By accessing or using our Site, you acknowledge that you have read, understood, and agree to be bound by these Terms. Please review these Terms carefully and keep a copy for your records.

Russian Math Tutors is a teaching platform connecting teachers and students for Russian Math and foreign language instruction. Teachers set their rates and schedules, while students pay for classes through the Site and select their preferred instructors. Teachers receive payment monthly upon class completion.

We reserve the right to modify these Terms at any time in our sole discretion. The latest version will supersede all previous versions. We encourage you to review these Terms periodically to stay informed of updates. Your continued use of the Site after any changes constitutes acceptance of the modified Terms.
