Parent reviews
“Week to week it sometimes felt slow, but looking back, it was clearly a time of big growth. … When we first started with the teacher, my child seemed so young, and now they're really growing up. As a family living in another language, I can't tell you how relieved I am that my child can start school better prepared and more confident.”
Translated from Korean
1:1 private classes available
Every class can also be taken as a private 1:1 class instead of a group class, with the schedule and pace set for your child.
How classes work
- Student page
- After enrolling, you'll get a link to your child's student page. Join class, find class materials, and watch past class recordings — all in one place. Bookmark it on your child's device.
- Homework
- Each class's teacher shares homework and feedback.
- Absences and make-ups
- Missed classes still count toward your enrolled classes. For group classes, your child can catch up with the recording. If something comes up, please let the teacher know in advance — the teacher may not count the class or may schedule a make-up.
- Refunds
- See section 5 (Refunds) of our Terms of Service.
