Tutor insurance in Connecticut — FAQ

Do tutors need insurance?+

Yes. The main policies tutors need are professional liability.

How much does tutor insurance cost?+

A typical tutor can expect to pay general liability runs $300–$650 per year, professional liability $350–$1000, and commercial auto $600–$1400 per vehicle. Total annual premiums for a small operation usually range from $1,500 to $8,000 depending on coverage choices, revenue, and number of employees.

What does general liability cover for a tutor?+

General liability covers third-party bodily injury and property damage — for example, if a customer is injured on site or you accidentally damage a client's property. It does not cover your own injuries or professional errors (those need workers' comp and professional liability).

Does my personal auto insurance cover my tutor business?+

No — personal auto policies typically exclude business use. If you drive a vehicle for work (transporting equipment, visiting clients, making deliveries), you need a commercial auto policy.
