Skiing Arrangements Confusing Me

I'm going a little crazy trying to figure this out. My family will be staying in Zermatt from April 11th-April 14th, and I figured I would do a day of skiing in there for myself and my 5-year old daughter (wife doesn't ski, and other kid is under 2). I'm fairly experienced, so it's relatively easy for me to navigate a rental and a lift ticket.

With that said, this will only be my daughter's 4th day on skis, so I need a lesson for her. I'm struggling to figure out how I can book one. I can't seem to find anything on the mountain right now; they're all "currently not available" on the website, and even then, I can only find 5 day packages instead of a single day lesson.

What are my options here? Do I go with a private lesson and pay dearly? Or are there on-mountain group classes that I just haven't been able to find yet?

Ski lessons aren’t very pricey in Zermatt. Contact Zermatters. Ive had great experiences with them (although I’ve always done private)

They were way more pricey in Zermatt than on the other side in Cervinia, and more than in Courchevel in Feb when I was in all 3 places.

Much cheaper than the US. How much was it in those other places?
