What happens if I can’t make a lesson?

Due to a very heavy schedule, make-up lessons will only be available due to sickness, emergencies, and inclement weather only. If the student has had a fever or been vomiting within 24 hours of his/her lesson, please call or email to reschedule as soon as you can! I am okay with student’s minor colds, but if you are sick, please stay home and get better.
It is your job to arrange makeup lessons which are owed to you. Make-ups must be rescheduled within one month or are forfeited.

If something comes up?
Life happens. I understand. However, it is your job to call me 48 hours in advance of your scheduled lesson.

Going on vacation?
You will NOT receive credit for vacations during the school year. I cannot fill your slot for the week you are gone; no one takes single piano lessons.

Time off?
If you decide you need to take the time off lessons, I cannot hold your slot. You can have first priority on the waiting list however. If you choose to pay for the time taken off, you may keep your slot.

Oops! I forgot my lesson!
I DO NOT reschedule or credit for forgotten lessons. Again, I have a heavily booked schedule. I am here waiting, regardless of what you are doing.

What if I can’t take lessons anymore?
I request a 2-week notice (or payment) for termination of lessons. This gives me time to fill your slot. If you become unemployed or have some other unforeseeable circumstances, please let me know and we can figure something out.

NOTE: I reserve the right to dismiss any student for serious behavioral

concerns or delinquency in payments.
