TuitionCRM vs Teachworks
Teachworks is tutoring-business software used by tutoring centres and schools worldwide. Here's how it compares with TuitionCRM for a tutor or centre in Singapore, based on Teachworks' own website.
The short answer
Teachworks suits larger, multi-branch tutoring businesses that want online accounts for parents, students and teachers, and card payments through Stripe.

Common questions
Does Teachworks charge per lesson?
Its pricing page lists a monthly fee plus a fee per student-lesson on each plan (checked 15 Oct 2026). TuitionCRM has flat monthly or yearly pricing with no per-lesson or per-student fees.
Does Teachworks support PayNow?
We couldn't find PayNow on Teachworks' website; it names Stripe for online payments. TuitionCRM puts your PayNow QR on every invoice.
