Studio Policies and Policies Pledge
Here’s what you can expect from me…
Here are a few ways you can help in return…
Tuition and Studio Policies
*In exceptional circumstances, students who need to take a leave of absence from lessons for a short period of time may hold their lesson spot by paying half tuition for the lessons missed.
Damage to my stuff or property:
If a member of your family damages my property or equipment, out of respect for what I am trying to do, please offer to make it right. We are friends here!
Liability:
There is very little risk involved with music lessons; however I know that people have accidents and bad things can happen. Please understand that I work hard to plan all of my lessons and events so that everyone is as safe as possible. In the event something bad happens, I will be there to provide support to the best of my ability.
*Let me know if you see a way I can improve my services. I want to be my best! If I see a way to make it happen, it will.
