Terms and Conditions
1. General
By booking lessons with Charlotte Martin, you agree to the following terms and conditions. These terms are designed to ensure a professional, respectful, and efficient learning experience for both teacher and student.
2. Booking and Payment
- Lessons must be booked in advance and are subject to availability.
- Payment must be made before the lesson, unless otherwise agreed.
- Lessons are conducted via Zoom, or another agreed-upon platform.
3. Lesson Packages
- Validity: Lesson packages are valid for 6 months from the date of purchase. All lessons must be scheduled and completed within this period. Any unused lessons after 6 months will be forfeited and are non-refundable.
-
Cancellation of Packages: If you choose to cancel a lesson package before using all the lessons:
- Lessons already taken will be charged at the standard single-lesson rate.
- The remaining balance, after adjusting for lessons taken at the standard rate, will be refunded.
- Non-Cancellation After 6 Months: Packages cannot be cancelled or refunded after the 6-month validity period.
4. Cancellation and Rescheduling
-
Student Cancellations:
- If you need to cancel or reschedule a lesson, at least 24 hours' notice is required.
- Cancellations made with less than 24 hours’ notice will be charged in full.
- If you do not attend a scheduled lesson without prior notice, this will be considered a "no-show," and no refund or rescheduling will be offered.
-
Teacher Cancellations:
- In the rare case that I need to cancel or reschedule a lesson, I will provide as much notice as possible, and an alternative time will be offered. If rescheduling is not possible, a full refund for that lesson will be given.
5. Technical Issues
- Both parties are responsible for ensuring a stable internet connection and a functioning device.
- If technical issues arise on the student’s side, the lesson will not be rescheduled or refunded.
- If technical issues occur on the teacher’s side, extra time will be given – either at the end of that lesson if possible, or at a later date.
6. Respectful Behaviour
- Both student and teacher must communicate respectfully and professionally.
- Any inappropriate, offensive, or disruptive behaviour will result in the immediate termination of the lesson without refund.
- The teacher reserves the right to discontinue lessons (without refund) with a student who behaves inappropriately or disrespectfully.
7. Punctuality
- Students should join the lesson on time.
- If a student is late, the lesson will still end at the scheduled time, and no extra time will be provided.
8. Recording and Privacy
- Lessons may not be recorded, shared, or distributed without prior written consent from both parties.
- Personal information will be kept confidential and not shared with third parties.
