Question 1

Do I need to already speak some of the language to start?

Accepted Answer

No. Your first conversation is matched to your actual level. Your Schmoozer will meet you there.

Question 2

What if I don't like my Schmoozer?

Accepted Answer

Tell us why so we can improve, and feel free to browse the marketplace and find someone who's a better fit. No awkwardness, no penalty.

Question 3

Do I keep the same Schmoozer every time?

Accepted Answer

It's up to you. Rebook the same Schmoozer to build continuity, or browse and try someone new. Both work well here.

Question 4

How much does it cost?

Accepted Answer

Each Schmoozer sets their own rate, shown up front before you book. There's no Schmoozly fee added on top.

Question 5

Can I cancel or reschedule?

Accepted Answer

Yes. See our full cancellation policy for the details.

Question 6

What happens if my Schmoozer doesn't show up?

Accepted Answer

You're covered: a full refund, plus a session credit you can use with any Schmoozer.

Question 7

Do I need to download anything for video calls?

Accepted Answer

No. Sessions run in your browser: phone, tablet, or laptop.

Question 8

Is this just for one language?

Accepted Answer

We're starting with Hebrew. Schmoozly is built so it can grow into other languages down the line, but that's not something we're promising a timeline on yet.

Question 9

Is this a classroom or a curriculum?

Accepted Answer

Neither. There's no syllabus to follow. Bring whatever topics you want to talk about, or work on whatever you need. Prefer not to lead? Just tell your Schmoozer how you want the conversation guided.
