Cost of Lessons Private lessons are the best way to learn, and private lessons cost $20 for one hour lesson. We can meet once a week, twice a week, or more often, depending on the amount of time you have available to devote to study. Less than once a week tends to be ineffective.
If you would like to study with a friend, you can share the cost of the lesson. This allows you to split the cost, but it will only work if you are both at the same level. If one of you has more fluency than the other or studies harder than the other, the shared lesson time will not work as well.
The first lesson is complimentary so that you can determine if my teaching style is right for you. After the first lesson, payment should be sent by Western Union for each month in advance. Western Union charges a nominal fee for this fund transfer.
