FAQ

Common questions about online lessons.

Do I need to install anything?

Nothing extra. Skype and Zoom both run in your browser or in the apps you may already have.

What if my internet is slow?

Both platforms degrade gracefully — your tutor will switch off video if needed. Lessons stay productive even on a mobile connection.

Can I record my lesson?

Yes, on Zoom. Just ask your tutor before recording starts.

How do I reschedule?

One click from your booking confirmation email, up to 12 hours before the lesson. No penalty.

Is there a free trial?
