Frequently asked questions
What is your typical process for working with a new student?
At the first meeting we get to know one another. The teacher does a skills evaluation to determine what the student already knows. After which we talk about the types of music the student likes, how serious the student is about learning, and where the student hopes to be musically a year down the road. Only then do we start making a lesson plan. This is also the time for students and their parents to ask any questions about the studio policies, practice time, and the student handbook. Our First lesson is always free of charge.
What education and/or training do you have that relates to your work?
