General Liability
Bought by 95% of business owners like you
General liability insurance covers a wide range of tutoring accidents and basic risks. You’ll have financial protection if someone gets hurt during a teaching session or you are held responsible for damaging property that doesn’t belong to you. It’s often required by schools and educational programs.
general liability can help you pay for:
Medical payments
Property damage
Legal fees and judgments
Professional Liability (E&O)
Bought by 80% of business owners like you
Professional liability insurance (also known as errors and omissions or professional indemnity insurance) for private tutors helps you defend yourself if you’re accused of making a mistake that causes someone to lose money. For example, your client could attempt to sue if one of your students fails to pass an entrance exam that was the focus of your lessons. Professional liability could help cover related expenses to defend yourself.
professional liability can help you pay for:
Professional negligence (actual or alleged)
Legal defense costs
Legal judgments
Commercial Auto
For business owners who own or drive vehicles
Most states require commercial auto insurance for business-owned vehicles to help pay for medical expenses and property damage. Personal auto insurance usually won’t provide coverage for injuries or property damage if you get in an accident while driving for work.
commercial auto can help you pay for:
Medical expenses
Collision repairs
Rental reimbursement
Workers' Compensation
Coverage for workplace injuries
Workers’ compensation insurance can help pay for medical care and lost wages after a workplace injury. It’s almost always required if you have employees. Choose business owner’s coverage with your policy to protect yourself.

Medical expenses
Lost wages
Employer liability
Commercial Property
For business owners who own or rent physical spaces
Commercial property insurance can help protect your business equipment, inventory and even the building itself if you own it. If your business property is damaged due to a covered event, such as a burst water pipe or fire, property insurance can help with replacement costs or repairs.
