Student accounts are created solely by TutorGator administrators. No one outside TutorGator can create or access a student account independently.
If you have any concerns about a session, a tutor's conduct, or anything that has occurred through the Platform, please contact us immediately at admin@tutorgator.com.au or 1300 042 867.
