Guidelines

1.     Classes are generally scheduled on weekday evenings or weekends. Lessons are given to a small group of students per class to ensure individual attention to kids.

      2.     In addition to covering the materials in the book, the students will also be taught Bhajans and songs periodically. Teaching sincerely with clarity to inspire the students to love music is the motto of Malola Vihar Music School.

      3.     Students in a batch are matched up based on their prior expertise and sruthi gnanam. However, based on their level of progression and musical aptitude students may be assigned to a different batch to match their suitable level.

      4.     Classes will start end on time. Students must be on time to the class. Missed portions of the class will not be repeated.

      5.     The payment structure will be month to month rather than pay per class. What this means is that there will be a flat fees structure per month, irrespective of the number of weeks. For example, if a month has 5 weeks as opposed to 4, the fees will remain the same.

      6.     Tuition: The following fees structure will be followed –

a.     Level 1: Basic  - $80/month

b.     Level 2: Advanced - $100/month

      7.     Tuition is neither refundable nor transferable. No compensatory classes will be given to the students who are absent from classes due to personal reasons. 

      8.     A student that takes prolonged vacation may be readmitted only if there is an open spot.

      9.     Full fees for that month are due on the first class payable as cash only. Checks are not accepted.

      10.  Make-ups and cancellation: Classes cancelled due to teacher’s absence or weather-related will be made-up. Every effort will be made to announce cancellations as early as possible.

      11.  Termination of Lessons:  Two weeks’ notice is required to discontinue any lessons. Withdrawal must be done in person and will not be accepted over the phone.
