Frequently asked questions
What is your typical process for working with a new student?
I have them play their favorite piece for up to four minutes.
We discuss their past experience playing and what their goals are- as well as how much time they can devote to playing. I ask them what kind of music do they like and want to learn.
I give them a general plan of how we will proceed with room for questions.
We begin to implement the plan with a practice schedule.
The ultimate goal is to learn a piece they feel comfortable performing.
What education and/or training do you have that relates to your work?
I studied music throughout grade school,junior high,high school, and college as well as graduate school. I have performed all types of music. I have taught in many types of settings. I cater to the needs of each student.
Do you have a standard pricing system for your lessons? If so, please share the details here.
I $75.00- $100 per lesson. I am flexible about price- I can also be flexible about length of lesson. I provide discounts if two months are booked in advance. I usually have a 24 cancellation rule- I need to know in advance if they can't make a lesson.
