Frequently asked questions

A diagnostic helps the tutor see the child's real level in 30–40 minutes: which topics are mastered and where the gaps are. Based on the result, the teacher builds an individual plan instead of working blind.

Yes, you can view all tasks and answers on this page. But the diagnostic is most useful in a lesson with a tutor who explains mistakes right away and adjusts the plan.

Roughly 30–40 minutes depending on the number of tasks and the child's pace. It is a full first lesson.
