- Scheduling Of Lessons
|
The scheduled day and the time of Student�s weekly lessons will not
undergo changes for the remainder of the term unless an arrangement
is made between the Teacher and the Student well in advance.
The Student should expect a lesson every week, with the exception
of (1) any holiday listed in the above calendar, and (2) a cancellation made by the Teacher.
|
- Duration Of Enrollment
Students who enroll in the Fall-Winter-Spring Term are expected to take
lessons continuously throughout the term. They are also expected to take
at least four lessons during the following Summer Term, or make a four-lesson
payment, if they wish to enroll in the next Fall-Winter-Spring Term.
If the Student discontinues his/her study during the year, he/she will not
be guaranteed a readmission to the class. One month�s notice with a payment
is required if study is discontinued.
|
- Cancelling Of Lessons / Missed Lessons
No deduction will be made if the Student cancels or misses his/her
lesson for any reason. Makeup lessons will not be allowed.
If the Teacher cancels or misses a lesson, the Student may choose
between a makeup lesson and a full refund.
|
- Sheet Music
|
Students will be required to purchase their music.
A local sheet music store will be suggested by the Teacher.
In some instances, sheet music may be purchased directly from the Teacher.
|
- Recitals / Competitions / Masterclasses / Camps
|
In January and June, the Teacher will organize a student recital
in which qualified students will be encouraged to perform.
Selected students will also have an opportunity to participate
in various auditions, competitions, and master classes organized
by the Music Teacher�s Association. The Teacher will inform her
students about various summer music camps.
|
- Practicing And Progress
|
The expected amount of daily practice is different for every student as
it depends on his/her goals and priorities. Each student, therefore,
will work and progress at his/her own rate and will not be compared to the others.
In general, students are expected to practice at least five days a week,
where each daily practice session is as long or longer than his/her weekly lesson.
Parents will be encouraged to help the Student establish and maintain a workable
schedule for practice. The Student should practice on a piano that is in tune and
in good working condition. The Teacher reserves the right to discontinue working with
the Student, at any time, if he/she continuously fails to meet the minimum practice
requirements, in which case the Student will be refunded for his/her prepaid lessons (if any).
|
- Lesson Fees / Tuition
Tuition is charged on a monthly basis, payable in advance at the first lesson of the
month, where each monthly payment is calculated as follows:
LESSON FEE x
THE NUMBER OF LESSONS IN THAT MONTH
If the Student cancels or misses the first scheduled lesson of the month, the payment must be received no later than the second lesson of that month;
a $20 late fee will be charged for a delayed payment.
