Music Books and Materials
I will choose books for students based on level and age. You can buy the books yourselves or I can get them and you can just pay for them.
All students will require a lesson book, theory book, and dictation book. Additional materials such as a notespeller book and technique book may be required.
Instrument
Keyboards are acceptable for beginner students but not recommended. Those who have a keyboard are strongly encouraged to have an 88 key keyboard with a pedal.
Once students are at the intermediate level it is strongly recommended they have an electric or acoustic piano so they will have a better chance for success.
Communications
Contact with me will be primary managed through text (parent) or email (anyone).
Cancellation Policy
If I cannot do lessons on the day they are supposed to be I will find a time to reschedule that works for everyone. If this is not possible they will be deducted from your next month's payment.
If you need to cancel a lesson please give at least 2 hours notice so your lesson can be deducted from next month's payment or rescheduled. Lessons missed with no notice (no shows) will not be refunded or rescheduled.
Storm Days/Holidays
Lessons will run as usual during school storm days if it is safe to do so. If not they will be rescheduled or deducted from next month's payment.
Lessons will run as usual on PD days.
Lessons will NOT run on holidays. They will either be rescheduled or deducted from next month's payment.
Payment
Please pay for lessons via e-transfer, on a monthly basis, in advance.
