Frequently asked questions
What is your typical process for working with a new student?
I believe in teaching the whole student, mind. body and spirit. Each student is unique, no one person learns in the same way. I craft the lessons to fit how they learn.

I Hold a degree in Music. I have had extensive private coaching with some of the Great performers from the Met and concert Artists and Conductors from around the world. Studying with these master teachers along with applying all this education to my 20 year career in performaing gives me an extensive educational resume.
Do you have a standard pricing system for your lessons? If so, please share the details here.
I break down the lessons into one monthly payment per month for 12 months to be paid the first lesson of each month in advance. No make-ups if I am not given a 24 hr cancelation notice. I do not teach when schools are on vacation and these dates are automatically deducted from the 12 month charge. I do require students to continue over the summer. Summer schedules are worked out by doubling up lessons to cover weeks they will be away on vacation. 24 hr. notice for makeups.
