Is one to one lonely compared with a batch?
Different rather than lonelier, and it depends entirely on the learner. A private session is a working partnership with one adult who knows your project completely, which many students find more social than a batch, not less, because every minute is conversation. What one to one genuinely lacks is peers: the demo day audience, the batchmate whose different mistake teaches you something. Students who want both often do a term of each, and we will say honestly in the free session which reading we get from your learner.
How personalised is it really, beyond the marketing word?
Concretely: the first month contains a goal interview and a placement, out of which comes a written milestone map for that one learner, three to six months long, reviewed with the family monthly. The weekly session plan is rebuilt around whatever last week revealed, which is the thing a fixed batch syllabus cannot do. When we say the syllabus follows the learner, that map and those monthly reviews are the mechanism, and you can ask to see them at any point.
Is it the same teacher every time?
Yes, by design, because the compounding value of one to one is a teacher who holds the learner's whole history: what they avoid, what unlocked them in March, which explanation style lands. If a teacher becomes unavailable long-term, the handover includes the milestone map and session notes, and the family meets the incoming teacher before anything changes. Random teacher rotation defeats the format and we do not do it.
Can we switch between group and one to one later?
Yes, in both directions, and it is a conversation rather than a contract change. The common patterns: adults doing the clumsy first two months privately and then joining a batch; a teen leaving a batch for a private sprint before an exam or competition and returning after; a child who went quiet in a group finding their voice one to one. Format is a tool, and the right answer can change with the season.
How does scheduling work across time zones?
The slot is pinned to your clock, not ours, and one to one is the format for lives that fixed batch times cannot fit: shift workers, travelling parents, athletes with training calendars, students juggling school systems. Rescheduling inside a week is normal rather than penalised, because the alternative is a missed session nobody benefits from. The teacher keeps the odd hours; that is part of what the fee buys.
Can two siblings share one session?
Each learner gets their own enrolment and their own sessions, and this is pedagogy rather than billing: two siblings are two different learners with different paces, different gaps and, usually, a strong opinion about each other's answers. What families sometimes do instead is enrol both and schedule the sessions back to back, which keeps one screen-time window for the household while giving each child a session that is entirely theirs.
Which subjects are one to one only, and which can be either?
Almost everything we teach runs in both formats: vibe coding, Python, web, app development, analytics, machine learning. The exception is the AI agents family, Copilot Studio and the terminal coding agents, which we teach one to one only at every age, because software that takes actions needs a teacher watching every action, an argument made in full on the agents pages. If you came to this page for agents, the format question is already answered.
Is there a free trial session for one to one as well?
Yes, the same promise as everywhere on this site: the first session is free, no card, and it is a real working session with the actual teacher, not a separate salesperson. For one to one it doubles as the start of the goal interview, so nothing about it is wasted if you continue, and nothing about it obligates you if you do not.
What does one to one cost?
USD 150 a month, flat, in every country we serve outside India, billed monthly with no joining fee and no minimum stay. For comparison, group batches are USD 100, so the private premium is deliberately small: we price the format for families who need it rather than as a luxury tier. The agents courses, which are one to one only, sit at the same USD 150.
How do we start?
Send the form and tell us two things on the callback: who is learning, and what a win would look like in six months, even roughly. The free session takes it from there, and by its end you will have met the likely teacher, seen the format working on your learner's actual level, and heard our honest read on whether one to one or a batch serves this particular goal better.
