  • Scroll down and make the additional bookings with other teachers as necessary.  You’re not obliged to make a booking for every teacher so only book those that you only want to see as availability is limited.

Step 5: Viewing and Managing Your Bookings

  • You can view your confirmed bookings in the Bookings tab.
  • Clicking on the three dots (⋮) menu will allow you to:
    • Cancel a booking if needed – you can go back the Invites tab and re-make the booking if need be.
    • Add meeting notes for the teacher (useful if you have specific topics to discuss).
