1. How long does it take to complete the whole beginners course?

It takes 9 months to complete all beginner courses at Siri.

We divide these 9 months into 3 terms of 12 weeks each .

2. Must my child have a laptop to join the classes?

No, a laptop gives the best experience of learning on the campus, but is not a requirement.

Although laptops are the best for online learning, your kids can learn just fine on a phone or tablet.

3. My child goes to boarding school. Can they still learn with you?

Yes! We have many students in boarding schools. As long as they have access to the internet and a computer in their school, they can access virtual classes on the weekends at a time they prefer.

Because our lessons are fun and interactive, we have realised teens don't need to be pushed or reminded to attend.

4. My child missed the live class. Is there a refund or make-up class?

Missing the live class should only happen in a worst case scenario because it is an integral part of their learning. Make up classes - though plausible- are ineffective because the students miss out on the collaborative problem solving experience from their classmates. Therefore, the best option is to access the recording of the class which is always available to students.

No- we do not offer refunds for missed live lessons.

5. Do I have to be present for all the virtual lessons?

For the 1st 2 virtual lessons we advise that a parent or knowledgable adult be in the vicinity during the lesson. This is to assist your child while they familiarise with the campus.

It's also good to be sure you like the teacher and classmates as well as how the class is run 😉
