ABOUT TUITION
If you’ve ever researched a piano teacher, you’ve probably realized everyone runs their studio differently. Lesson length, scheduling, performance opportunities, communication, and even what happens outside the lesson can vary. It can be difficult to know what you’re actually getting for your investment. How do you decide what will be the best fit for you or your student?
My rates are structured as a semester package, rather than simply a cost-per-lesson. This allows me to provide not only weekly instruction, but also the time, resources, flexibility, and opportunities that support a student’s growth throughout the entire semester and beyond.
Benefits include:
-
12 weekly 30-minute private lessons
-
A consistent weekly lesson time reserved specifically for your student
-
Students have the opportunity to play on a quality instrument at lessons
-
Separate waiting room and restroom available for family members during lesson times
-
Flexible rescheduling when needed
-
One complimentary makeup lesson for missed lessons during the semester
-
Availability throughout the week to communicate with student/parent regarding questions, practice, or musical goals
-
Parents are welcome to be as involved as they would like. You are invited to learn alongside your student!
-
One showcase recital per semester
-
One rehearsal/performance class to prepare for recital
-
Access to other optional performance/evaluation opportunities (NFMC Theory Test, NFMC/OMTA Festival and/or OMTA Syllabus preparation)
Tuition also helps support:
-
Teacher travel expenses to and from the studio
-
Lesson planning and individual student preparation
-
Studio maintenance, including piano tuning, repertoire development, and teaching supplies
-
Subscriptions to software, curricula, and professional memberships
-
Studio administration, including communication, invoicing, scheduling, and record-keeping
-
Continuing education and professional development
STUDIO POLICIES
Before registering for lessons, I ask all families to review and sign my studio policies. These policies are designed to provide clarity and consistency for both families and myself. Having clear expectations helps the studio run smoothly, as we all know what to expect throughout the semester.
If you are considering registering for lessons, reading through these policies now can give you a clear picture of what lessons with me look like and how my studio operates. My goal is not to make the studio feel rigid or mechanical, but to create a positive, predictable, and enjoyable experience for every student and family!
