✨ Class Expectations ✨
We want to do everything we can to make sure this is a positive learning experience for your learner. We message all newly enrolled learners with further details about the classes along with the expectations. All learners are encouraged to share any details they’d like their teacher to know about them beforehand. 

🔸Activities 
It’s highly recommended that learners have the activities prepared for each class. We believe learners will get more out of the classes by being prepared for them. We use a range of activities in each class to explore the objectives of the class and reinforce what is learnt. The activities are also one of the ways we can check learning is taking place in each class.  They are posted in the classroom by Monday each week. 

🔸 Class Times
Each class has a set start and end time. Classes will start on time and finish on time so please make sure your learner is in class and ready to go!

🔸 Mute/Unmute Function
We follow Outschool’s policy to use the mute/unmute function to make each class a better learning experience. 

🔸Annotate
We may sometimes use the Annotate function in Zoom too. It would be great if learners are aware of this. 

🔸Staying on camera
Please can you encourage your learner to stay on the camera during the class. It really helps me to both engage with them and also gauge how they are doing. We also want to make sure your learner is safe, especially if they take the class independently. 

🔸Technical Issues
Please test out Zoom before class and be sure your learner can use the mute/unmute function. We like to be fully present with my learners in class and as a result, I will not be able to respond to messages whilst teaching. For technical support, please contact Outschool.

🔸Refunds
Regarding refunds, we follow Outschool’s policy. A full refund within 24 hours of purchase or up to a week in advance of the class. Please ensure the time is AM or PM when signing up.

🔸Transfer requests 
Transfers will be actioned up to 24 hours before each class. For refunds, please contact Outschool Support. 

🔸Class Cancellations  
If a class has not met the minimum number of enrolments, it is subject to being canceled. We will send a message asking if you'd like a transfer to another date & time or full refund if the class is canceled.
 
🔹Please don’t hesitate to send us a message if you have any questions.  

✨We're looking forward to meeting you and being part of your learning journey!✨
