Welcome to English With Damien. These Terms of Service govern your use of my website and tutoring services. By accessing my website or booking lessons, you agree to comply with and be bound by these terms.

Tutoring Services

I offer private English tutoring services for children, teenagers, and adults, both online and in-person in Yavne, Israel. My services include but are not limited to conversation practice, grammar instruction, pronunciation coaching, and preparation for English exams.

Booking and Scheduling

Lessons can be booked through the contact form on my website, via WhatsApp, or other agreed communication channels. Lesson times are subject to my availability and will be confirmed upon booking.

Payments

  • Payment methods and details will be provided upon booking confirmation.
  • For regular lessons, payment is expected before or at the time of each lesson, unless otherwise agreed.
  • For lesson packages, full payment is required in advance to secure the discounted rate.
  • Prices are subject to change, but any changes will not affect already booked and paid lessons.

Cancellation Policy

  • If you need to cancel or reschedule a lesson, please provide at least 24 hours' notice.
  • Lessons cancelled with less than 24 hours' notice may be charged at the full rate, at my discretion.
  • If I need to cancel a lesson, I will offer a rescheduled time or a full refund for that lesson.
  • No-shows (failure to attend without notice) will be charged at the full lesson rate.

Introductory Assessment Sessions

I offer a 30-minute introductory assessment session for ₪50 to new students. This is subject to availability and is limited to one introductory session per student. The introductory session allows us both to assess if my teaching style matches your learning needs.
