Lesson Policies Last-Minute Cancellations (made within one hour) and Undeclared Absences (missing a lesson without telling me in advance) will incur the full price of the missed lesson. Three instances of Undeclared Absences warrant dismissal from my studio. Payments can be made by Cash, Check, Venmo, or Paypal:
Option 1: Per-lesson (by the time of each lesson),
or Option 2: Per-month (by the first lesson of each month).
The Lesson Environment, when I travel to a student's home, must be free from distractions and appropriate for music study. Online Lessons: Students receiving lessons digitally are responsible for their technological setup facilitating good visual and audio communication. Make-up Lessons can usually be scheduled with enough advanced notice, but are dependent on my schedule. Regarding policy changes and scheduling conflicts, I request patience from all families to work together to find what works best for everyone. Prices are subject to change only with reasonable advance notice.Back to Music Lessons InformationContact Me for Lessons! Teaching Statement: I take a lot of pride in my teaching and I place a lot of value in making sure the student is having fun and enjoying playing! I try to have a variety of music and experiences for students, Every student learns in their own way, I think of myself not only as a teacher but some times more as a coach as I come from an athletic background. Part of my goal is to encourage and motivate them in a positive and creative environment. Adie's Full Bio
