If you need to reschedule your classes, we highly recommend to do so at least 24 hours before the next class. We understand that sometimes life throws a curveball at us, however multiple rescheduling without valid reasons might be deemed as no-show, with lesson(s) deducted.
For priavte lessons, one lesson is 50 minutes, so that our teachers can have a small break before their next lesson. If you would like to have longer lessons, please let us know. Our teachers may be able to accommodate that depending on their schedule.
