Policy and Payment information- please save this document
pOLICIES
tO BEGIN WITH....WHEN A STUDENT SIGNS UP FOR PRIVATE LESSONS, HE (OR SHE) WILL CHOOSE
EITHER A 1/2 HR. OR A 1 HR. weekly LESSON. The next step is to arrange for a day and time to start.
THAT TIME SLOT WILL BE SAVED and will belong to that student.
The piano student usually sits on the bench at the piano while the teacher sits in a chair beside him.
A voice student will probably be standing near the microphone and sometimes at the piano
IF THE STUDENT IS YOUNG, A PARENT MAY WANT TO "SIT IN" ON THE FIRST LESSON. That's understandable.
i will provide all of the books and supplies NEEDED for new students.
Piano students will be expected to own a keyboard....if not right away...then SOON.
Practice time should be a priority and should be set up for the same time, and for 30 minutes every day.
Days off
I teach piano on a year round basis
No lessons on July 4th, Thanksgiving Day, Christmas Day and New YEAr's Day
No lessons on Saturday or Sunday.
Business, as usual, ON Monday Holidays, School vacations and school cancellations.
no makeups or deduCTIONS for ANY OF THE ABove.
During the 8 or 9 weeks of the summer, I would advise you to take no more than 2 weeks away from your music lessons. So much is forgotten, otherwise. It's discouraging for the student (and, for me) to have to go back over past lessons, instead of venturing into exciting new musical challenges.
If, for any reason, a student is absent for more than 2 consecutive weeks, i WELCOME THEIR RETURN, BUT their time slot may be lost..... unless other payment arrangements have been made with me.
Make ups
i offer 3 makeups per year, per family.
24 hrs. cancellation notice is required to qualify for a makeup lesson.
It will be scheduled based on the time availability of the teacher. "No show" absences do not qualify for
a make up. Do not deduct missed lesson payments from your monthly bill
Payments
There will be no increases in payments for already existing students
Monthly payments will be paid on the first lesson day of every month. Please do not deduct for missed or cancelled lessons from your monthly Bill.
