The school or instructor pays the commission. Listing your profile is completely free on the Starter plan (5% commission per booking). Upgrade to any paid plan (Independent Instructor, School, or Multi-School) and enjoy 0% commission for your entire first year after your first booking. After year one, commission is 2%. Paid plans are billed annually; there are no monthly fees or long-term lock-in contracts.","listYourSchool.faq.different.q":"How is Find a Ski School different from other platforms?","listYourSchool.faq.different.a":"Find a Ski School is a directory-first platform.

Starter takes full online payments; paid plans also unlock deposits and offline payment options. The Starter plan has a 5% commission rate (1% on rebooks), while paid plans (Independent Instructor, School, Multi-School) reduce it to just 2% (0% on rebooks) — with 0% for your entire first year after your first booking.","listYourSchool.faq.alreadyListed.q":"My school is already listed.

See the levels guide","levelsPage.links.seeFullGuide":"See the full level guide","levelsPage.faq.1.question":"What are ski levels 1–9?","levelsPage.faq.1.answer":"“Ski levels 1 to 9” is shorthand for the way many schools grade group lessons from complete beginner to expert. There is no single official version of it, and the detail varies between schools. Find a Ski School publishes its own nine-level framework — Bronze 1–3, Silver 1–3, and Gold 1–3 — in which levels 1–3 cover first steps and snowplough turns, levels 4–6 the progression to parallel skiing, and levels 7–9 carving, bumps, steeps, and off-piste. Use it to describe what you can do, then check it against the scale your school uses.","levelsPage.faq.2.question":"What ski level am I?","levelsPage.faq.2.answer":"Match your strongest reliable skill to the ladder. Never skied means level 1. Linking snowplough turns on gentle runs puts you around levels 2–3, consistent plough parallels at levels 4–5, and basic parallel turns at level 6. If you carve, ski bumps, or venture off-piste, you are in levels 7–9. The quick quiz on this page places you in under a minute.","levelsPage.faq.3.question":"How long does it take to reach parallel skiing?","levelsPage.faq.3.answer":"Most students link their first basic parallel turns — level 6, Silver 3 — after roughly two to three weeks of lessons on snow. Fitness, confidence, and practice mileage between lessons all shift that timeline, and children often take a little longer than adults. Treat it as a guide rather than a deadline: consistent, well-taught practice matters more than the calendar.","levelsPage.faq.4.question":"Are snowboard levels the same as ski levels?","levelsPage.faq.4.answer":"In our framework the ladder is the same — nine levels from first timer to expert, grouped into Bronze, Silver, and Gold — but the manoeuvres differ. Snowboarders progress through sideslipping, traverses, and linked turns instead of snowplough and plough parallel. A level number means the same standard of control in both sports here, so you can use one ladder whether you book ski or snowboard lessons. A school that grades snowboarding separately may number things differently, so check when you book.","levelsPage.faq.5.question":"Which lesson should I book for my level?","levelsPage.faq.5.answer":"Choose the lesson whose experience level matches your award tier: first timer or beginner for Bronze, intermediate for Silver, and advanced or expert for Gold. If you sit between two levels, book the lower one — an instructor can stretch a strong student far more easily than they can rebuild missed basics. In group lessons, an honest level keeps the whole group progressing.","levelsPage.faq.6.question":"How does the Bronze, Silver, and Gold award system work?","levelsPage.faq.6.answer":"Each tier holds three stages, giving nine award levels in total. Bronze takes you from your first steps to linked snowplough turns, Silver develops plough parallel into basic parallel skiing, and Gold refines carving, bumps, steeps, and off-piste. Your instructor signs off the required manoeuvres during lessons, and once every manoeuvre is ticked the award is complete and the next level begins.","levelsPage.level.1.focus":"Mobility & gliding","levelsPage.level.1.milestone":"Snowplough gliding","levelsPage.level.1.summary":"Your first steps on snow.
