Time required

On weekdays, during the day
As the young people usually come home from school around 2:00 p.m./3:00 p.m., it would make sense for the tutoring to take place in the afternoon. As the pupils have a lot to learn, we can probably expect a maximum of one hour of concentration time. If there is time and interest, we would also be happy about accompaniment on excursions or to appointments.
