The “Luxury Learning at the Beach” program in partnership with TakeLessons will offer hand-selected, qualified USA-based instructors and tutors in over 300+ academic and enrichment subjects
Waldorf Astoria Los Cabos Pedregal has partnered with trusted national tutoring service, TakeLessons, to bring virtual educational programming to resort guests in need of tutoring (grades K through college), remote coaching and instructional support. Upon booking a stay at Waldorf Astoria Los Cabos Pedregal, guests can work with their Personal Concierge to arrange a virtual meeting with a dedicated TakeLessons Education Guide to discuss student needs and goals, and develop a custom program prior to their stay. Educational programs begin on property and can continue once guests return home by working with the TakeLessons team to expand sessions beyond the resort.
“As a father myself, I know how challenging it is for parents to navigate remote learning so we are thrilled to be working with the instructional experts at TakeLessons to provide our guests with a Five-Star online educational and tutoring service,” said General Manager Fernando Flores. “We hope to ease the stress of virtual learning for our guests by providing learning support in a relaxing environment to inspire creativity and deliver new experiences that expand the mind. In doing so, this will also give guests the ability to choose an extended-stay vacation in a safe environment while knowing their kids aren’t falling behind at school.”
TakeLessons is a trusted online service for finding qualified, hand-selected instructors and tutors, inviting learners of all ages to connect with a USA-based instructor in over 300+ subjects ranging from online academic tutoring, homework supports, language, music, and activities for schools and distance learning.
