Tutor time tracking software that counts every minute for you
How many hours did you actually teach Emma this month? If answering that means scrolling back through a calendar and counting lessons on your fingers, your time tracking is costing you money. TeamLilit records the time each student spends in every session, automatically.

Who this is for
- Tutors billing by the hour who need exact numbers, not estimates
- Tutors selling lesson packages who need to know how much has been used
- Tutors whose parents ask "how much time did you spend with my child?"
- Tutoring centres that need clean per-student time records across tutors
Time tracking built for tutoring, not timesheets
Generic time trackers were built for freelancers: start a timer, stop it, categorise the entry, repeat. Forget once and your records are fiction.
Tutoring time has more structure than that. It's always a lesson, with a student, for a duration. TeamLilit uses that structure: time is captured inside the live classroom, per student, per session. No timers, no timesheets, no end-of-week reconstruction.
Track tutoring hours per student, automatically
When a student joins a session, the clock starts for them. When they leave, it stops. That duration is saved on the session together with attendance, and every lesson in a student's profile shows the time they actually spent in class.
So when you need to answer "how much time has this student had?", you open their profile and read it off, session by session, instead of reconstructing it from memory.
Time tracking for group lessons
Group classes are where manual time tracking truly breaks down: eight students, two late arrivals, one early leaver, and one number in your notebook for all of them.
TeamLilit tracks time for each student in a group session individually. The student who joined 20 minutes late has a different recorded time than the one who stayed the full lesson, which is exactly what fair billing and honest parent reports need.
From tracked time to invoice
Tracked time is only useful if it turns into revenue. When you bill by the hour, the student's profile gives you the period's sessions and durations, ready to put on the invoice. Our free tutor invoice maker turns that list into a professional PDF, and our guide to invoicing tutoring students covers the rest: numbering, payment terms, and chasing late payers politely.
For package students, the same record answers "how many lessons are left?" before a parent asks.
Time, attendance, and your timetable in one place
Time tracking isn't a separate app to maintain. It's the same system that runs your tutoring schedule, records attendance, and keeps student records. Every scheduled session produces its own time and attendance data the moment it ends, with nothing to sync and nothing to export between tools.

Frequently asked questions
How do tutors track their tutoring hours?
Most tutors reconstruct hours from a calendar or a notebook at the end of the month. Time tracking software removes that step: each session records its duration automatically, and the time each student spent in class is saved on their profile. When it's time to bill, the record is already there.
Does TeamLilit track time per student?
Yes. The time each student spends in a session is recorded automatically, alongside attendance. Every student's profile shows their sessions with the time spent in each one, across 1:1 lessons and group classes.
Do I need to start and stop a timer?
No. Time is captured from the live classroom: when a student joins a session, the clock starts for them, and when they leave, it stops. There's nothing to remember and nothing to fill in afterwards.
Can I track time for group lessons?
Yes. In a group session, time is tracked for each student individually. If one student joins 20 minutes late, their record shows it, while the rest of the class keeps their full duration.
Can I use tracked time for invoicing?
Yes. Per-session time per student is exactly what hourly billing needs: open the student's profile, read off the sessions and durations for the period, and put them on the invoice. Our free invoice maker turns that list into a professional PDF in minutes.
What's the difference between attendance tracking and time tracking?
Attendance tracking tells you who was present; time tracking tells you for how long. TeamLilit records both together: each session shows who joined, when they joined and left, and the resulting time in class for every student.
Stop counting hours by hand
Your time records should build themselves while you teach. Set up your TeamLilit workspace and every session from now on tracks its own time. See pricing for plan details.
