How private tutors track payments
A simple payment tracking approach for freelance tutors — paid vs pending, tied to packages, without accounting software.
2026-08-12
Quick answer
Record each payment against a student and package, mark paid vs pending the same day money moves, and review unpaid items weekly.
Why chat history is a bad ledger
WeChat messages and bank notes scatter. A one-line payment record per event is enough: who, how much, which package, paid or waiting.
A weekly money glance
- Who paid this week
- Who is still pending
- Which packages need renewal soon
