Each session, a tutor will arrive at the agreed-upon location via their own transportation. From there, the student and tutor can work wherever is most convenient, as long as the space allows the student to focus. The only supplies a student needs for a session are a hard surface to work on and a pencil. You can then leave the student and tutor to work. At the end of the session, simply pay the tutor (cash or e-payment accepted) and they will leave, again by their own means.
