The Fine Print
By registering, you are indicating that you have reviewed and consent to these terms.
Weekly language classes-
Cancellation: If you have registered for a class and find you cannot attend, contact Italiano With Jodina (IWJ) at least five (5) business days prior to class start date. A credit voucher or a refund minus a $25 processing fee will be issued.
Fewer than 5 days prior to class start, a credit voucher minus a $25 processing fee toward the next class will be issued. A credit voucher may be also be applied to a prepaid package of private lessons. Refunds will not be issued fewer than 5 days prior to class start,
Once a class starts, there will be no refunds or credit issued for any reason, including for non-attendance. Unattended classes cannot be made up or credited to future class sessions.
Lesson duration determined by number of students enrolled: Enrollment and student availability fluctuate in any given session. Minimum class size is 6 students (duration 2 hours). If enrollment is fewer than 6, the class will operate as a semi-private, small-group lesson. The fee will either remain the same, with the number and length of lessons adjusted (or those enrolled may choose to pay more) to accommodate fewer students.
NOTE: Early enrollment is essential in planning. We will be contacting everyone who has signed up several days before a session begins to let them know where enrollment stands.
Materials fee: (Applies to some weekly language classes) To be communicated by emnail following registration. Average $20-30. Choice of materials used is dynamic and based upon experience & needs of students enrolled in a specific course.
The minimum class size is six students. In the event of insufficient enrollment, IWJ reserves the right to cancel a class, to offer the session as a small private group lesson with adjustment in session length and/or fee paid, or to offer students the chance to sign up for a different class.
Missed classes: If you are unable to attend your regularly scheduled class, communicate with the instructor ahead of time, so that the class may be recorded, so that you can watch the replay. Unused/unattended portions of a course will not be reimbursed or credited toward future class sessions.
Special & One-time Events: (i.e., Sunday Brunch Conversation Classes/Clinics and Cook-Along Classes) Payments for virtual cooking classes are final, no refunds, cancellations or exchanges.
All classes, clinics, events-
Cost is per-person not per-screen for virtual/online classes, whether participants attend separately or from the same location, just as for in-person classes, clinics, and events.
Insufficient enrollment: If IWJ must cancel a class or program due to insufficient enrollment or other unforeseen circumstances, students will receive a complete refund or credit toward a future class.
Remote Attendance: Attendance for online classes is via whichever online video-conferencing or virtual platform is deemed best suited to class format and curriculum; currently we are using Zoom.
Directions for connecting online will be emailed after registration & prior to class start.
Students are responsible for their own computer equipment, and any necessary programs and equipment (i.e., webcams, headsets, etc.) should be installated and set up ahead of class start time. Teacher will offer advice as able. No guarantees are made as to quality of the internet connection, reception, third-party programs, etc., of a class attended online in real-time.
Use of images for promotion: Online classes are recorded for purposes of replay and review by those in attendance. Occasionally, a brief sampling of the recording footage may be used for demo and promotional purposes. IWJ pledges to use care in choosing clips that put everyone in a good light.
Sharing or reproduction of materials: Original instructional materials, recordings, and website content accessed, shared and received as part of class coursework are protected and reserved for use and access by enrolled students. These are proprietary to IWJ and may not be reproduced, distributed, either in whole or in part, or shared to anyone or place, either in person or on the Internet.
