Communication with Customer Success
How and when to communicate with Customer Success, including response times and escalation rules.
1. Your Contact Person
Your contact at Swap Language is the Customer Success team.
They support you with:
-
New groups
-
Learner-related issues
-
Level mismatches
- Reschedules when it is for full series (not single reschedules)
-
Escalations
Customer Success ensures operational alignment between teachers, learners, and companies.
2. The 3-Hour Response Rule (When Offered New Groups)
When you are offered a new group:
You have 3 hours to respond.
If no response is received within 3 hours:
-
The group may be offered to another teacher
-
You lose priority for that group
This ensures learners are placed quickly and professionally.
3. Where Communication Happens
All communication with Customer Success must happen via:
The Support Chat or Email
Available on the teacher pages on the Swap Language website
Do not use:
-
Private messaging
-
SMS
-
Social media
-
Personal email
All operational communication must stay inside official channels.
4. Changes to Existing Groups
If something changes in an existing group (e.g., structure, scheduling, learner situation):
You must submit the appropriate form.
Do not handle structural changes directly with learners.
This ensures:
-
Documentation
-
Transparency
-
Alignment with company agreements
5. When You Must Inform Customer Success
You must contact Customer Success if:
-
A learner informs you they want to stop the course
Do not handle exits independently.
-
A learner misses 3 lessons in a row
Attendance is monitored and reported to companies.
-
There is a clear level mismatch in the group
If the difference in language level affects lesson quality or group balance.
-
You experience recurring policy resistance
If a learner repeatedly challenges attendance rules or rescheduling policies.
6. Why Escalation Matters
Consistent escalation:
-
Protects you from uncomfortable negotiations
-
Protects fairness across groups
-
Protects company trust
-
Protects operational consistency
