Q: What if a student is unable to attend an upcoming class?

The student is required to inform the teacher about their absence from a particular session, two days prior to the class. In such a case, the teacher will reschedule the class and conduct the rescheduled class on or before the end (i.e. Saturday) of the ensuing week or such other time as may be mutually decided between the teacher and the student. In case the student misses to give two days prior notice about their absence to the teacher, then the decision to conduct another class for that student is completely based on the teacher’s discretion.
