Logos Learning operates as an independent platform, and its relationship with tutors does not constitute employment. Therefore, Logos Learning cannot respond to any employment verification requests, including, but not limited to, schedule and/or payment confirmations, nor will it act as a reference.
Tutors listed on the Logos Learning platform are responsible for informing third parties seeking employment verification that they are self-employed. Logos Learning does not provide employment verification, and if required, tutors should consult relevant entities, such as banks or companies, that may have their own verification procedures, potentially involving bank statements or tax returns. Logos Learning emphasizes its role as a marketplace for tutor-student connections and makes clear that it does not offer employment or employee-like benefits and, as a result, does not fulfill requests regarding employment verification for listed tutors.
No, as tutors affiliated with Logos Learning operate independently, the company does not issue W2 forms for tax purposes. Instead, tutors will receive a Form 1099 if their earnings amount to $600.00 or more in a calendar year. To obtain a Form 1099, Logos Learning's Finance Team will report the earnings to the IRS, and a PDF version of the 1099 will be accessible in the user's account shortly thereafter. If earnings fall below $600.00 in a calendar year, a Form 1099 will not be supplied, and users can view their earnings totals on the Payout page. For assistance with tax information retrieval, users can contact Logos Learning's Customer Support Team.
The service fee charged by Logos Learning is allocated for the development and maintenance of services aimed at enhancing the student experience, which ultimately results in increased opportunities for tutors. It’s important to highlight that this fee is also applied to lesson cancellations, acting as an $8 service fee.
Logos Learning respects the autonomy of its tutors listed on the platform, and as a result, the company does not have the authority to modify the lesson or cancellation fees set by the tutors. If a student has concerns about the fees charged by a tutor, the appropriate course of action is to directly communicate with the tutor to discuss the matter.
Logos Learning exclusively facilitates payments to teachers through direct deposit. We do not support payments via check. During the registration process for tutor sign-up, all tutors are required to provide their direct deposit details to enable payment deposits.

No, according to the Logos Learning Academic Honesty Policy, tutors are explicitly prohibited from assisting students in taking exams or writing their papers. Tutors on the Logos Learning platform are expected to refrain from engaging in any activities that might violate the academic honesty policy, including completing assignments or exams on behalf of students. Their primary role is to provide guidance, support and explanations to help students understand the subject matter and improve their academic skills, but they must not complete any work for the students.
If a student is late for a session and arrives within the first 10 minutes of the scheduled session, the session will proceed but will still end as originally scheduled. For example, if a 1-hour session is scheduled and the student is 10 minutes late, the session will still conclude after 1 hour. The lost 10 minutes will not be added to the session’s duration.

This ensures that those who wish to undergo a background check have the flexibility to arrange and cover the cost of the process themselves.
