piano Lessons Policies

practice makes perfect

Students are expected to practice regularly at home, as much of what we do in piano lessons revolves around how to practice well.  Students in high school and younger play in one of our performance opportunities each term.  This requirement begins in the 2nd term in which the student is enrolled in piano lessons. Brand new students have the option to attend without performing.
​

scheduling policy

By taking piano lessons on a weekly basis, you are making a commitment to being present and on time to your lessons.   Lessons cancelled less than 24 hours in advance due to sickness or family emergency may be rescheduled to a makeup day.  Lessons canceled less than 24 hours in advance for other reasons will not be refunded or rescheduled.  Only one make up lesson per month may be taken. No refunds or credits will be given for missed lessons.  If I need to miss a lesson due to sickness, I will reschedule the lesson with you, or I will credit your account.  I may miss up to one lesson per semester that is not made up if I become ill and cannot teach.  
​

Discontinuing Lessons

If you would like to discontinue piano lessons, please inform me before the last lesson. Students who have paid for the entire term will receive a refund for future paid lessons minus 1.
