How do I start?
Start with a free fifteen-minute intro call, followed by a starting assessment lesson. After that, lessons run in the same weekly slot, with notes in the portal after every session.
Do parents or adult learners get to see progress?
Yes. Parents and adult learners have a portal account with upcoming bookings, notes after each lesson, shared resources and a termly progress summary on package plans.
