Sign language teachers: lessons for families
How sign language teachers can book lessons for families online: one booking per family, home or studio lessons, weekly sessions from your list and children.
5 min read
Families learning sign language together, parents, siblings, grandparents, want lessons at home or at a time when everyone is free, with signs they'll use every day. With Book, a family books one lesson for the whole household on your own booking page, and you book the weekly lessons that follow from your list.
Family services
On Book, each service has a name, a price and an optional description, all shown on your public page. Each slot belongs to one service, sits within one day and has its own capacity.
| Service | Example slot | Places | Example price |
|---|---|---|---|
| Family lesson at home (up to 5) | 1 h 15 | 1 | €60 |
| Family lesson at the studio | 1 h | 1 | €50 |
| Video family lesson | 1 h | 1 | €45 |
| First family meeting | 45 min | 1 | Free |
Durations and prices are examples. Say how many family members a booking covers.
One booking per family
Give family lesson slots one place: one parent books for the household, and the slot leaves your page. The booking form takes first name, last name, email and phone, plus an optional note that reaches you in the new booking email: ask who will take part, children's ages, and what situations they want signs for.
Home lessons by area
For lessons at home, include travel in the slot, create services by area, and ask for the address in the note.
Weekly lessons from your list
After the first meeting, agree a weekly time and book the lessons yourself from your bookings list. First and last name are enough; with their email, the family gets a confirmation with a calendar file for each lesson. Slots repeat weekly on the weekdays you choose until an end date; don't open public slots at times given to regular families.
Children and adults together
Say in the description how you adapt lessons for children and adults learning together, such as games and songs for younger children.
Video lessons
Families far away can learn by video. Create a video service and send your link by email: Book doesn't create video links.
Holidays and changes
Book lessons term by term and leave holiday weeks empty if families prefer. Families can't move or cancel online: they contact you, and you move the lesson from your list.
What Book doesn't do
Book doesn't take payments, sell lesson packs or send reminders. One booking page per business, no staff field: with other teachers, create services per teacher. See the guide on beginner course cycles. Book costs €5/month, everything included: unlimited services and bookings, no commission, no contract.
