Refund Policy for Lessons
Cancellation Within 24 Hours
- No refund will be issued if a lesson is canceled within 24 hours of the scheduled start time. This policy ensures that our tutors are fairly compensated for their time and preparation.
Cancellation More Than 24 Hours Before the Lesson
- If a lesson needs to be canceled more than 24 hours before it is due to take place, we strongly encourage both students and tutors to reschedule the lesson at a mutually convenient time. Rescheduling is a great way to ensure that learning continues without disruption.
Refunds for Cancellations Beyond 24 Hours
- If rescheduling is not an option, students may request a refund. Please note that all refund requests will be subject to a 3-day review period and a processing fee. This allows us to carefully assess each situation and ensure that all parties are treated fairly. Once the review is complete and the refund is approved, it will be processed promptly.
Our refund policy balances the needs of students and tutors, ensuring that everyone is treated fairly. By encouraging rescheduling and implementing a clear cancellation policy, we aim to minimize disruptions and maintain a positive learning environment for all. If you have any questions or concerns, please don’t hesitate to contact our Support Team.
Refund Policy for Resources
At A Global Mind, we take great pride in the quality and effectiveness of our educational resources. We are confident our materials will meet your needs and help you achieve your language learning or teaching goals.
Non-Refundable Policy
Due to the nature of digital content, all sales of resources, including lesson plans, courses, and other downloadable materials, are final and non-refundable. Once a resource has been purchased and accessed, we are unable to offer a refund, exchange, or credit.
Why No Refunds?
- Immediate Access: Upon purchase, you receive instant access to the resource, allowing you to download and use it immediately. This instant delivery makes it impossible to return the digital content.
- Quality Assurance: We ensure that all resources are created by experienced educators and reviewed for accuracy and quality before being made available on our platform. We strive to provide reliable, high-quality materials that enhance your teaching or learning experience.
Exceptions
Refunds will only be considered under exceptional circumstances, such as if the wrong resource was delivered due to a technical error. Please contact our Support Team within 7 days of purchase for assistance in such cases.
