Music Lesson Policies

Payment Policy:
Registration fee and monthly tuition are due at the time of registration. Tuition is due on the first lesson of each month. Drop-In class payments are due at the time of the class. Regular attendance is necessary for musical growth. There are no refunds nor is the next month’s tuition credited for missed or cancelled lessons. If a lesson is cancelled at least 24 hours in advance of the lesson time, the lesson may be rescheduled. A lesson will be rescheduled only once. The lesson must be rescheduled and taken within two weeks of the cancelled lesson. It is the student’s responsibility to call to reschedule the lesson.  We are limited to 3 reschedules per semester.  Lessons that are canceled by the teacher will be rescheduled or credited.
NO REFUNDS ON PAYMENTS MADE.

There is a $10 late fee for payments made after the first lesson of the month unless other payment arrangements have been made. 

There is a $25 returned check fee.

Class Drop Policy:
If you decide to discontinue lessons we require that you give us one month’s notice so that we may fill your lesson time the following month.
If you do not give us adequate notice you will be responsible for the next month’s tuition.

Other Important Information:
Students are expected to show up on time for class.  If the student is late, class time cannot be extended and the class will end at the normal class time.

You arrive on time;
Your guitar is tuned prior to the lesson;
Your left hand (or right hand for lefties) finger nails are trimmed;
