Frequently Asked Questions

What software do you use for the calls?

I can use Zoom, Teams, WeChat, and WhatsApp.

I need to cancel my slot, will I get a refund?

Yes — just message me before your lesson is due to start and I'll cancel it and we can re-arrange for a better time. I can't give a refund if you miss a lesson without messaging me before the start time.

What level of English speaking do I need to have before the lesson?

I can work with English speakers of all levels. We can use translated chat to communicate in your own language and I will help build up your English speaking skills.
