Congratulations on the new job. Two years is a long wait, and you earned it.

Friday 25 September is cancelled — you told me well over five hours ahead, so nothing is owed and nothing changes. Your place is held. We are back on Friday 2 October, unless you tell me your new schedule suits a different day.

Four free hours are yours every month — and you are very welcome to come more than once a week. Many students do.

Come along for at least three hours a month and your Free Forever place simply continues, year after year. If work gets busy and you fall below that, just tell me — there is always a way to keep your place.

Everything is settled — nothing is outstanding. If you ever want an hour of your own at a time that fits around shifts, private hours are available at rosscline.com/products/myteacherprivate30.
