Arrange the first lesson

Arrange the first lesson

Arrange the date and time for a lesson and your teacher will take care of the booking, which will show in your account. The first lesson is the perfect place to get to know your teacher and make a plan for your learning.

Pre-pay for lessons

Depending on how your teacher likes to work, you can expect to receive a lesson offer to arrange the tuition directly via a private link, or a recommendation to purchase a block of lessons. Both options require lessons to be paid for in advance. You can read more about the different options here.
