General Liability

Protection for the injuries, accidents and damage you cause

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)

Coverage against business mistakes and claims of negligence

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 negligence (actual or alleged)

Legal defense costs

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.

Medical expenses

Collision repairs

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.

For business owners who own or rent physical spaces

The type of vehicle you drive

Tutor insurance requirements

Tutors are almost always required to have insurance due to the risk of injuries to students or damage to their property. You might need insurance to:

Start working with students. Parents and schools might ask you to have active insurance needed for tutoring businesses — usually general liability or workers’ compensation.
Injuries on the job. Most states require workers’ compensation, even if you don’t have employees.
Drive for business purposes. Business-owned vehicles typically need commercial auto insurance.
Repair or replace property you own or rent. Protect your inventory, equipment and even the building that you lease or own.

Frequently asked questions about business insurance

Here are some of the most common questions we get about tutoring business insurance policies. If you don’t find the answers you need here, our licensed, U.S.-based insurance advisors are standing by to help via online chat or phone.

How does business insurance protect tutors?

Our affordable tutor insurance packages are designed to protect your business from a variety of risks and help you save money to grow your business. You can be protected from financial losses related to:

Damage to someone’s property

You accidentally spill your coffee on a student’s laptop. The general liability coverage in your insurance package could help pay for a repair or replacement.**

Accidents that hurt someone

A student cuts their leg on the sharp edge of desk. Your general tutor liability insurance coverage could also come into play here by helping to pay for medical costs and legal fees.

Professional mistakes

A client claims that you didn’t sufficiently prepare them for an important exam and caused them financial losses. Professional liability insurance helps you defend yourself if you’re accused of making a mistake that causes someone to lose money.

Workplace injuries

You develop carpal tunnel syndrome after long days working at your computer and need treatment. Workers’ compensation insurance with business owner’s coverage can help cover medical bills and lost wages. Workers’ comp is usually required by law if you have employees.

Injuries and damage involving your business vehicles

When backing out of a client’s driveway, you accidentally knock over their mailbox. Commercial auto insurance can help pay for the repairs. This tutor insurance coverage is also usually required by law for business-owned vehicles.

Damage to your own property

Thieves steal several computers from your tutoring facility. Commercial property insurance can help with replacement or repair costs if your owned or leased property is damaged due to a covered event, such as a burst water pipe, fire, tornado or vandalism.
