Student Agreement

STUDENT AGREEMENT

Revised 4-2-2026

IMPORTANT – PLEASE READ CAREFULLY: This Student Agreement (this “Agreement”) is made by and between the student and the parent(s) or legal guardian(s) (those who are involved with setting up tutoring, those paying for tutoring—parents or legal guardians are one and the same for the purposes of this Agreement and hereinafter referred to as “Guardian” or “Parent”) of the student identified in the web box connected to this Agreement and CogniTutor, LLC, a Florida limited liability company (“CogniTutor”), located at 514 Charlotte Road, Auburndale, FL 33823, and is effective as of the date contained on the attached box (the “Effective Date”).

In consideration of the mutual covenants and agreements herein, and other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are acknowledged, and intending to be legally bound, the parties agree as follows:

Enrollment in Tutoring. Guardians hereby engage CogniTutor to provide tutoring services (the “Tutoring Sessions”) to the Student at a time, location, and frequency to be mutually determined by the Parents, Student, and CogniTutor, pursuant to the terms of this Agreement.
1. Scope of the Tutoring Sessions. The Tutoring Sessions will be provided to the Student in accordance with the type of tutoring requested by the Student or Parents.
2. Absences and Cancellations. The Guardian or Student is expected to provide notice of intent to cancel the tutoring session at least six (6) hours in advance. After the first cancellation or “no-show”, the Guardian will be charged an amount equal to the lesser of the entire Tutoring Session or 1 hour of tutoring, unless payment is being made by a CogniTutor Partner. If a Guardian or Student cancels a Tutoring Session at least six (6) hours or more prior to the scheduled start time, the tutor will attempt to schedule a makeup session with the Student. In the event CogniTutor must cancel a Tutoring Session for any reason, Guardians will be notified and the Tutoring Session will be rescheduled.
Session Prices. Parents are jointly and severally liable for the price of session agreed to at the time the first session is scheduled in the CogniTutor system, unless payment is being made by a CogniTutor Partner. Prices vary depending upon the type of tutor and the lesson type and are subject to change at any time upon prior notice to Guardians or CogniTutor Partner, as applicable. Guardians of individual students not affiliated with a CogniTutor Partner must provide credit card information to CogniTutor and hereby authorize CogniTutor to automatically process payments after the completion of each Tutoring Session.
1. Late Fees and Penalties. CogniTutor assesses a late charge of ten percent (10%) on any payment not received by the tenth (10^th) day after the date of invoice. In addition, one or more late payments, at the sole discretion of CogniTutor, may result in termination of the Student’s enrollment.
2. Returned Check Fee. If a check is returned to CogniTutor for any reason, a thirty-five dollar ($35.00) processing fee will be assessed.
3. Refunds. In the event Guardians and Student are unhappy with the tutor assigned to the Student and notify CogniTutor within 48 hours of the first Tutoring Session, CogniTutor will assign a new tutor to the Student, and the Parents or CogniTutor Partner, as applicable, will receive a credit that will be applied to the first Tutoring Session with the new tutor. Parents and Student have a 30-day trial period in which CogniTutor will refund any pre-paid amounts for scheduled Tutoring Sessions, provided such Tutoring Session is not scheduled to begin less than 24 hours from the time CogniTutor receives notification of request for such refund. After the first 30 days, there will not be any refunds for pre-paid amounts.
4. CogniTutor offers a referral incentive to our students. When a new student, referred by an existing student, signs up for at least 3 tutoring sessions, the referring student will receive a 20% discount on their next 3 sessions (cannot be applied to previously billed sessions).
Term and Termination. This Agreement shall continue on a month-to-month basis unless terminated by Parents or CogniTutor.
1. Parents may terminate this Agreement by giving CogniTutor ten (10) business days’ advance written notice. For example, for a Tutoring Session scheduled to take place on October 11, notice must be sent on or before October 1.
2. CogniTutor may terminate this Agreement upon immediate written notice to Parents in the event that the Student and/or Parents fail to follow CogniTutor’s policies and rules. In the event of termination by CogniTutor, no refund will be issued.
Independent Contractor. The parties understand and agree that the relationship of CogniTutor to Parents, the Student, and CogniTutor Partner, as applicable, is that of an independent contractor. CogniTutor retains full independence in exercising judgment as to the manner in which the Tutoring Sessions are provided.
Representations, Warranties, and Covenants of Students and Parents.
1. Location. Parents represent and warrant that the location selected for the Tutoring Sessions, if other than online or at a public location such as a library, is safe and free from potential hazards.
2. Supervision of Minor Students; Adult Presence Requirement. Parent(s), Guardian(s), or Caregiver(s) (collectively, “Responsible Party”) hereby acknowledge and agree that, at all times during any tutoring session in which the Student is a minor (a person under the age of eighteen (18)), a Responsible Party or another responsible adult who is eighteen (18) years of age or older and has been authorized by the Responsible Party shall be physically present on the premises where such tutoring session is conducted. Under no circumstances shall a CogniTutor tutor and a minor Student be permitted to occupy a closed or private room, space, or location without a qualifying adult present, whether in person or within reasonable and unobstructed proximity. This requirement is instituted for the protection, safety, and well-being of both the minor Student and the tutor, and failure to comply with this provision may result in the immediate suspension or termination of tutoring services at the sole discretion of CogniTutor. Furthermore, the Responsible Party agrees to supervise and monitor the conduct and behavior of the Student and to ensure that the Student remains courteous and respectful toward the tutor at all times. The Responsible Party and Student further agree to conduct themselves in a courteous and respectful manner toward the tutor at all times. Any complaints or concerns regarding a tutor’s conduct or performance shall be directed exclusively to CogniTutor through its designated complaint resolution process.
3. Assignments. Students and Parents agree that the Student will make every effort to complete the work assigned by the tutor prior to the next Tutoring Session.
4. Test Scores and Grades. Students and Parents agree to report to the tutor all test scores, test results, and grades for the subject being tutored in order to assist the tutor in tracking the Student’s progress.
SAT/ACT Higher Score Guarantee.

