The cover-up session may happen in another ongoing batch where the missed topic is being taught. We do not commit the same teacher/time/days for the cover-up class (the same will be on mutual agreement). The particular class recordings will be shared on special request from parents to the student if the student missed the class and missing the cover-up class will be counted as missed class and cannot be rescheduled again.
We expect the student to attend all the sessions to maintain the momentum of learning, unless very urgent and unavoidable — please do not miss the sessions.
Cancellation of classes
In case of one-on-one classes or batch classes, if due to unavoidable situations, parents want us to cancel a specific session, in that case, they are responsible for communicating the same with us at least two hours (2 hours) in prior to the class timing. Only that prior communicated canceled class will be able to give the cover-up classes based on their allowed count or video recording will be sent on special request by the parent.
Missing of classes
The teacher will always join before the class time and assure to add value to your time. We expect the student also to join every class on time. The teacher will wait for 15 minutes in the class meeting and end the meeting if the student did not join at first 15 minutes. The student joining later that time will miss the class and cannot be asked for reschedule.
Long Breaks / Vacations
If students are going on vacation or long breaks in between the course has to be communicated in writing before taking a break. The number of classes missed during the vacation break will be compensated with bridging classes. We do not commit the same teacher/batch/time/days after the break or for bridge classes. However, options of multiple batches will be shared to suit your convenience.
