All you need to know before you schedule a lesson
I find WhatsApp works very well for 1 to 1 teaching. It has no time limit and is simple to use.
- I begin the call at our arranged time.
Zoom works well for students who prefer to be able to add text, read worksheets, or are studying in another course - but is limited to 40 minutes.
- I send link ahead of our arranged time.
In your workplace - if you send a link I can access your preferred system such as in-house MS Teams.
Asynchronous
We communicate via email - best for editing and writing help.
If you are in Europe, expect overnight service.
