If you've found a Tutor you really connect with and want to use the Personalized Path feature to help master your language skills, both you and your tutor need to have the Path feature enabled.

Can my Tutor modify the Personalized Learning Path for me?
With Personalized Path feature, each lesson is focused on a specific topic. So, in this context, lessons and topics are essentially the same thing within the Personalized Path.
If you already know some parts of the Personalized Learning Path, your Tutor can skip through those topics. Conversely, if you need more time to understand a specific topic, the Tutor can add extra lessons to slow down the pace.
These adjustments can be made for upcoming topics that haven't been completed yet.

What if I decide to opt out of the Personalized Path after learning with it for some time?
You will still be able to schedule 1-1 lessons with your Tutor as usual. However, you won't have the opportunity to utilize self-practice exercises.
Can I progress through the Personalized Path without having lessons with the Tutor?
No. 1-1 lessons are the main driving force behind your progress in the Personalized Learning Path, since having live classes with a language specialist is the best way to have language concepts properly explained.
Is it mandatory for me to complete practice exercises to progress through the Personalized Path?
Students have the flexibility to skip practice sessions temporarily within the Learning Path. If a practice task is missed, the progression simply continues the next day based on the Student's timezone.
However, missed practice sessions will need to be completed later to advance to the next Personalized Path Unit. We highly recommend completing practice sessions along with 1-1 lessons for the most effective learning experience.
These exercises reinforce the concepts covered in classes with the Tutor, strengthening understanding and speeding up language learning progress.
How can I practise Vocabulary from my Personalized Path?
On the Personalized Path page, by opening "Show all path", you will encounter the "Words for Unit" field. Clicking on this button, you will find additional option labeled "Learn words in app".
