Tutors, Educators Turn to Online Student Scheduling Software to Manage Summer Tutoring Sessions

April 16, 2010 - PRLog -- Scottsdale, Ariz. – Tutors, teachers and instructors planning their summer tutoring sessions are turning to online student-scheduling software to help them better manage their lessons.

Appointment-Plus (http://www.appointment-plus.com/tutoring_software.php), a leader in online appointment-scheduling software, gives tutoring professionals the tools they need to automate their lesson-setting procedures.  The online scheduler offers such functions as secure self-scheduling, which allows their students to book their lesson dates and times at their own convenience, 24 hours a day; automated e-mail and text reminders on upcoming sessions; online payment options; and robust report-generating capabilities.

Appointment-Plus is a Web-based application that does not require any software installation or costly computer hardware. Because it’s accessible from any Internet connection, tutors can manage their sessions outside their home and office.

“Education never takes the summer off, and tutors throughout the country will offer instruction for students of all ages and grade levels during the summer recess,” says Jeff Fleming, director of marketing at StormSource Software, the developer of Appointment-Plus. “Appointment-Plus helps tutors and educators automate their entire scheduling process, which means they’ll spend less time booking their appointments and more time teaching their students.”
