What does a free consultation involve?

 

A free consultation is an opportunity for the student to meet the director, Laura, and have their learning needs assessed using our prior knowledge assessment documents. Students will also be shown how to use the platform and may discuss any concerns that they may have. Parents or guardians may also ask questions once the student has been assessed.  

​

Will students be able to learn in a small group?

 

Our small online group lessons have been very popular with students and parents. Our students progress is assessed each lesson by the teacher and any concerns are passed on to the parent or guardian. Students make good progress in the group lessons and enjoy the opportunity to interact with other students. 

​

Is everything online? 

 

Yes, everything is taught online and students are sent a meeting link via email before each lesson. 

​

Will students be given any homework?

​

There may be times when students are asked to complete homework to help them make more progress and understand the content in more depth. Teachers are supportive of those students who may find it challenging to complete extra work and will not force anyone to do it. The parent or guardian and student's wishes and circumstances are always a priority. 

​

If my child has some work they need help with, will they be allowed to do it?

 

Yes, students are always welcome to ask for support. It is preferable to ask in advance of the lesson so the teacher can be fully prepared. 

​

I have a complaint, who do I speak to? 

​

Complaints can be sent to Laura Harrison, the founder and director of Education Lifeguards at Laura@educationlifeguards.com.
