Lessons & Recitals
Piano Lessons will be scheduled weekly from September through
May.   Your child will have the opportunity to participate in various
festivals and competitions throughout the year.  Some of those
events include: Studio Festival Extravaganza, various Music
Festivals, and Music Progressions.  I will provide you with registration
information as it becomes available for the events.  Recitals and
rehearsals are also scheduled during the year.  

Tuition & Billing
Lessons will be given weekly.  Students will participate in 30 minute
lessons at a tuition rate of $48/month.  We can make other
arrangements if necessary regarding tuition.  Please feel free to
consult with me in regards to financial issues.   A $10.00 late fee
will be added to any tuition payment that is not received by the
15th of the month it is due.  There will be a $30 returned check fee
for any returned check.  Your tuition pays for attended and missed
lessons from September through May, as well as all rehearsals and
recitals.

Lesson Books & Supplies
Your child will need 2-3 books roughly every 6 months depending on
their progress.  A Practice Journal/Assignment Book will need to
be purchased at the beginning of each year.  A metronome will
need to be purchased within the first month of lessons.  Approximate
initial fees for books/supplies:  $50.00.

Missed Lessons
I plan each day on the assumption that every student will attend
their scheduled lesson time.  Make-up lessons will NOT be given.  
With a studio this size, there are limitations on time.  If you have a
conflict for your scheduled lesson time, you may swap with another
student.  I must be notified of the change 24 hours prior to the
change.  Lessons missed due to the teacher’s cancellation will be
rescheduled or a credit will be placed on your account for the
missed lesson.

Practice
Without regular practice time at home, the students will end up
practicing at their lessons, rather than refining their skills and
learning new skills.  Practice time will be recorded in the student’s
Practice Journal for special rewards or incentive programs I will
offer throughout the year.
