Questions

Anything else? Write to us.

  • What ages do you work with?

    From 10 to 18, or until the end of secondary school. Each programme shows its age range.

  • Online or in person?

    Clubs run live online. Bootcamps run online and in person in Switzerland. Tutoring works both ways.

  • What is a founding price?

    The first families in a new club or programme pay a lower launch price. In the clubs, it stays locked while you remain a member.

  • Which languages?

    English, French and Russian.

  • How does payment work?

    Reserve a place and we confirm dates and payment details by email. Nothing is charged on this site.

  • We do not live in Switzerland.

    No problem. We can quote in EUR or USD.

  • What if it is not a good fit?

    Monthly programmes stop any month. For fixed programmes we find a fair solution with you.
