At Swoosh English, we deeply value the dedication and effort our students invest in their exam preparation.
We appreciate and respect the hard work and effort that our students put into preparing for their exams. We understand that in certain exceptional situations, a student might feel like the only solution is to request a refund. However, before taking that step, we want to make sure that you know that there are various alternatives that we can explore together, with our support, to help you succeed in your exam preparation.
Therefore, we encourage you to contact our support team ([email protected]) first so that we can collaborate and find a solution that best meets your needs.
We are committed to working with you to help you achieve your academic goals.
In the event that you decide that a refund is the only viable solution, please refer to our policy below:
