Follow a lesson request, accept the time the club proposes and read your coach's profile.

Lessons with a coach, such as private lessons, start as a request without a fixed time. You
agree on the time with the club and the coach in the booking's conversation, then accept the
time they propose. To send a lesson request, see
[Requests and waitlists](/en/guide/members/requests-and-waitlists).

## 1. Follow a coaching request [#1-follow-a-coaching-request]

Open **My account**, select the **Reservations** tab and select the lesson in **My upcoming
reservations**. While the club has not set a time, the booking shows **Awaiting your club** and
its **Time** reads **To be arranged**.

Use the **Conversation** card at the bottom of the page to share your availability with the
club and the coach:

1. Type your message in the **Write a message…** box.
2. Select the send arrow, or press <kbd>Enter</kbd>. Press <kbd>Shift</kbd> + <kbd>Enter</kbd> to start a new line.

## 2. Accept a proposed time [#2-accept-a-proposed-time]

When the club suggests a time, your reservations list shows &#x2A;*Proposed:** followed by that
time. The booking shows **Proposal awaiting your acceptance** and a **Time proposed** card with
the date, the **Total** and what happens next:

* **Confirmed on acceptance.** The lesson is confirmed as soon as you accept.
* **Payment due after acceptance.** The lesson is then **Booked — payment due** until you
  pay it. See [Pay a reservation](/en/guide/members/reservations-and-coaching#3-pay-a-reservation).

A **Free** label means the club offers the session. Select **Accept proposed time** to
book it. In **My upcoming reservations**, a booking with a proposal waiting shows **Review
proposal**.

If the time does not suit you, write to the club in the conversation. When the club moves a
booking that already had a time, the card reads **New time proposed** and offers **Keep my
current time**. A proposal that has passed shows **Proposal expired**: select **Ask for a
new time** to write to the club.

## 3. Read your coach's profile [#3-read-your-coachs-profile]

When a coach answers from their own account, their name appears at the top of the
conversation with **View profile**. It opens their biography and qualifications, with the
date each one expires. A qualification past its date shows **Expired**. Select **Back to
conversation** to return.
