Small Group sessions (IGCSE English Language - Cambridge):

To book a place in the weekly small group sessions, please contact LESSONing the Load directly, either by Facebook or email (lessoningtheload@gmail.com). Small group sessions are priced equivalent to £10 per week and sessions are held during standard term times only. Students will be set assessments on a regular basis (usually 2-3 pieces each half-term block and one set of mock papers towards the end of their course) for the small group sessions, and if they would like these pieces marked, they must meet the deadlines given. Payments for the small group sessions are always made in half-term blocks that are non-refundable. The maximum number of students in a small group is 10, so places are limited.

To book a 1:1 place, please contact LESSONing the Load directly, either by Facebook or email (lessoningtheload@gmail.com). 1:1 GCSE/IGCSE English Language or Literature sessions are priced at £50 per hour, which includes the setting and marking of assessments if requested (during term time). Places are limited and LESSONing the Load operates a waiting list for 1:1.

The setting and marking of assessments is not included in the price of the webinars. However, LESSONing the Load does run a separate marking service if availability allows. Payment for this service is made before the setting and marking of assessments. Students have 14 days to return their answers to be marked from the date the assessments are issued. Payment is non-refundable if they fail to do so. Answers must be emailed either in Word doc. or PDF form.
