Lesson Duration and Cost:
- Weekly lessons are available in two durations, 30-minute lessons and 60-minute lessons. Please contact me for pricing.
Payment Policy
- Tuition is billed monthly and reserves your dedicated lesson time.
- Invoices are sent at the beginning of each month and are due by the 10th of that month.
- Payments can be made via Venmo, PayPal, cash, or check.
- Lessons must be paid for regardless of attendance, as your time is reserved exclusively for you.
Absences and Makeups
- If you need to cancel a lesson, please provide at least 24 hours’ notice to receive a makeup credit.
- Makeup credits can be used to reschedule a future lesson but cannot be applied toward tuition for future months.
- Lessons canceled with less than 24 hours’ notice will be charged and are not eligible for a makeup credit.
- No-shows are considered forfeited lessons.
Grace Lesson Policy
- Each student is granted one (1) grace lesson per calendar year.
- This grace lesson can be used to waive the charge for a missed lesson or a cancellation with less than 24 hours’ notice.
- If you would like to use your grace lesson, just let me know when the situation arises.
- After the grace lesson has been used, all missed lessons without proper notice will be charged according to the standard cancellation policy.
Vacation Policy
- Each student receives two (2) vacation credits per year.
- Vacation credits allow you to miss up to two scheduled lessons without charge, provided you notify me before invoices are sent for that month.
- Additional planned absences beyond the two credits will be billed as usual, but a makeup credit will be provided with at least 24 hours’ notice under the normal Absences and Makeups policy.
Illness Policy
- If you are feeling unwell, please notify me as soon as possible.
- While the standard 24-hour cancellation policy applies, I am committed to being flexible in cases of illness. Makeup credits may be granted at my discretion depending on the situation.
- If you are mildly ill but still feel up to playing, you have the option to take your lesson via Zoom instead of in person. Please just let me know ahead of time so we can make arrangements.
Teacher Absences
- If I need to cancel a lesson, I will provide as much advance notice as possible.
- In the event of a teacher cancellation, you will have the option to reschedule or receive a credit toward the following month.
Withdrawal Policy
- Students may withdraw from lessons at any time.
- If a student withdraws partway through a month, a prorated refund will be given for any unused, prepaid lessons.
- No refund will be given for lessons that have already taken place.
- Please provide as much notice as possible if you plan to discontinue lessons.
