Frequently Asked Questions:
Can I have a Free Trial Lesson?
Our teachers are all highly experienced teachers AND you will learn something in the trial lessons with us. Our trial lesson is more that just a lesson to meet your teacher. It is a lesson to do an activity and to see if you like the way they teach. You will always learn something in our trial lessons.
In the trial lesson, after we spend 5 minutes talking about what you want to improve, the teacher will choose a small activity (10-15 minutes) to show you how we can help you.
Although this lesson is a ‘trial’, our goal is to teach you something new in the lesson and for you to leave the lesson feeling like you finally found the right person to help you with your Engish journey.
How do I join the lesson?
We use a video calling platform like Zoom, Skype or Google Meet. Before the lesson time, we will contact you with the information you need to join the lesson.
