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

Schools buy a hiring pack: ₦40,000 for 7 days, ₦100,000 for 1 month, ₦250,000 for 1 term, or ₦500,000 for 1 year for matches, CVs, and contact. Parents and diaspora families request tutors free and fund only approved lesson payouts plus the 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.
