How fees work

This page explains how billing works, so you know what you are dealing with. For actual figures and available times, just ask by email.

Billed by session, no packages

There is no "buy 20 sessions up front" bundle. Fees depend on three things: format (one-on-one, one-on-two, or online), session length (60 or 90 minutes), and how many sessions per week.

The assessment is charged as one session

The one-hour assessment every new student takes is charged at the hourly rate. You leave with a full picture of where your child stands — and that assessment is yours to keep, whether or not you continue.

One-on-two is quoted separately

One-on-two is not two people splitting one lesson — the children work on different material, each with their own plan and their own explanations. The fee is therefore worked out separately, and is not necessarily lower than one-on-one. How it is calculated is set out after the assessment.

Fixed schedule, billed monthly

A fixed weekly slot, billed monthly. Cancellation and rescheduling rules are put in writing before the first session, so there is nothing to argue about later.

Ask about fees and scheduling by email

Write with your child’s grade, where things stand, and the times that work for you, and you will get the available slots and the fees together in one reply. The quote given after the assessment is firm and does not change afterwards.

Start with an assessment, then decide

Every new student begins with a one-hour thinking and skills assessment. Afterwards you get a written picture of where the gap actually is, what pace your child needs, and how sessions should be scheduled. You decide from there — and if I am not the right fit, I will say so.

Sessions and communication in English, Mandarin, or Cantonese.
