Policies and Tuition

  • Tuition and Payments

    Tuition covers all books and materials, and reserves your weekly time slot and studio membership.

    Rates are as follows:

    Per Term (4 months):

    30 minute lessons - $425

    45-minute lessons - $637.50

    60-minute lessons - $850

    Per Month

    30-minute lessons - $112.50/month

    45-minute lessons - $168.75/month

    60-minute lesson - $225/month

    Lessons may also be taken al la carte at a rate of $75/hour.

  • Studio Schedule

    There are 3 terms each year:

    Spring: January - April

    Summer: May - August

    Fall: September - December

    There will be no lessons on the following holidays:

    Fall break: week of Thanksgiving

    Winter Breaks: weeks of Christmas and New Year’s

    Summer Break: week of July 4th

    Since schools have varying Spring Breaks, there is no official studio Spring Break, but missed lessons for that week (whenever it is for you) are accounted for in tuition.

  • Missed Lessons

    Students who are ill should not attend in-person lessons. If you’re too sick to go to school, you are too sick for piano lessons. Please notify me via text or email as soon as possible if lessons need to be canceled due to illness.

    If I must miss a lesson, for any reason, I will notify you as far in advance as possible via text and/or email.

    Missed lessons are figured into tuition, but I will do my best to reschedule when possible.

  • Discontinuation of Lessons

    My hope is that every student would finish the term for which they are enrolled, but I understand that sometimes things come up.

    I do require 1 month’s paid notice if lessons are to be discontinued before the end of the enrollment period, and I would hope to continue lessons for that month so that we can wrap things up positively.
