Huckleberry English School recruits students to be introduced to native-speaking
teachers. This allows the teacher to concentrate solely on instructing
the students. Huckleberry manages lesson times, dates locations and acts
as a liaison between the students and
the teachers.
Getting started
Teachers registered with Huckleberry are advertised on a Huckleberry website.
Huckleberry posts a profile of the teacher on the website. This allows
prospective students to choose a teacher to meet for a free trial lesson.
Trial lesson
Students studying with a particular teacher for the first time may request a 15-minute free trial lesson.
These trial lessons take place in Odori (i.e. near Odori park in a café).
The teacher, prospective student and a representative from Huckleberry
are present at the trial lesson. ( Teacher, student and representative
have to pay for drinking expenses by themselves. )
Regular lessons
When regular lessons begin the teacher sets his/her own fees.
The student only pay the teacher directly following each lesson.
Huckleberry does not receive a percentage of the teacher’s fees, but gain all company revenue from the student introductory fees. Therefore, the teacher can maximize his/her income.
If a teacher needs a textbook for a student, the teacher purchases the textbook for the student. Of course the teacher charges the student for the textbook in advance or beforehand.
Student counseling / problem solving
If a student ever has any concerns or complaints about a lesson, the student informs a Huckleberry staff member and the staff member meets with the teacher to improve the lesson or resolve any problems.
