HOUSE OF LEARNING
Book time with our Learning Guides
Learning Guide: our daytime hosts who bridge the tavern and house of learning. Each of our learning guides are available to be an onramp to learning and text study. Book time with them to begin your learning journey at Lehrhaus.
Who can participate in 1:1 Learning? Members are welcome to unlimited 1:1 sessions as 1:1 learning is included in the cost of membership ($36/month).
If you are not a member, we limit free 1:1 learning to 3 sessions. If you are interested in continuing after 3 sessions, we ask that you either join as a member, purchase a day pass ($26), or make a donation to Lehrhaus. This helps ensure that we are able to compensate our Learning Guides for their time and expertise.
