Did you know?

Our data shows that when a tutor contacts the students after the trial, the student is significantly more likely to buy a subscription. What can you include in a course proposal?

  • The student's level. Your student may have done the placement test, but they are looking for a teacher who can validate, or challenge, the results, and give extra details, such as whether one skill may be more advanced than another. You are the expert!

  • The student's strengths and areas for improvement. Show your student that whilst the class might have felt fun and effortless, you were hard at work analysing their strengths and weaknesses. Point out what they are doing great, and what you can help them with.

  • Long term goals. Show your student that you really listened to them, and you have a good understanding of what they want to achieve, and that you're willing and able to adapt your teaching to help them with it.

  • Short term plan. Give your student a concrete idea of what they can expect to learn with you in the next three or four lessons, making sure they are relevant to their goals and interests. It's easier to commit when you know what you are buying!

  • Recommended lesson frequency. Recommend the frequency that is best for them to reach their goals, and don't worry about sounding "pushy" - they are looking for a tutor so they can be pushed!

  • Recommended out of class activities. Go the extra mile by giving your student personalised suggestions for things they can do to keep on practising and improving outside of class to reach their specific goals.

Here is an example!
