifth branch. For owners managing a regional network or a growing franchise, this acts as an "Expansion Tax."
The Tutearn Way: Your Elite plan includes Unlimited Branches. Centralize your entire organization—from your flagship to your tenth satellite branch—under one unified command center without increasing your software bill.
3. Institutional Brand Authority
At the 2,000-student level, parents expect a high-end experience from a professional institution. Teachworks keeps their branding visible, which can make a large-scale business look like it's built on a rented template.
The Tutearn Way: The Elite tier includes Full White-Labeling. Your portals live on your domain with your logo and colors. It provides the "Institutional Infrastructure" that signals a premium, established academy.
4. Built for Complex Operational Logic
Teachworks is a general management tool. Tutearn is an OS built for the specific complexities of Southeast Asian centers. This includes Rule-Based Payroll for large teaching teams and Timeline Scheduling views that handle the gridlock of 20+ tutor calendars—complexities that legacy tools aren't built to automate.
Summary FAQ
Q: Does Teachworks really charge for every lesson?
Yes. Teachworks adds a per-lesson fee to your base price. For a 2,000-student center, these fees can exceed $1,500 a month, making the software significantly more expensive than an enterprise-grade OS like Tutearn.
Q: Is Tutearn's pricing flat for 2,000 students?
Yes. Our Elite tier ($150/mo) covers up to 2,000 students with unlimited lessons and unlimited branches.
Q: Does Tutearn help with the migration from Teachworks?
