Lesson schedule and school policies

Our approach to learning and lesson scheduling

Dear Parents,

Lessons focus on understanding principles, connecting ideas, and applying learning to new problems. With clear learning goals and a well-structured approach, students can plan their studies and continue learning independently.

Booking lessons

Family Plan

One lesson each week at a fixed time. Rescheduling is available with a separate $50 Rescheduling Fee.

Extra lessons

Additional lessons outside the regular schedule can be booked at an available time when needed. Payment is due at booking. Once paid, the schedule is fixed and cannot be changed.

Non-recurring lessons

Choose available lesson times without a fixed weekly schedule. An initial Registration Fee applies, along with a $100 Schedule Fee per booking, separate from tuition. If you book multiple lessons together and select all dates and times at once, the $100 Schedule Fee is charged only once for that booking. A separate booking made later carries a new $100 Schedule Fee. Once confirmed, all lesson dates and times are final and cannot be rescheduled at the request of the parent or student. A stable schedule allows us to prepare lessons and manage the time reserved for every student.

The Registration Fee covers the initial preparation of the digital learning space and lesson resources.

When a Family Plan student cannot attend a lesson, study content and practice materials aligned with school progress are still provided to support independent learning.

Teaching, for years to come

I have been teaching since 2001. I enjoy this work and hope to continue for many years. Thank you for helping me keep lessons running consistently by honoring our scheduling arrangements.

With thanks,
