Question 1

How does online tutoring work?

Accepted Answer

You can select a suitable coach via the website. Here (javascript:void(0))you will find an overview of all coaches. After you have selected and booked an appointment directly via the website, you will receive a zoom link in a confirmation email.
Ten minutes before the lesson starts, click on the zoom link and you will be taken to the online classroom. Your coach will also join shortly. Learn here (javascript:void(0))what exactly Zoom is.

Question 2

How does the subscription system work?

Accepted Answer

The coaches determine the price per 55-minute lesson themselves. Each coach has the option of buying 6-session subscriptions at a volume discount of 7% and 12-session subscriptions at a volume discount of 12%.

You pay 10 CHF per lesson as placement fee to WebLearning here directly on the website.
At the end of the month the booked coach will issue you an invoice by e-mail. All your lessons for a month are listed on the invoice.
If you buy a 6-session subscription, you have a contingent of six lessons. So you can book a lesson six times with the selected coach - without having to pay again each time. After each booking of an appointment, the system automatically debits a lesson. After the subscription has been used up, you have to choose a price plan again (single lesson, 6-session subscription, 12-session subscription).

Question 6

What technology do I need for the online tutoring lesson?

Accepted Answer

The prerequisite for an optimal online tutoring lesson is a stable internet connection. 
The tutoring lessons can take place on the computer, laptop, tablet or smartphone. 
However, we recommend that you do the online tutoring lesson on your computer, laptop or tablet and not on your smartphone. The screen there is often too small and you may not see what is written.
We also recommend that you download Zoom  (https://zoom.us/download)for your device. So you can join the online tutoring lesson quickly and easily. You can find out exactly what Zoom is here.(javascript:void(0))

Question 8

How many tutoring lessons should I book?

Accepted Answer

At the beginning we recommend booking a single lesson to see if it harmonizes with your tutor. If it suits you and you would like to book online tutoring lessons over a longer period of time, we recommend that you buy a subscription plan so that we can accompany you for longer. This is how you save from a volume discount.
You save 7 percent with a 6-pack subscription.
With a 12 subscription you save 12 percent.

Question 9

How does the tutor see what I write?

Accepted Answer

On the one hand, you have the option of uploading photos of your materials directly here (javascript:void(0))to your tutor's folder on the website. 
On the other hand, you can quickly send files via Zoom (javascript:void(0))during the lesson. 
Of course you can also join the online tutoring lesson via touch laptop or tablet - then you can write directly on the digital paper. Your tutor can then see everything you write using the split-screen function.
Be creative. There is also the option to join the Zoom meeting with your computer and at the same time with your smartphone. You then use the computer as a screen - so you can see everything your tutor is doing there. 
You position the smartphone that is in the same zoom meeting so that your materials (worksheets, etc.) are filmed. This is how your tutor sees what you write.

What is Zoom?

Accepted Answer

Zoom i(https://zoom.us/)s an online service (a kind of video chat) that is ideal for online tutoring lessons.
Zoom has proven itself especially in schools during the Corona period, as it is easy to use and does not require registration. 
We recommend downloading Zoom here (https://zoom.us/download)before your first tutoring lesson.
