Families in Uzbekistan pay for CurioKids in US dollars, and the three plans differ only in how many lessons fill your child's week: 1, 2 or 3 live, 1-to-1 lessons of 25 minutes, billed every 4 weeks or weekly. There's a free first lesson, and you won't need a card to book it. This guide covers how a card in som pays a dollar price, what each plan includes, how billing fits a school year starting in September, when lessons suit a week in Uzbekistan, and how to compare the cost with language centres and tutors.

Key takeaways
- CurioKids prices for Uzbekistan are in US dollars; a card in som is charged in dollars and your bank does the conversion.
- The plans, Starter, Growth and Accelerator, differ only in lessons a week; each lesson is live, 1-to-1 and 25 minutes long.
- Billing in 4-week periods gives every payment the same number of lessons, term time or holidays.
- Uzbekistan doesn't change its clocks, so an after-school slot keeps the same time all year.
- Your child's first lesson is free, and no card is needed to book it.

How much do CurioKids lessons cost in Uzbekistan?
Choosing a plan comes down to one question: how many lessons a week? Starter has 1, Growth has 2 and Accelerator has 3. In each case your child has a real teacher to themselves, live on video, for 25 minutes.
Plans for families in Uzbekistan cost US$33, US$55 or US$77 every 4 weeks for 1, 2 or 3 lessons a week, from US$6.42 per lesson. Every plan can be paid weekly instead.

Per lesson, the price drops as the plan grows, so Accelerator is the lowest per lesson and Starter the lowest in total. There are no books to buy and no charge for the online classroom.
Which currency do families in Uzbekistan pay in?
Plans for families in Uzbekistan are priced in US dollars. The country you select when creating your parent account fixes the currency, and the dollar amount you see on your plan is the amount charged. If your card is in Uzbek som, your bank converts the dollar amount at its own rate, and the figure on your statement in som may vary a little from one payment to the next.
Payments run through Stripe, so CurioKids never sees your full card number. If you're unsure whether your card works for international payments, your bank can tell you.
What is included in each plan?
Every plan includes the same: live, 1-to-1, 25-minute lessons with a real teacher for children aged 4 to 12, in the CurioKids online classroom with video, an interactive whiteboard, lesson slides and games. Most children start with Phonics Starter, our 52-lesson reading course, then move through CEFR-based levels Pre-A1, A1 and A2. Teachers give feedback after lessons, you follow progress in your parent dashboard, and there is no charge for materials. See our curriculum and safety pages.
A child who reads Uzbek already knows the Latin letters, but some, like x and q, sound quite different in English. The reading course shows which sounds are the same and which are new, so familiar letters stop tripping your child up. Our curriculum is our own and isn't linked to any exam in Uzbekistan.
How does billing every 4 weeks fit the school year in Uzbekistan?
In Uzbekistan the school year generally begins in September and ends with a long summer holiday, with shorter breaks in between; your child's school has the exact dates. A 4-week billing period always holds the same number of lessons, whether it covers a 28-day February or a 31-day March.
Plans bill every 4 weeks, not by calendar month, so every billing period has the same number of lessons: 13 payments a year. Every plan can be paid weekly instead, and paying every 4 weeks costs less than four weekly payments. You're charged when you subscribe and then at the start of each billing period. Your price is locked on your subscription, so future price changes don't affect you. You can change plan or cancel anytime, and cancel a single lesson up to 2 hours before it starts.
For a family visit during Navruz in March, or a trip in the summer, cancel only the lessons your child will miss. If exams or extra school activities fill the spring, you can drop to Starter for a few weeks.
When would lessons happen in Uzbekistan time?
When you book, every lesson time is shown in Uzbekistan time. The clocks don't change in Uzbekistan, so the slot you pick at the start of the school year stays the same through winter and spring. A 25-minute lesson usually fits after school, somewhere between about 4pm and 8pm, between homework and the evening meal.
Saturday or Sunday mornings are a good alternative, especially for younger children who are tired by the evening. Our guide to online lessons across time zones has more on choosing a time.
Which plan suits a child in Uzbekistan?
Think about which languages fill your child's day, Uzbek, Russian, perhaps Tajik or Karakalpak, and how much English they already hear:
- Starter, 1 lesson a week: a child who has English at school and wants a weekly chance to speak it with a teacher, without adding pressure to a full week.
- Growth, 2 lessons a week: a child learning to read English, who benefits from meeting the tricky letters again a few days later.
- Accelerator, 3 lessons a week: a child keen to catch up quickly who hears little English outside lessons, if their energy allows.
You can switch plans whenever you like. Our guide how many English lessons a week does my child need? talks it through, and online English lessons for children in Uzbekistan covers school English and the Latin alphabet.
How does the cost compare with language centres and tutors in Uzbekistan?
In Tashkent and other cities, families often choose between a group course at a language centre, a private tutor, or online lessons. A fair comparison looks past the monthly fee to what the money buys:
- How many lessons a month you get, how long each one lasts, and the cost of one lesson.
- The size of the group, and how much of each lesson your child spends talking.
- Whether missed lessons are lost, moved or refunded.
- Extra costs such as textbooks, workbooks or a joining fee.
- Travel time to the centre or tutor, and who has to take your child there.
Sharing a teacher with a group usually makes each hour cheaper; a 1-to-1 lesson means your child speaks far more. Our guide 1-to-1 or group English classes: which suits my child? looks at both.
Can my child try a free first lesson in Uzbekistan?
Yes. Create a parent account, add your child and book, and no card is asked for. In the 25-minute lesson the teacher gets your child talking, checks their reading and sets a starting level, for children aged 4 to 12. Afterwards you choose whether to carry on; if not, there is nothing to pay.
CurioKids opens to one country at a time. If lessons for families in Uzbekistan haven't opened yet, a waitlist shows where the prices will be. Our guide on what to look for in a free first lesson explains what to notice.
Where can I see the prices and join the waitlist?
Visit our Uzbekistan page to see how lessons work and, once lessons for families in Uzbekistan open, to book your child's free first lesson; until then it has a waitlist, and we'll let you know when you can book. Once they open, the prices for Uzbekistan also show any current offer and its terms.

Frequently asked questions
Why are CurioKids prices for Uzbekistan in dollars, not som?
Plans for families in Uzbekistan are priced in US dollars. If you pay with a card in som, your bank converts each payment at its own rate, so the amount on your statement can vary slightly.
Does my child need to read English before starting?
No. Most children begin with the reading course, which starts from letter sounds. A child who already reads English can be placed in a CEFR-based level after the free first lesson.
Can we pause lessons for Navruz or the summer?
Cancel the single lessons you'll miss, up to 2 hours before each starts, and your plan carries on. You can also switch to a smaller plan, or cancel at the end of the billing period.
Are CurioKids lessons linked to school exams in Uzbekistan?
No. CurioKids follows its own CEFR-based curriculum and isn't linked to any local exam. The speaking, listening and reading your child builds still help with English at school.
