DOUBT
 

I should say:

What time does Emily �s lessons start? or
 
What time do Emily �s lessons start?
 
I think the second one is right. But I �m a bit confused.
 
Thanks

The second one is correct.
To use does the sentence should be: "What time does Emily start lessons/ classes?"

What time does Emily �s lesson start?  (singular lesson /does) 
What time do Emily �s lessons start? (plural lessons / do )

Yap, the 2nd one is correct.
does is for 3rd person singular, simple present, interrogative. "Lessons" is not singular , so you must say "do". "What time do Emily �s lessons start?"
