The Process

How Brain Boost Works

For clients and instructors — everything you need to know about booking, payments, and safety.

For Clients

Finding and booking an instructor on Brain Boost is simple, secure, and takes just a few minutes.

1

Search & Browse

Filter by category (Tutoring, Music, Sports, Dance), location, price, and availability. Read verified reviews from real clients.

2

Request a Booking

Select your service, date, time, and format (online or in-person). Add any notes for the instructor. Your card is authorized — but not charged yet.

3

Instructor Confirms

The instructor has 24 hours to accept, decline, or propose a new time. Payment is only captured when they accept. If declined, your card is never charged.

4

Have Your Session

Attend your session online (via Zoom) or in-person. Afterward, leave an honest review to help other families.

For Instructors

Brain Boost makes it easy to grow your instruction business, fill your calendar, and get paid securely.

Payment Security

Brain Boost uses Stripe for all payments. When a client requests a booking, their card is authorized (a hold is placed) but not charged. The payment is only captured when you accept. If you decline, the authorization disappears — the client's card is never charged.

Payouts go directly to your bank account via Stripe Connect Express. We never hold your money longer than necessary.
