Fall 2024 - 30 Minute Lesson Policy​​

  • The cost of the full Fall Semester is $560, plus a $60 Materials Fee.  You may divide the semester cost into 4 payments (due the first lesson of Sept/Oct/Nov/Dec). Tuition will be prorated if you begin after September 3, 2024.

  • If you chose to pay the full semester balance by Sept. 8, you will reduce your cost by $35. 

  • The Fall Semester includes 14 events: 12 private lessons (30-minute), 1 group class, and 1 performance.

  • Payment is accepted in cash, check, PayPal, or Venmo. Payment in cash or check is preferred.

  • A $25 late fee will be assessed if your payment is not received on or before the first lesson of the month, and lessons will not resume the 2nd week if payment has not been made.

  • Materials, books, sheet music, festival fees, and late payment charges will be deducted from your student's Materials Fee Account.  The balance of this account will be brought up to $60 at the beginning of the fall and spring semesters.  New families will see this $60 charge on their first invoice. 

  • I do not offer make-up lessons.  If your child is ill or unable to attend their lesson in person, you have the option of switching to an online lesson (Zoom) that will be held at your child's regular lesson time.  

  • If being online is not possible, you may send a video to me of a piece your child is working on. I will send back a written response.

  • If I am ill, you will be offered an online lesson.  If I an unable to teach, you will be issued a lesson credit.

  • Students are expected to practice at home at least 3-5 days a week.

  • A parent may attend the lesson the first 2 weeks only.  

  • You will receive an automated text message 24 hours before every scheduled event.

  • Failure to follow these stated policies may result in being dismissed from the studio.
