Just tell her that you know how to handle the basics so that you can study by yourself.

Tell her that you no longer want or need her services. Its your money and you should not fell that you must keep attending.

Do you go to your tutor? If that's so, don't go to her. Get your mobile phone shut down for few weeks will solve all the problems. Tutors are used to that. By that time, tutor will know that you would like to discontinue.

As a tutor myself, I'd like to point out that it's important you tell your tutor that you no longer require her services. Tutors have lives too, as hard as that is to imagine and they should know that you're no longer coming so that they can give your time slot to somebody else.

Just tell her politely that you're busy at the moment and you want to take a break for some time. She won't kill you.

Then, say to your tutor that you wish to take a break for English for a moment. I think that's the best excuse you can make. Once your break goes for a month, she will stop calling you or caring about tutoring you.

Just harden up. You're paying her, she doesn't really like or care about you, you don't have to be nice to her.

 

[dehaitest]

If it's not money problems and you're fine with her fees, tell her that her teaching style does not suit you. Tell her what you want - you're paying for it, and you should be satisfied. Ask her if she could treat/teach you differently to her other students. If she can't, politely say that you need to be taught in some way and thus the need for another tutor.

• stop attending lessons
• tell her that your parents said that they don't want you to go tutoring anymore

Remember to do it with confidence cos after all it is YOUR money and good luck =D

 

[Electioneering]

Just stop going. Or, if she comes to you, don't answer the door.

Or else, "Thank you for tutoring me, but I will not be requiring your services anymore. Also, could you please leave with me the contact details of any other English tutors you know of whose styles of teaching differ from yours? Thanks!"

That's the worst thing that I would possibly say!

I am being quite serious here. I would never say such a thing!

 

[mrz ronaldo]

best thing to do is to tell her that you have no up coming assessements and that you do not require her services at this point in time and that when you do you will contact her but by then she would of just forgot....problem solved

If your tutor is as demanding and strict as my previous math tutor, I advise you not to lie. Trust me I tried and she picked me out in one second.

Me: This is my last lesson here.
Her: WHY?!
Me: Um...because I live too far
Her: Well that's a pathetic excuse ain't it?

Are you serious? I never expected tutor to go that far! I mean, I wouldn't even say that even if I was the tutor and knew you were lying!

Yep dead serious. She's really evil and scary. If you don't do your homework each week she yells at you. She yells even louder when you do bad in her exams.

EDIT: Holy crap! What if she visits BOS? I hope she doesn't read this post.

 

[wongsym]

LOL I don't want to lie to her either
maybe I'll just tell her the truth
hmm thanks guys for all the advice =)

That's pretty rude

 

[lyounamu]

That's pretty rude

I was being ironic. That is something that she shouldn't do.

 

[Aerath]

What's wrong with the 'live too far' excuse?
