Pricing, explained

Why the beginner track costs less than a coffee a class

LUXI, a Spanish-market school teaching the same HSK 1 syllabus, charges €45 a month for 8 live sessions — about €5.60 each, on a seven-month minimum commitment. We charge $39 a month for around 20 live sessions, month to month, with a 30-day free trial. Same level, more contact hours, no lock-in. We are cheaper per class because our classes are group classes and our teachers are salaried — not because they are shorter or less qualified.

Not sure which level you can pass?

Registering too high wastes a fee and two months. Registering too low wastes an application cycle. The level check takes two minutes.
