5. Scheduling and Cancellation
Scheduling conditions

Students are responsible to check their scheduled classes in the online scheduling system. We are not responsible for incorrectly booked times or dates. Scheduled times in the online scheduling system are shown in your local time zone. A reminder of the lesson appointment will be delivered either by email or SMS approximately beforehand.

Class cancellation

All cancellations need at least 30 minutes notice. You will need to log into the “Customer Panel” to cancel and reschedule your class though the scheduling system. Cancellation requests by email, phone, messaging services or SNS will not be accepted.

Late cancellation penalties for students and teachers

If you cancel with LESS than 30 minutes notice, you will forfeit the lesson fee. If a teacher cancels with less than 30 minutes notice, you will receive a FREE class, in addition to the rescheduled class.

Late arrival

If either you or your teacher do not attend the lesson at the scheduled time OR either you or your teacher is more than 15 minutes late for a scheduled lesson, the lesson will be deemed to have been cancelled and the above-mentioned late cancellation penalties shall apply.

Technical issues

If you or your teacher have hardware, software, internet connection or power supply problems, we will do our best to arrange an alternative method of conducting the scheduled lesson. However, if it is impossible to conduct the lesson due to any of these issues, we will reschedule the lesson without late cancellation penalties applying.

Natural disasters and other calamities

If a typhoon, blizzard, flood, earthquake, or some other natural disaster strikes at the last moment and prevents either party from connecting for the lesson, the lesson can be rescheduled without late cancellation penalties applying to either teacher or student.

Man-made emergencies

If an act of terror, sudden industrial dispute, or some other interruptive man- made public event prevents either party from connecting for the lesson, the lesson can be rescheduled without late cancellation penalties applying.
