Many students pause lessons for summer holidays, which can reduce bookings. Use the steps below to keep your calendar healthy while supporting your students.

1) Understand students’ summer plans

1. Ask regulars early: Send a quick message to confirm who is traveling and who wants extra practice time.
2. Mind time zones: If you teach internationally, note school holidays and adjust availability to match when those students are free.

2) Adjust your Availability Calendar

1. Open Dashboard ▸ Availability Calendar.
2. Add/extend blocks for mornings and early evenings (often easier for summer schedules).
3. If you’re personally away, temporarily remove your availability for those days/weeks (there’s no "break” switch; just close your slots).

3) Experiment with hours to reach new students

• Offer a few early morning or late evening slots to overlap with other regions.
• Try a consistent 2–3 week experiment, then keep the slots that get booked.

4) Use downtime productively

• Refresh your profile: Update your intro, teaching highlights, and profile video.
• Improve materials: Draft new warm-ups, repertoire lists, or practice guides you can share in lessons.
• Budget check: Plan for a lighter month so your finances aren’t surprised by seasonality.

5) Communicate clearly

• Post brief availability notes on your profile (e.g., "Expanded morning times for July”).
• Message current students with any temporary schedule changes and offer alternative times.

Quick tips

• Weekdays 15:00–21:00 (student local time) and weekend mornings often perform well—use them as a starting point and refine from your actual bookings.
• Review your calendar weekly in summer and adjust based on what’s filling.