If you meet one-on-one with your CogniTutor instructor and your official SAT test score (Math, Reading, and Writing combined) or your official ACT test score (English, Math, Reading, and Science composite) does not improve by 60 points or 2 points respectively, you may be eligible for the SAT/ACT Higher Score Guarantee in the form of 3 sessions one-on-one for 1.5 hours each. In order to qualify for the Higher Score Guarantee, students must:

Complete at least 20 hours of one-on-one ACT or SAT test prep with your CogniTutor instructor
Complete all of the weekly assigned homework (prior to your course expiration date or official test date, whichever is earlier)
Complete CogniTutor pre-assessment (the baseline score) before tutoring begins
Complete at least 5 practice tests before the official test, including 2 timed, graded tests on a Saturday (8 AM to 12 PM) simulating the real test and review these tests with your tutor
Take the official SAT or ACT on the next official test date following the final session of your applicable program
Submit official score reports to support@cognіtutor.com and request the repeat program within 1 month after the official SAT or ACT test scores are released

How CogniTutor measures improvement for the Free Course Guarantee

Your starting score (the score you got on the ACT or SAT before taking a CogniTutor SAT/ACT preparatory course for the first time) will be determined as follows:

If you have taken an official SAT or ACT no more than 6 months prior to the start of your CogniTutor course, your starting score will be your prior official SAT or ACT composite score.
If you have taken an official PSAT no more than 1 year prior to the start of your CogniTutor course, your starting score will be the SAT or ACT equivalent of your PSAT score.
If you have not taken an official SAT or ACT test 6 months or less before the start of your CogniTutor course, your starting score will be the results from your first assessment practice test in our program. (Note: CogniTutor courses do not always start with a first assessment practice test; the courses may differ depending on the specific student’s needs. It is the responsibility of the student and/or parent to ensure the student has a valid starting score.)

We will compare your starting score with the results of your score on the official test you take on the next official test date following the final session of your CogniTutor SAT/ACT course. Eligibility for the above Free Course Guarantee is limited to students whose starting score is 1330 or below for the SAT and 30 or below for the ACT.

For all other subjects and tests besides the SAT and ACT:

At all times, CogniTutor and its tutors will act in good faith in the best interests of the Student, and will prepare for and conduct Tutoring Sessions under this Agreement with integrity and due care. However, CogniTutor does not and cannot guarantee results, including but not limited to favorable test results, scores, or grades, or warrant the results of its Tutoring Sessions in any way. CogniTutor makes no warranties, either expressed, implied, or statutory, as to any matter whatsoever, including without limitation, the performance, results, fitness, or Student improvement.

Release and Waiver of Liability. Parents, on behalf of themselves and the Student, as well as their successors, assigns, agents, and representatives, hereby release and forever discharge CogniTutor, its legal representatives, its assigns, and those acting with its authority and permission (the “Released Parties”), from and against any and all claims, demands, actions, complaints, suits, or other forms of liability arising out of any accident, injury, loss of property, or any other circumstance or incident that may occur during or as a result of the Student’s participation in the Tutoring Sessions. In no event shall CogniTutor’s aggregate liability arising out of or related to this Agreement, whether arising out of breach of contract, tort, or negligence, exceed the amounts paid to CogniTutor by Student.
Indemnification. Parents hereby agree to indemnify and hold harmless the Released Parties from and against liability for all claims, losses, damages, and expenses, including reasonable attorneys’ fees and costs, that arise out of or are related to: (a) actions or omissions of Parents and/or the Student; (b) Parent’s and/or the Student’s failure to comply with local, state, and federal laws; or (c) Parent’s and/or the Student’s failure to comply with the terms of this Agreement or the policies and procedures of CogniTutor.
Intellectual Property Rights. Parents and Students acknowledge and agree that all intellectual property rights and ownership of the Tutoring Sessions, curriculum, materials, processes, methods, designs, analyses, trademarks, service marks, and other indicia of origin, writings, audiovisual works, concepts, drawings, reports, and all similar, related, or derivative information or works belong to CogniTutor or its licensors and may not be copied, reproduced, resold, published, transferred, or distributed, in whole or in part, without the prior written consent of CogniTutor.

By using CogniTutor’s service, Parents do authorize CogniTutor to use any photograph, videotape, audio tape, name, likeness, creative work, test results, scores, voice, and other improvements of the Student for the purposes listed in this section.

Exclusive venue for any action to enforce or interpret this Agreement shall be the state or federal courts located in Polk County, Florida. This Agreement is the complete and final expression of the agreement of the parties with respect to its subject matter.
