| Contracts are signed at the trial lesson. Basically, the contract between Yemni English club and the instructor is very simple and states that when we find a student who matches your schedule and other requirements, we will introduce that student to you. However, it is not a contract guaranteeing introduction or payment. If we are unable to find a student who meets your requirements, please understand that it may take some time before we can find such a student or we may we not be able to find such a student at all. It doesn’tmatter if you are presently employed by another company; however, you are required to state so when signing the contract. We do not take responsibility for any disputes with your present employer arising from registering with us.

Relationship between Club and Instructor |

The student will pay you at the end of the lesson. There are no restrictions to the number of lessons that may be taken or the length of the course. |

Instructors pay for their own transportation. When you register, make sure you select the correct station.
If the lesson takes place at a restaurant or cafe, the instructor must pay for what they order (not required to pay for students). Instructors are not required to purchase the textbook the student is using or may want to use. The instructor pays for any lesson-related calls. |
|
Prohibited Activities |
|
Lessons with students are for English conversation learning. Sales talks, recruiting, or any other such actions are strictly prohibited. If we receive complaints from students and after investigating the matter find the instructor in the wrong, the instructor’s registration will be deleted. |
|
Schedule Changes, Registration Deletion, Vacation Requests |
|
When you decide the date of the next lesson, make sure you decide a date where you will not have to cancel. If for some unavoidable reason you have to cancel the lesson, contact the student as soon as possible and set a new lesson date. Being late or not turning up to the lesson without contacting the student will result in registration deletion.
If the student cancels or needs to change the schedule, we will contact you the day before the lesson at the latest. If the student cancels on the day of the lesson, you will be reimbursed. However, if there are minor changes to lesson place or time on the day of the lesson, these will be judged case by case.
If the student requests a lesson at a different place from the usual agreed place, the student is required to cover any extra travel expenses. If the instructor requests the change, then the same applies to the instructor. |
|
Long-term Vacation |
|
If you need to return home or would like a long vacation, please give us and the student at least a one-month notice. If the student doesn’t mind taking a break, the lessons will resume upon your return. However, if the student doesn’t want to wait, a new instructor will be appointed. If you give us enough notice, we can make the required schedule changes. |
|
| Resignation |
|
If you wish to stop teaching or remove your name from our registration office, please give us at least one-months notice. |
|
Trouble, Disputes |
|
If there is any trouble or dispute between you and the student, contact us as soon as possible. We do not take sides but will mediate and deal with the problem as objectively as we can. However, we do not take responsibility and do not pay any compensation which may occur through lawsuits or other legal action. |
|
If you agree to the above, we welcome you to register as a Yemni English Club instructor. |
