- PRACTICE
- I suggest that the student practice 15 to 60 minutes a day for five or six days a week, depending on the level of the student. Some may think that practice is not necessary for development. But this is far from the truth!
- If, on rare occasions, the student has not practiced for the weekly lesson, please communicate this to me at the beginning of the lesson.
- Lack of practice is no excuse for missing a lesson. I expect to teach every week. If the student has not practiced in the prior week, I will use the lesson as a practice time and for other learning activities.
- RECITALS: All students are strongly encouraged to participate in the Fall and Spring Recitals.
- COMMUNICATION: Regular dialog and communication is important for the progress and positive experience of the student. If you have any questions or concerns, I will gladly discuss it with you. Please contact me at your convenience.
- DISCONTINUATION: One month’s notice is required if you or your child desire to discontinue piano lessons.
