Client age range
Our services are primarily aimed at adults. In the event we are contacted to provide Skype lessons to a child under the age of 16, we will firstly require a consultation with a parent or guardian, and if we agree to undertake language training with the child, we will require the parent/guardian’s written consent.
Training session times
Normal availability for session bookings is between the hours of 09:00 and 17:00 GMT.
Please be aware of time zone differences. We will take no responsibility for a calculation that results in a session that is incorrectly booked and is then missed or not available due to an incorrect time calculation.
We may offer session times outside of those advertised, but it is at the discretion of the trainer, and class-e trainers are not obliged to do so.
Equipment
Whilst we aim to provide a good quality sound and visual experience with Skype/on-line training, we cannot be held responsible for any technological problems that are beyond our control, and may result in audio/visual difficulties in conducting a session, or in the early termination of a session.
Technological problems may be caused by, but are not limited to: lack of Internet services due to disruption by weather, power or the service provider; malfunction of equipment including the trainer’s or client’s computer, camera, microphone or headset (where used); lack of the required internet speed for audio/visual communication.
We expect clients who book these sessions to possess or have access to equipment and Internet facilities which are compatible with and suitable for Skype/on-line communication.
Resources
We aim to provide access to appropriate resources for downloading or viewing and will try to provide the most suitable format for these to be available to you. If a particular resource requires specific software for downloading or viewing, and you do not possess the required software, we cannot take responsibility for lack of access, or any loss or damage in the event of attempted access.

Time validity for block booking
To ensure the best possible results, it is important to maintain a regular schedule of sessions, so that the language and skills in one session can be recycled or built upon in the next one. For this reason we recommend that you use your pre-paid sessions within a reasonable time limit, which may be agreed between Trainer and client. Normal validity: block of 10 sessions must be completed within 6 months of booking, 5 sessions within 3 months. After this time, any remaining sessions may become invalid, at our discretion, although we will always be willing to take into consideration any personal circumstances which prevent you from using them within the time limit.

If you cancel a session between 7 days and 24 hours before the date of the booked session, the session can be rescheduled for an alternative date, with no cancellation fee.
Less than 24 hours notice/same day cancellation of a booked session or "no show" will result in the loss of the session and no refund.
