In a month, you will get about 10 tutoring sessions (in a group). Each session is 1.5 hrs long.
NOTE: Your questions should be submitted by Monday midnight, of the corresponding tutoring week.
Q. Will this be recorded?
Yes, in case you can’t come to the class, or you want to rewatch the session. The recording will eventually be replaced by the newest sessions, to allow more space for discussions.
Q. What will happen during the session?
30 mins are dedicated to a topic that is extremely important to know. For example, the furcation classifications, etc. Or it can be new updates that may affect you. The other 1 hour is dedicated to answering the question posted by students.
Q. How much is it?
The sessions are $69/month. It’s less than $4 per hour! Our group sessions are extremely helpful because you get to watch also other questions.
Q. What if I want to stop the program?
No problem, you can cancel the program anytime. This is a monthly commitment, so you can opt-in and out easily. For example, if you join on Jan 5th, and you wanted to take some time off during your finals in May, you can choose to not renew your program. Then, you can join again.
Q. Can I join anytime?
Yes, you can! However, we have a limited number of seats available. This is to provide personalized support. However, there are only limited spots available, so if you want to join again, we can’t promise that there will be a seat, sorry!
