Beginning Piano Lessons
"In order to be very good at something, one must first be willing to be very bad at something."
What to expectThank you for your interest in beginning piano lessons! I give piano lessons out of my private residence and I am available by appointment. My preferred lesson days are on Sunday and Monday afternoons/evenings, but I am also available in the evening on other days. I will be more than happy to work with you on times. You can set up a trial lesson with me to see if piano lessons are good for you. Once you have decided to continue piano lessons, you can reserve a lesson time for 4 weeks at a time. The payment for this reservation is due at the first lesson after the trial period and every four weeks thereafter.
Missed Lesson Policy Please call me as soon as possible when you know you will miss a lesson. Missed lessons will still be paid for regardless of attendance. Remember, you are paying for a reservation of a lesson time. However, things happen that we just cannot plan for. As such, you are allowed two free make up sessions every six months. Tuition 30-minute session: $18/ trial lesson, $72/4-weeks 45-minute session: $25/trial lesson, $100/4-weeks 60-minute session: $35/trial lesson, $140/4-weeks Master Classes As part of the piano lesson tuition, students are invited to master classes! We will have a master class on a Saturday every two months. This class will involve all the students. We will play our favorite pieces for each other, listen to music, play group music, and play musical games. Recitals Recitals will occur once a year and will include all students of the studio. This is a great time for students to show case their talent for family and friends. Learning SupplementsThe following link is a great place for the student to go to get extra practice learning the names of notes, reading rhythms, and learning the placement of the notes on the keyboard! http://www.emusictheory.com/practice.html
