No. You only teach students you met through SIRIUS through SIRIUS. This also applies if they contact you privately after their membership.
What's not allowed?
Arranging lessons with SIRIUS students outside the platform, for example via Zoom, phone or in person.
Offering students to book directly with you instead of through SIRIUS.
Continuing to teach former SIRIUS students privately, for example if they contact you via Instagram or email.
Poaching students is a breach of contract.
For each case, the Terms and Conditions for teachers provide for a contractual penalty of €5,000. SIRIUS can also end the collaboration without notice.
A student asks you privately. What do I do?
Step 1: Stay friendly and explain that lessons with you are only possible through SIRIUS.
Step 2: Point them to SIRIUS. Anyone who wants to keep learning with you simply takes out a membership again.
Step 3: Let us know briefly in the chat. We'll make sure you get back together.
A possible reply: “Great that you'd like to continue! Lessons with me are only possible through SIRIUS. Just take out a membership again and we'll schedule your next lesson right away.”
What's allowed?
You may teach students you win yourself, for example through your own website, privately.
Why does this rule exist?
SIRIUS invests in winning new students and matches them with you. You benefit from this with every new trial lesson.
You'll find all rules in the Terms and Conditions for teachers.
