Your first class of the term is confirmed. We will let you know by July 10, 2020, if your class enrollment is too low to continue offering your classes for the rest of the term. In this case, you will be paid for the first class only. Payments will be made through QuickPay with Zelle. You will be asked to submit your QuickPay with Zelle account info below. Planned absences should be submitted to Kay Liang (kay@pono.nyc) along with a lesson plan and contact information for a substitute teacher who will lead the class in your absence. Should you find that you are unwell and unable to find a substitute teacher you must notify Kay Liang (kay@pono.nyc) by 6:00 pm the night before your class; the class will be canceled and you will not be paid for missed classes. If Pono intends to cancel a class due to student absences, you will be notified as soon as possible. If the cancellation is within 24 hours of the scheduled class you will be paid as usual. Pono will provide a Zoom account for your Virtual Class. If you are unfamiliar with Zoom, please take the time to look through our Zoom Training section in advance.
