4.  You will now be able to log in and out using your User ID and Password.

5.  You are now ready to make your appointments as soon as the booking window opensTo prepare to book appointments, make sure you know the names of the teachers you wish to see, as well as the subject they teach your childYou may also wish to consider the priority of those teachers whom you wish to see.
