Language class service clauses

Any absence from a video or telephone class that is not communicated 24 hours in advance will be deducted from this package as well as any absence from a face-to-face class not communicated 48 hours in advance will be deducted from the package.

For group classes, whether by video, telephone or in person, if one of the students in the group cancels his or her participation in the class, the class will be deducted from the present package unless the entire group cancels the class within the time limit specified in the present general terms of sale.

Any delay to a course will be deducted and not recoverable. The courses given by READY INTERNATIONAL with the READY INTERNATIONAL methods are protected by the copyright laws in force. Thus, any representation, reproduction in whole or in part without the authorization of READY INTERNATIONAL and the disclosure of the READY INTERNATIONAL methods by any means or in any form whatsoever, outside of the classes given by READY INTERNATIONAL, without the prior written consent of READY INTERNATIONAL, is illicit and exposes you to legal proceedings.

On the other hand, the student or his/her parents if he/she is a minor, accept that the class may be recorded by the teacher. The READY INTERNATIONAL pedagogical department may ask the teacher to record the entire on-screen class given in a videoconference (the written conversations during the videoconference are also recorded during the entire video) and to transmit the recording to the Ready International pedagogical training department. The video recordings contain the lessons with the trainee(s) and everything that is presented on the screen. The trainer must inform the trainee(s) of this before the course begins. The video recording will not be released to the public. In the event that the student does not agree to be recorded, he/she should send an email to the Sales Administration Department to confirm this.
