How it works
How it works
From your first message to regular classes, this is what happens. The aptitude test, the counselling session and the demo class are free.
Step by step
From enquiry to enrolment
01Parent enquiry
Fill the form on the contact page or message us on WhatsApp. We reply within one working day and arrange the aptitude test and the counselling session.
02Aptitude test
Your child completes a short aptitude test. It can be done before the counselling session or in the first 20 minutes of the session.
0345 minute counselling session
You and your child attend a counselling session. In the first 20 minutes, you speak with the counsellor while your child completes the aptitude test, if it is not already done.
04Understanding the child's needs
The counsellor asks what you expect, what your child needs in their studies, and what kind of support would help.
05Learning recommendation
Based on the test and the session, we recommend a class format: one to one, a small group of up to 4, special attention, or foundation support. We also suggest a plan of 8, 12 or 20 classes a month.
0630 minute demo class
Your child attends a 30 minute demo class with the teacher before you enrol. Tell us how it went.
07Enrolment
You pay for the first month's classes by a payment link on WhatsApp, and regular classes begin.

What we need from you
At home
- A laptop or tablet with a working internet connection, camera and microphone.
- A quiet place for the class.
- The school textbook and a notebook.
From you
- Attend the counselling session with your child.
- Make sure your child joins every class on time.
- Send the homework as your child did it, without correcting it.
- Tell us if something changes at school or at home.
Should my child be one to one or in a group?
The counsellor recommends one after the counselling session. A group of up to 4 students gives your child company, and the teacher still checks every student's work. One to one suits a child who needs the teacher's full attention or a slower pace.
What is in the weekly update?
Every weekend you get five things: the attendance sheet, the classwork covered, the homework to complete, the learning material used in class, and a progress report on how your child is doing.
Who is the teacher?
A qualified, experienced teacher who has taught students of this age. We tell you who is teaching your child when your child joins. If it is not working, tell us and we will change the teacher.
What if we miss a class?
Group classes are not repeated. Your child gets the recording and the homework for that class. One to one students get one make up class a month.
What are the class timings?
Timings are fixed with you after the counselling session. Tell us your preferred time on the contact page. Classes are outside school hours, and a homeschooling student can have classes in the day.
How are students grouped?
By what the aptitude test shows they can do, not only by the class they are in at school. A Class 6 student and a Class 7 student at the same level can be in the same group.
Are the classes planned for my child?
Yes. The aptitude test and the counselling session decide where your child starts and which format suits them. The teacher adjusts the plan as classes go on. If your child moves faster or slower than the group, we move them to a group that fits, or to one to one.
What does my child need at home?
A laptop or tablet with a working camera, microphone and internet connection. A notebook, a pencil, an eraser and a ruler, and the school textbook for the subject. Each class page and skill course page lists anything more.
Are classes recorded?
Yes. If your child misses a class, you get the recording and the homework. Recordings are shared only with the families of students in that group and are not published anywhere.
Can I sit with my child during the class?
Yes, in the first class, if it helps your child settle. For a child who needs special attention, you and the teacher agree what works. After that we ask you to let your child attend alone. You get a written update every weekend.
