Frequently Asked Questions

Q: What days are you free to coach?
A: In-person or remote: Thursday-Friday 10am to 9pm.

Q: How often are the sessions?
A: Once a week is ideal. You’ll be able to progress at a steady pace, and have time between sessions to practice and do “homework.”

Q: How long is each session?
A: I recommend sessions of 1hr or 1.5hrs.

Q: How do I make payments?
A: I accept checks, cash, PayPal, and bank transfers. You will receive an invoice and a receipt. Payments cannot be made via CPF.

Q: Is it possible to pay in installments?
A: Payments may be divided into two installments.

Q: What is your cancellation policy?
A: You may cancel or reschedule a session if you give 24 hours’ advance notice. Otherwise, the session is not reimbursed.

Q: Do you coach beginners or advanced students?
A: I have experience with teaching and coaching all levels, from complete beginners to highly advanced students. However, I think complete beginners would benefit more from a group/classroom format of learning.

Q: Do you speak in French or Japanese while coaching?
A: A big part of my coaching philosophy is language immersion, so I normally only speak English while coaching. However, I may use short explanations in French or Japanese when absolutely necessary, to aid understanding…but this is rare! Even if you’re a beginner, this immersion technique can work well for you, so fear not! :-)

Q: Do you teach English to children?
A: At the moment, I provide coaching services to adults and university students.
