And now for your FAQs.....

Q. What languages can I study with my Groupon?
You can use your Groupon for Total Beginner Arabic, French, Italian, Mandarin and Spanish classes in the following categories:

EVENING CLASSES (6 weeks only)
DAYTIME AND WEEKEND CLASSES (6 weeks only)

Q: How do I enroll?
To enroll in a class, click on the language of your choice from the below list. If you see a class you would like to enroll in, click on "enroll now" and follow the steps. When you get to the payment page, be sure to check Gift Certificate/Coupon and enter your groupon number in the box below.

ARABIC http://abclang.com/arabic.htm
FRENCH http://abclang.com/french.htm
ITALIAN http://abclang.com/italian.htm
MANDARIN http://abclang.com/mandarin.htm
SPANISH http://abclang.com/spanish.htm

Q: I am not a Total Beginner, what can I do?
Your groupon is only valid for TOTAL BEGINNER classes so you may want to take this opportunity to try out a new language! If you are interested in an above-beginner class, you are welcome to fill out our self-evaluation
form at: http://abclang.com/group_eval.htm. Regular group rates will apply minus registration fee which is covered by your Groupon

Q: I don't see a schedule that works for me, what should I do?
We have new classes starting each month. Let us know what schedule works for you so we can keep that in mind when setting future classes by filling out our scheduling survey: http://abclang.com/survey.htm

Q: I have enrolled online, now how do I get my materials?
We will have your materials waiting for you on the first day of class. There is no additional fee for materials.

Q: How much will I learn in 6 weeks?
In 6 lessons, you will get an introduction to the language and learn a few of the basics. Becoming truly fluent in a language is a long-term adventure so this is an opportunity for you to try it out, get some basic skills and see if you are inspired to make this a part of your life.

Q: What happens when my 6 week enrollment ends and I want to continue?
Most students continue studying their language of choice beyond 6 weeks. When you finish your enrollment, your group will continue (as long as a minimum of 4 students remain enrolled) and you may choose from one of our enrollment packages. You will NOT have to pay the $50 registration fee, as that was covered in your Groupon deal.

Q: I haven't heard back from anyone yet. When should I expect to hear back?
As you may know, Groupon is wildly popular. The first few days after the offer goes out, our staff may be a bit swamped. Rest assured, we will be in contact soon. We will be handling immediate enrollments for upcoming
classes first, and then future enrollment questions thereafter.

Q: Who are your teachers?
Our teachers are professional instructors with a minimum of 2 years teaching experience before they start with us. They are familiar with multiple methods of language instruction and follow our communicative and learner-centered approach.

Q: When are you open? Can I come by to see the school?
Our main office is open from Monday to Thursday 10am-7pm, Friday 10am-6pm. We'd be happy to meet you but ask that you wait a couple of weeks as we really want to prevent a stampede. If you have any questions, you can always email us at groups@abclang.com

Q: What happens if I cannot use my enrollment in the next 6 months?
I am afraid your enrollment will be forfeited. The expiration date is 11/25/10 so please do your best to enroll in a class before that date so as not to lose your enrollment package.

Q: What happens if I miss a class?
Just like a college class, if you miss the class, you miss the class. There are no make ups. However, we can e-mail you the material covered so you can do self-study to catch up.

Q: What if I discover I cannot finish out my enrollment?
You will forfeit the rest of your enrollment. Try to pick a course you are sure you can take from start to finish.

Q: What should I do if I want a refund?
Your enrollment was purchased through Groupon. You will need to contact them with any questions regarding a refund. ABC Language Exchange is unable to issue any refunds.

Still have questions? Please email us at groups@abclang.com and we will get back to you as quickly as possible.

We look forward to seeing you here soon!
