Question

Use systems instead of time. Book lessons at times that suit work (we teach 7 days a week at UK-friendly times), keep a fixed 10-minute practice slot (after dinner or before bed), use the teacher’s recordings when you can’t listen, read the monthly progress report, and do one weekly 15-minute check-in where your child recites to you. Share roles with the other parent or grandparents. Long working days don’t have to mean falling behind. A few systems keep things on track.The working parent’s systemPartHowLesson timesEvenings or weekends; we teach 7 days a weekDaily practice10 minutes at a fixed time you’re homeRecordingsYour child practises with the teacher’s audioWeekly check-in15 minutes at the weekend: your child recites to youProgress reportRead monthly; reply to the teacherShare the loadThe other parent takes some days.

Same time, most days.Teacher’s tip: 10 minutes with a parent who’s fully present beats 30 minutes with a parent on their phone. Put the phone away for those 10 minutes.Related: Using the progress report.
