Everyone should make the reservation personally. We will then send you instructions how to secure your reservation, the rental agreement form and the instructions how to pay and the account details for the survival package rental fee payment. Once you have followed the instructions we will confirm your reservation.

However, please note that the tutors are not obligated to do this and not all tutors are able to do this on your behalf. If you wish for your tutor to collect your package, you must pre-arrange this with them.
