Why are some sessions restricted based on age?
Why are some sessions restricted based on age?
Updated over a week ago

At Schoolhouse, we believe that people of all ages can be incredible tutors. However, we do need to add some special protections to ensure that our younger tutors have a comfortable and age-appropriate experience.

For this reason, we have some limitations on who can join sessions hosted by younger tutors (13-17 years of age).

  • If you are 15 or under, you can tutor learners who are under 18.

  • If you are 16-17, you can tutor learners who are under 21.

  • If you are 18 or over, you can tutors learners of all ages.

What if I see someone outside of the expected age range in my session?

If you suspect that you have a learner in your session who is outside of the expected age range, please share this with our safety team at schoolhouse.world/report, so we can verify their age and update it accordingly.

What if I accidentally selected the wrong age when I signed up?

You may verify and update your age by going to your account settings.

Where can I go if I have concerns about these requirements?

Please share feedback or suggestions about these policies here. If you have questions about a specific situation, feel free to reach out to our user support team by clicking on the chat icon at the bottom right of the page.
