I charge yearly tuition. I let parents pay it weekly, every two weeks, monthly-whatever works for them. I need to make that yearly number in order to meet my overhead. When parents sign on, they understand that the ENTIRE tuition must be paid, regardless of attendance. They understand that I will take some time off, and they will as well, and that tuition does not change because of that.
Does your cable company charge you when you aren't watching TV? Does your mortgage company discount when you are out shopping, at work, or on vacation and not using your house? Same here-my clients agree to pay a set amount, and that is what I expect them to do. If this doesn't work for YOU, then why would you sign on with a provider who operates this way?
