Priority Hours are popular and can fill up quickly, so it’s normal to have weeks with only a few available, or none at all. How many you see depends on a few factors, such as student demand, tutor availability, and your rating and reliability.
The good news is, you can still tutor on Cambly without Priority Hours. Here's how:
Set your availability for reservations
You don’t need Priority Hours to receive reservation requests. When you add availability to your schedule, students can see those times on your profile and book lessons with you directly.

Create a weekly template
If you like to work the same hours each week, a weekly template saves you from setting your availability again every week. Set your preferred hours once, and you can click a button to paste them into each week.

Tips for getting more reservations
- Keep your schedule open consistently. Students looking for regular lessons are more likely to book tutors whose availability is predictable.
Share your schedule link with students. Send your link to students you’ve taught so they know when you’re available and can book with you directly.
- Check back for Priority Hours. New Priority Hours may open up throughout the week, so it’s worth checking your Priority Hour tab regularly.
- Keep your profile up to date. A clear profile and introduction video help students decide to book with you.
