What happens during the trial lessons?

We provide two or three trial lessons for all new students, usually one per week for three consecutive weeks. It’s very important that your child gets on well with their tutor, and trial lessons are the best way of testing this.

The lessons will contain a mixture of assessment and teaching. It’s important to have two or three lessons so that your tutor can assess how well your child retains information between the lessons, and also how they get on with their homework/practice tasks. This isn’t possible with just a single trial lesson, which is why two is the minimum number of lessons you can book. Your tutor will provide feedback from the assessment when the trial period is complete, and share their recommendations for the most suitable frequency and length of lessons going forward.
