Frequently Asked Questions

Could we use Zoom* instead of Teams?

The fact that chats remain overtime is greatly preferred. 

If you had strong feelings against Teams and pro Zoom (or similar), we can discuss it, as long as I don’t have to download software or pay any extra.

 

*Zoom, Google meet, Jitsi, and similar platforms. 

What times are you available for clases?

As a rule, between 9:00 and 18:00 (GMT), classes outside these hours may be considered exceptionally, but not guaranteed.

I work Monday to Thursday one week, and Tuesday to Friday the next.


Most of my lessons are fairly regular, so you can check my booking calendar here to get an idea of what's slots are up for grabs at the moment. 

How many classes should I take?

Your circumstances, your desires, and your needs are unique to you. So it is 100% up to you!


I think in terms of having some regularity, something between two classes a week and one every other week seems to yield tangible progress on average. However, I would say that learning a language requires a lot of practice, practice, practice, which I am always happy to provide after classes!

What happens if you give me homework and I don’t do it?

Nothing, basically.

 

If I give you something to do and you don’t do it, I might not even ask you about it! And if I consider it important to do it, we’ll do it in class together, I design the lessons to have as much practice going as possible anyway. 


It is good to stay as engaged in the language target as possible, yes, but learning has a big emotional element to it, and it’s important to not associate learning with feelings of guilt, fear, exhaustion, or boredom.
