Was I disruptive?
17/f
So this morning, I sent my tutor an email asking whether we were going to have a tutoring session tomorrow. He replied telling me to be on standby, because he needed to check to see whether he was busy, and he would get back to me later on today.
Well, I waited around, and it's nighttime now, and he didn't get back to me, and I need to know really badly whether or not I'm going to see him tomorrow so I can plan out my day accordingly.
At 8:57pm, I gave him a ring on his cell phone and left a message.
Was that an okay thing for me to do? Or was it excessive and disruptive?

It's O.K. to call and assertain your agenda as long as it's not during meal time so between 7.30 to 8.pm is a good polite time to call never call after 9.00pm unless it is an emergency some people go to bed early. Hope this helps

I think you were just being assertive. That's different from being agressive or excessively disruptive. Assertive means speaking up for what is rightly yours; advocating for yourself. In this case, you did exactly the right thing. He didn't call you when he said he would. He shirked his duty. It then became your responsibility to follow up and that's what you did. You certainly weren't bothering him. He should have held up his part of the bargain and he didn't.

That was definetley an okay thing to do! It was actually pretty rude of your tutor to put you off for so long, and still not get back to you.
