5.3 Failure to schedule or attend this lesson after giving notice of termination, or not responding to the tutor within 7 days, will be interpreted by the tutor as your indication of no longer wishing to continue tuition, and they may charge for this missed lesson.

5.4 If you do not provide any notice of termination, the tutor may charge for one session.

6.1 All materials, including but not limited to lesson plans, worksheets, and instructional content, provided by the Company during the tuition sessions are protected by intellectual property rights and shall remain the sole property of the Company.
