What will I do with my lesson memo if the student left the class early?
> If the student entered and left, make sure to wait until the 25th minute of the time.
If the student left the class early and you're sure there was no technical problem on either your or the student's side:
- if you could conduct the lesson for at least 10minutes, post a lesson memo; the lesson will be paid
- if you could conduct the lesson for less than 10 minutes, tag the student absent
