Lesson & Payment Log
The simplest way to stop losing track of who's paid. Log each lesson — the date, the student, what you taught, whether they came, the fee, and whether it's paid — and this free single-tab log totals your collected and unpaid tuition, so you always know what's still to chase. Download it, fill it in, and never wonder who owes you again.
Take it with you — free, no signup
Direct download. No email, no account — just the files.
What it does
- Logs one row per lesson: date, student, what you taught, attended, fee, and whether it's paid.
- Totals your collected and unpaid tuition automatically, so the unpaid number becomes your to-do list.
- Color-codes unpaid rows red with a dropdown, so overdue payments are easy to spot at a glance.
- Comes pre-loaded with a small fictional studio so you can see it working, then overwrite it with your own.
- Opens in Excel, Google Sheets, and LibreOffice — no macros, no signup, nothing saved anywhere but your own file.
Own it, don't rent it
Want the whole studio, not just the log?
This free log tracks lessons and payments. The full Private-Lesson & Tutor Studio Manager adds the rest — a live roster that tracks makeup credits and package balances per student, a lesson rate calculator, a term and recital planner, and a dashboard that rolls it all up, in one owned workbook (Excel, Google Sheets, or LibreOffice).
A one-time purchase you keep and reuse across your whole studio — the structured workbook between a blank spreadsheet and a rented monthly lesson app.
A record-keeping template, not licensed tax, accounting, or legal advice. The example students are fictional and illustrative. Free to use; please don't resell or redistribute.
