Policies

Important Information for Piano Students

There are several important policies for my piano students:

Age
In order to be eligible for lessons, students must be at least 6 years of age, or enrolled in Kindergarten.
Cancellations
Lessons must be cancelled at least 24 hours in advance to be eligible for rescheduling. If there are extenuating circumstances, decisions regarding rescheduling will be at my discretion.
Home Practice
It will be very important for all piano students practice assigned music at home. Please be guided by the following information regarding the amount of time that students should spend practicing each week:
  • Elementary School students should practice 15-20 minutes per day,
    6 days a week.
  • Middle School students should practice 30 minutes per day,
    6 days a week.
  • High School students should practice 45-60 minutes,
    6 days a week.
Tuition
During the school year each student will receive 35 lessons.
All 35 lessons are 45 minutes and the rates are as follows:
Payments may be made annually or monthly.
Fall Semester (16 lessons)
Spring Semester (19 lessons)
Total: $1710/year ($190 for 9 months)
Music and Instructional Material
Music, books, and other instructional material are purchased throughout the year using funds from registration fee funds. The method books that I use are Piano Adventures published by FJH Music company, and The Music Tree published by Alfred.
