Question 1

Does TeachConnect take a cut of teacher pay?

Accepted Answer

No. Teachers and tutors receive their full agreed payout for approved work. TeachConnect’s service fee is paid by the school or parent on top of the teacher payout — never deducted from teacher earnings.

Question 2

What does TeachConnect do for schools?

Accepted Answer

TeachConnect reviews your timetable, identifies uncovered periods and clashes, matches certified teachers, student teachers, graduates, or specialists by subject, time, location, and duty scope, and manages protected payouts that are released only for approved work.

Question 3

Can parents and diaspora families use TeachConnect?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Parents and diaspora families can request trusted tutors for after-school, private, and online Nigerian-curriculum lessons, define the lesson scope, fund lessons safely, and release payouts only after approved lessons.

Question 4

How much does TeachConnect cost?

Accepted Answer

Post a vacancy and review applicants free. Contact access is free except for your strongest eligible match. Unlock your strongest eligible match for ₦2,000. See the price before you pay. Existing hiring packs retain their agreed payroll commission benefits, placement credit and offer allowances. A pack is not required for ordinary applicant contacts. Parents request tutors free and fund agreed lessons plus the displayed service fee. Teachers pay nothing.

Question 5

How do schools know a teacher is qualified?

Accepted Answer

Every teacher is verified before placement — identity, qualifications, and references, scaled to the role, including TRCN register lookup where the role requires it. Schools see verification status on every profile before approving a match.
