PIANO LESSONS
•
WEEKLY: Lessons are held every week for 30-minute session. All students are expected to prepare and practice
for each session while at home. If a student is out longer than (2) two weeks, a deposit will be required to hold
designated appointed time slot. Students are expected to arrive on time for each lesson. Late arrivals will be
allotted the remaining time of their lesson. If you miss or cancel a lesson without advance notification which is
less than (24) twenty-four hours, your payment will be non-refundable. If missed and/or no show after two
weeks, student's reserved time will be cancelled and you will have to re-register for a fee of $25.00.
•
HOLIDAYS AND VACATION: Piano Keys for Christ will be closed on the following holidays: Memorial Day,
Independence Day, Labor Day, Thanksgiving Day and December 25th-January 1st. Schedules may need to be
adjusted during these weeks to accommodate the holiday schedule.
•
PRACTICE: Successful practice is a joint effort among teacher; student and his/her parent. It is a must for each
student on a regular basis to practice to get the best results. Parents should provide an atmosphere at home
that will promote efficient learning and help the student look forward to a routine practice schedule. Time must
be set aside consistently for practicing rather than trying to play “catch up” just before coming to lessons. A
minimum of 15-20 minutes for 3 days is mandatory for each week. This time may be expanded by the teacher
based on the student’s level of performance.
•
TERMINATION OF LESSONS: Every effort will be made to retain all students. Most often when a student
cancels or terminates piano lessons, it is avoidable. In such case, at least a 30- day written notice must be given
to the teacher. If a student leaves without prior notice, there will be a penalty fee accessed in the amount of $50
non-refundable return fee.
