Instagram posts for tutors: what to post and when
A tutor posts mostly ahead of the dates that matter: exams, the end of term and entrance exams. Here are ideas for the week, the best times to post for education according to two public studies and the Feedmakers features that make each post.
What to post
- The subjects and levels you teach
- Open slots before exams
- A trick for solving one type of problem
- Online or in person: how each one works
- How to plan the study week before an exam
- Entrance exam prep
- What your students or their families say
- Prices per lesson or per package
When to post

Frequently asked questions
Can I put a formula or a problem in the image?
You can type it yourself and it goes inside the image, but an image model can get symbols and numbers wrong. Check it carefully before you post, or keep it in the caption.
Can I prepare several posts at once?
Yes. Save the ideas in Drafts, check the text of each one and generate several at once, with the cost shown before you confirm.
Does it write the caption too?
Yes. Every post comes with a hook, a caption, a call to action and hashtags, in English, Spanish or both.
How much does each post cost?
1 credit per image on Fast, 3 on Standard and 6 on High, and credits are only charged when the image comes out right. The caption doesn't spend credits.
