Is it a group class?

No. Every lesson is private and 1-on-1 with your child’s own tutor, so the pace and topics fit them exactly.

There’s no program fee and the 8-week plan is included. You pay the tutor’s normal lesson price, one lesson at a time or in packages of 10 and 20 that save 5% and 10%.

How long is each lesson?

Kids up to about 11 take 30-minute lessons, and toddlers always take 30 minutes. Teens from about 12 usually take 1-hour lessons.
