Rules

The essentials

Please read these before you register.

  • Fees are due at the start of each month, before the first class.
  • Monthly fees cover a fixed 4 classes.
  • No replacement class or refund for missed classes, unless your child is unwell or there is a genuine emergency.
  • Message us on WhatsApp before class time if your child cannot come.
  • Classes start and end on time. Late arrival does not extend the slot.
  • To stop, tell Teacher Shaf one week before. Fees already paid are not refunded.
  • The trial fee is not refunded and does not guarantee a slot.
Payment
  • Fees are due at the start of each month, before the first class. Pay by bank transfer or cash.
  • Flexi Class students pay per class, before the class.
  • Send the transfer screenshot to WhatsApp so we can confirm payment.
  • If payment is not received before the first class of the month, the slot may be released to another student without further notice.
  • Monthly fees cover a fixed 4 classes per month. In a month with a 5th Friday (Group Class) or a 5th time your Personal Class day falls, that extra class is not included.
  • Group Class: Teacher Shaf tells parents in advance which Friday is skipped. Parents do not need to do anything.
  • Personal Class: parents may pay extra to attend the 5th class instead of skipping it. Arrange this with Teacher Shaf beforehand.
Attendance
  • There is no replacement class or refund for missed classes.
  • Exceptions: your child is unwell, or a genuine emergency such as a sick parent or a death in the family. Other cases can be discussed with Teacher Shaf.
  • Please tell us on WhatsApp before class time if your child cannot come.
  • If Teacher Shaf cancels a class, it is replaced or refunded.
  • Classes start and end on time. Late arrival does not extend the slot.
Health
  • Keep your child at home if they have a fever, flu, or anything contagious.
  • A medical certificate, clinic receipt, or some proof of illness is appreciated for an excused absence.
  • Light food and drinks are recommended, especially for longer classes.
Personal class at home
  • An adult (parent, guardian, or maid) must be at home during the class.
  • Please prepare a quiet space for learning before the tutor arrives.
Holidays and school breaks
  • Classes run as normal on public holidays, at the usual rate.
  • Arrangements for Ramadan and Hari Raya Aidilfitri are discussed with parents.
  • During long school holidays, there is no replacement class or refund for children who are away, including trips abroad.
  • Your child may be absent, but the monthly fee still applies. It holds the slot.
Flexi Class
  • Seats are limited: 5 flexi students per subject and up to 3 flexi students in any one class slot. When full, new parents join a waiting list.
  • Tell Teacher Shaf at least one day before you attend. Bookings are taken in the order received.
  • If a slot is full, Teacher Shaf offers the other slot for that subject on the same Friday.
  • Attend at least once a month, per subject.
  • Miss a full month in a subject and the seat goes to the next parent on the waiting list. Your name moves to the end of the list.
  • A booking turned away because a slot was full still counts as attendance for that month.
  • Permanent students always have priority for seats.
  • Repeated no-shows after booking may mean the flexi place is released.
  • Flexi students do not take a trial class, so parents must say at sign-up if their child has ADHD, autism, or any other condition or behaviour that may need extra attention or support. Parents are encouraged to talk to Teacher Shaf before enrolling.
  • If a flexi student is later found too difficult to manage safely or fairly alongside other students, Teacher Shaf may end that flexi enrolment immediately, without prior notice.
Good to know
  • The trial fee is not refunded and does not guarantee a slot.
  • Class photos may be used for advertising. Message us on WhatsApp if you prefer your child not to be included.
  • To stop classes, tell Teacher Shaf at least one week before. Fees already paid are not refunded.
