The learner knows when maths support happens each week.
Regular Maths Plans
Don't buy random maths lessons. Reserve a rhythm.
Brilliant Maths regular tutoring is built around recurring reserved capacity — a predictable weekly schedule, monthly billing and enough continuity for the tutor to understand the learner instead of starting from zero every time.
- 12 monthsworking enrolment rhythm
- Monthlyrecurring billing model
- 1–3× / weekcore reserved schedules
- R350+final rate secured through tutor placement
Build your plan
Choose the learning rhythm first. Price comes after tutor capacity.
When Brilliant assigns a learner a weekly tutor slot, that capacity is no longer available to another family. Regular tutoring is therefore structured as an enrolment relationship — not a walk-in lesson product.
Why this mattersWhy reserved capacity?
Maths support works better when there is still a slot next week.
PAYG tutoring makes every lesson a new scheduling decision. A recurring plan gives the learner a predictable rhythm and gives the tutor enough continuity to prepare, revisit previous work and notice patterns over time.
It also reflects the real economics of a tutor network: a reserved after-school slot cannot simultaneously be sold to another learner.
The tutor can build on earlier sessions instead of repeatedly re-diagnosing.
Earlier work can be retrieved and revisited while new schoolwork continues.
The learner's recurring slot is taken out of the available tutor pool.
Three regular rhythms
Choose how much weekly capacity the learner needs.
These plans define frequency and reserved capacity. They do not force every tutor onto one hourly rate.
Weekly Continuity
For steady support, maintenance and keeping school maths moving consistently.
- Planned term sessions
- 43 / year
- Illustrative annual range
- R15,050 – R27,950
- Illustrative monthly average
- R1,254 – R2,329
Accelerated Progress
For meaningful gaps, inconsistent results or a learner who needs more repetition and support.
- Planned term sessions
- 86 / year
- Illustrative annual range
- R30,100 – R55,900
- Illustrative monthly average
- R2,508 – R4,658
High-Support / Performance
For heavier catch-up, senior-school pressure or learners deliberately pushing toward stronger results.
- Planned term sessions
- 129 / year
- Illustrative annual range
- R45,150 – R83,850
- Illustrative monthly average
- R3,763 – R6,988
Illustrations use 43 public-school term weeks and the current R350–R650/hour working network range. Final rate and exact billing are confirmed after tutor placement and the enrolment agreement.
How the tutor market works
The learner creates demand. Suitable tutor capacity is the scarce supply.
Brilliant does not force every tutor to work at one network tariff. The learner requirement is taken to suitable tutors, and the rate needed to secure the placement depends on real supply: subject, level, location, travel, time, support intensity and the tutor's own threshold.
- 01Define the learner requirement
Grade, subject, support intensity, area, mode, times and weekly frequency.
- 02Identify suitable tutors
Only tutors who can actually service the requirement enter the placement pool.
- 03Bid the placement
The offered learner rate has to be sufficient to secure appropriate tutor capacity.
- 04Tutor accepts
A suitable tutor accepts the recurring placement at a confirmed rate.
- 05Family approves and reserves
The accepted rate becomes the basis of the recurring enrolment and monthly billing.
Stability by design
A 12-month tutoring relationship — paid monthly.
The commercial model is designed around a recurring school-year relationship rather than paying lesson by lesson. That gives the family a predictable plan, the tutor predictable capacity and Brilliant enough notice to replace a learner if a reserved slot is released.
Working MVP policy: 12-month enrolment, monthly billing and three months' cancellation notice. Final cancellation, rescheduling, missed-lesson, CPA and payment terms must be expressed in the lawyer-reviewed enrolment agreement before automated subscriptions go live.
The family knows the accepted hourly rate before enrolment.
The recurring slot is removed from tutor availability.
Later this can connect to recurring card or debit-order infrastructure.
Frequency can be reconsidered as the learner's needs change.
Keep the momentum through the break
Regular plans cover the school rhythm. Holiday Maths protects what was built.
School holidays are a separate intensive continuity product: one focused lesson per eligible holiday day, built around retrieval, gap repair, consolidation and next-term readiness.
Regular plan questions
The plan reserves a relationship, not a pile of coupons.
These are the important commercial distinctions to understand before the payment and contract backend is connected.
Can I book one lesson whenever I feel like it?
The regular model is intentionally not PAYG. It reserves recurring weekly tutor capacity so the learner has continuity and the tutor can plan around an ongoing relationship.
Why can two learners on the same plan pay different amounts?
The plan defines frequency. The tutor rate is established separately through the placement market and can vary with subject, level, location, travel, time, support intensity and available tutor supply.
Does the hourly rate change every week?
No. The bidding logic is used to secure the placement before enrolment. The accepted rate becomes the agreed basis of the recurring plan, subject to whatever future rate-change rules are stated in the enrolment agreement.
Why is there a cancellation notice period?
A recurring slot is reserved for one learner and removed from availability for others. If that learner exits, Brilliant may need time to place another learner into the released capacity. The exact enforceable notice and termination rules will be governed by the final agreement.
Are holidays included in these regular session counts?
No. The current regular-plan illustrations use school-term weeks only. Holiday Maths is a separate programme with its own daily continuity structure and tutor placement.
What happens when subscriptions are automated later?
The product model stays the same: learner, tutor, accepted rate, reserved schedule and monthly billing. A future payment adapter can then connect recurring card or debit-order collection without redefining the plan itself.
Build the rhythm before building the payment automation.
