# AI phone assistant for tutors Source: https://terminio.ai/en/branchen/tutoring/ai-phone-assistant AI phone assistant for tutoring: answers while you're teaching, asks subject and year, checks free slots and books the lesson. German number, 200 minutes included. Answers while you're explaining equations, asks subject and year and writes the lesson into your calendar. An AI phone assistant for tutors answers calls while you're teaching: it asks subject and year, checks free slots live and books straight into your calendar. At terminio.ai it is part of Pro Voice, with a German phone number and 200 call minutes, no setup fee, set up in about ten minutes. ## One call mid-lesson. And what comes of it. - Booked through the link or by phone: one tutoring calendar. Parents who book after dinner take your link: pick a subject, pick a tutor, pick a time, done, no account. Whoever would rather call gets the assistant. Both land in the same calendar in the same minute, with no double booking. - Package price on the phone. Payment up front on the block. If a mother asks what the block of ten lessons before the exams costs, the assistant tells her, or says it depends. You decide. Payment up front you set per service: on the block of ten through Stripe, nothing on the trial lesson. - Picks up while the phone stays silent next to the exercise book. Set a call forward, done. While you're teaching from two till eight, the assistant answers with your centre's name and your greeting. It asks which subject and which year, checks free slots live, books and summarises every call in the app. - Booked by phone, confirmed on WhatsApp. A lesson the assistant books runs like any other booking: WhatsApp confirmation straight away, a reminder before the lesson, from your number, in your words, to the parent's phone. Which book, which room: all in there, without you typing. - It knows when Ms Lindner is free. The assistant looks at every tutor's real calendar: subjects, hours, rooms, the duration of every service. A-level preparation only gets a slot where ninety minutes are free. If someone asks for Mr Aydin for English, it tries to book exactly him. - Every call in the app. On the watch too. After every call, a push message with summary, outcome and duration. Call-backs land in their own list, the mother who wants ringing after six included. Web app at the desk, app on iPhone and Android, smartwatch on the wrist: the same picture everywhere. ## Common questions **What happens if the phone rings while I'm teaching?** You don't pick up, and after the ring the AI phone assistant takes over. It answers with your centre's name and your greeting, asks which subject and which year, checks free slots and books the lesson. The summary is in the app afterwards. You read it once the pupil has left. **Does it understand that parents are calling for their child?** Yes. It asks which subject and which year it's about, just as you would on the phone. Name and mobile number it takes from the person calling. Confirmation and reminder then go to that number, so mostly to the mother or father. **Does it know the difference between a trial lesson and A-level preparation?** Yes. It knows your services with duration and price, exactly as you set them up. If someone asks for A-level preparation, it only offers times where ninety minutes are free. The trial lesson gets its forty-five minutes. It quotes prices if you allow that, or says it depends on the work. **What does it do with a request for a block of ten before the exams?** If you've set the block up as a service with a package price, it quotes it and books the first lesson into the calendar. If it shouldn't sell packages itself, it takes subject, year and the request and leaves you a call-back in the app, with a note to ring after six if that's what the mother asked for. **Do I have to change my number for the AI phone assistant?** No. You get a German phone number from terminio, and your existing number stays on the parent letter and on Google. You only set a call forward, for example for when nobody picks up. In the Pro Voice plan the number is included, plus 200 call minutes a month. **Does it pick up in the evening, when parents call?** Yes. The AI phone assistant for tutoring has no opening hours. Parents mostly call after dinner, when your centre is closed. You decide when it takes over: always, only when nobody picks up, or only outside opening hours. Then it knows you're closed and doesn't refer callers to you. **What does an AI phone assistant cost?** On the market, between roughly 30 € and several hundred euros a month, depending on whether billing is per minute, per call or a flat rate, and whether the phone number costs extra. At terminio.ai the AI phone assistant for tutors is included in Pro Voice: 129.99 € a month, German number and 200 call minutes included, every further minute 0.25 €. No setup fee, cancel monthly. **Is there a free AI phone assistant?** A permanently free one hardly exists, because the phone number and the call minutes cost the provider money. What does exist is a free start: at terminio.ai you begin on Free without payment details, with a booking page, a calendar and the app. The AI phone assistant for tutors comes with Pro Voice, with no setup fee and no minimum term, cancel monthly. **What can an AI phone assistant do?** It answers while you're teaching, greets callers with the name of your business and deals with the request: it asks subject and year, checks free slots in your calendar, books, moves and cancels. It knows how long a double lesson takes and only offers gaps that fit. Anything it shouldn't handle it forwards to you or takes down as a callback with name, number and reason. After every call there is a summary in the app. --- terminio.ai is online appointment booking for small businesses with WhatsApp reminders and an AI phone assistant, from €0 a month, hosted in the EU.
