The Tutor's Dilemma: Full Schedule, New Students – What to Do?

Tutors Face Scheduling Dilemmas: A Look at Strategies for Managing Client Demand Brest, Belarus – Tutors in Belarus, like many professionals, face the challenge of balancing client demand with their available time. A recent video by primary school teacher and tutor Anastasia Fedorovich highlights this common issue. The video, uploaded on June 2nd, 2025, poses the question: what to do when your schedule is full, but new students want to enroll? Fedorovich shares her approach, explaining that sometimes she offers a higher price for additional students, a strategy known as 'overpricing'. Other times, however, she is forced to decline new clients due to time constraints. "I've encountered situations where my schedule is completely full, but more people want lessons," Fedorovich explains in the video. "In some cases, I offer a higher rate; in others, I have to refuse." This dilemma is one that many tutors experience. The video serves as a relatable example of the challenges of balancing professional demands and maintaining a sustainable workload. The key takeaway is the need for effective client management strategies to ensure both professional success and personal well-being.
