  • How to cancel my participation in a Duo Class?

Our Duo Class cancelation policy is a 3 days for any cancellation on Duo Classes.

Less than 3 working days notice ? We call this class canceled last minute:  there is no refund.​​

 

Please note that Duo Classes should be booked with the intention of participating in it, as it does not only engage the time of the teacher, but also the time of the other participant who is counting on having a potential partner for their Duo Class.

You can cancel and reschedule a booked Duo Class directly on our mobile app or from your member area on our website:

1. Make sure you are logged in, using the login bar on the top right corner of the page.

2. Click on the arrow to access the menu and select "My bookings".

You will see all the classes you have booked. Click on "cancel" to cancel your participation in the class of your choice.

You can also, as always, contact us directly.

Since having two participants is essential for the proper running of a Duo Class, when a client registers for a Duo Class it is with the intention to participate in it. Indeed, when a participant cancels last minute or doesn't come to class, it prevents the other participant to take advantage of the full format of the Duo Class.

It also prevents other students to benefit from it. 

Please book classes you know you can attend. 

 

  • Missed session

There will be no refund of any kind for a participant not attending a class they had registered in. 

Fais-le en français - Do it in French reserves the right to cancel any Duo Class booked by a student who would show excess repetitive no-show.  

If a client needs to cancel their participation in Duo Classes for several days in a row, in reaction to a dramatic personal event or a health problem, they need to contact us directly.

  • What if I am the only participant in the class?

If only one participant is available, we will adapt the 1.5h Duo class into a 1h of one-on-one training* for the present participant. Depending on the solo-participant's level of readiness for the exam, we will offer to turn the class into a mock exam (35-40 minutes) with detailed feedback for the rest of the hour.

*This does not apply to students who are engaged into a Full Time training, nor to our corporate students whose training is paid by their employer, as we know how important it is to honour our contract with their employers. 

Full Time students and Corporate students will keep 1.5h of one-on-one class except they express otherwise.

If you have any questions, please contact us directly.

Conversation workshops policy

  • Price and payment

Because becoming Francophone is a long term project, we're happy to offer our students a 12 weeks course of Conversation workshops.

 

12 weeks conversation workshops costs $420/12 weeks/participant. 

4 weeks prior to the beginning of a workshop, we open an early bird registration window where participants can register at a lower price. We will communicate on these early bird registration window through our newsletter (register below).

We need a minimum of 3 participants to open a Conversation workshop. If a conversation workshop doesn't have enough participants, we will discuss with the participants and come up with a solution: either canceling and refunding its cost, discussion joining other groups if levels allow, transforming the funds into another format of training.

 

  • Conditions

Clients must choose a conversation workshop that is appropriate to their level. 

-> Not sure of your level ? Book an initial chat -15 minutes with us! 

Participants we do not meet in an initial chat and who do not meet the level expected in the workshop will be offered to join the appropriate workshop for their level. If they choose to not join the suggested group, they will be removed from the group they joined, and reimbursed, but a fee of $100 will be applied.

 

  • How to book a session?

To book the conversation workshop online (website),

1. Click on "book online" and select the conversation workshop of your choice. 

2. Follow the instructions 

3. You're done! Welcome in!

  • Missed session

1. Missed session will not be reimbursed.

 

2. We understand that sometimes life can happen, vacations are needed, or work gets busy, which is why we allow a substitute system for one session per month of workshops: students can find someone to replace them for the one session in which they registered, but need to miss.  

This substitute needs to be around the same level to allow for the group cohesiveness (we recommend the substitute to take an initial chat -15 minutes- with us, if needed)

There is a maximum of 3 substitutions allowed per period of 12 weeks.

3. When a session happens during a Public Holiday (Thanksgiving, Christmas...), it will be discussed within the group for a session to catch it up. We will follow what the most participants want.  

4. If the teacher in charge of the workshop needs to cancel a session (sickness, emergencies), we will offer options to catch up the session. it will be discussed within the group. We will follow what the most participants want.  

4. We do not offer transfers of sessions towards another format of training for conversation workshops.
