“On our last trip home, my daughter was able to speak Albanian so well with her gjyshe, it brought tears to her eyes. It also made the trip so much more meaningful when she saw everything she’s been learning about! So glad we found Mëso!Shqip – a must for any busy parent wanting to provide a truly exceptional and meaningful extracurricular.”

How long do I stay with the same instructor?

Students typically work with their primary instructor for up to 36 weeks, the length of one level or one grade, or as long as we can facilitate while taking into account a student’s advancement in the coursework, and availability of both the student and instructor. During transitional seasons, peak times, and holidays, students may be matched with a new primary instructor given availability. We always notify families in advance of any updates to the primary instructor. In some cases, we will also offer a temporary substitute instructor if your primary instructor is traveling or unavailable during a specific week.

How does the student/instructor matching process work?

Once the student enrollment is completed, Mëso!Shqip’s student success team hand-pairs every student with their primary instructor. Our instructor matching is carefully done by our team. If you don’t love learning with your instructor after a few classes, we’ll work as a team to help improve your experience, whether that means adjusting the class pace, style, or primary instructor.

Can I pick my instructor for my classes?

The Mëso!Shqip HQ team handles all instructor hiring and vetting, as well as staffing of specific instructors for students and class times. All instructors pass a rigorous hiring process and are all regularly assessed on their performance based on feedback from parents and students as well as an internal review process conducted by the Mëso!Shqip HQ team. There is no such thing as a star-rating system at Mëso!Shqip because each of our instructors passes the highest standard of hiring before they work with any students.

Our team takes into account multiple factors when matching a student with their primary instructor, including the student’s age, Albanian language proficiency, Albanian dialect or regional tendency, personality, learning style, and scheduling availability.
