  For every tuition assignment job, Celebrate Home Tuition is entitled to 50% of the first month’s tuition fees or the first 4 weeks tuition fees in the form of commission and the client who requests for a tutor will pay this commission to Celebrate Home Tuition. The commission will be collected from the client who had requested for the tutor when half the agreed amount of the lessons for the first month or first 4 weeks have been taught and the client will pay this commission to Celebrate Home Tuition. This payment is collected from the client two weeks after the tuition had started. If the client cancels the tuition assignment after the first lesson because the client is not pleased with the tuition services of the tutor, no commission for this lesson will be levied on the client and the tutor will not receive payment from this tuition assignment. However, every case will be reviewed as objectively as possible with the interest of all parties in mind.
4.  Dispute on the first tuition lesson. 
  The first lesson has been conducted. The client is required to pay for the lesson unless the client is not pleased with the tuition services of the tutor. As such the tutor may not receive payment. In such a case, Celebrate Home Tuition will investigate the situation. The matter will be handled with the interest of all parties in mind.
