Registration for Lessons

General Rules - students wash their hands with a soap just before touching the piano so that anything on the hands before will be clean. This is a must, because I see the white piano keyboard gets dirty. Please constantly cut your finger nails for the sake of a good hand posture, no manicure please when you come to piano lessons as the bits will stay on the keyboard. 

If you are (any kind of) sick, we can easily switch to on-line lessons. Please don't hesitate to ask. 

During the lessons, when student(s) and I agree with wearing masks if one of us has any kind of cold symptoms. We need your honesty and kindness toward others. 

General Information about the lessons 

Fall session (16 lessons over 18 weeks)  from August 21 until December 22 (Approx. November 2-15 no lesson)

Winter session (20 lessons over 22-23 weeks) from Jan 8 until the 2nd (or 3rd) Sunday of June (Breaks TBA)

Students’ Recital: the 2nd Sunday of June (subject to change)

Missed lessons, cancellation of lessons and withdrawals

The missed lessons won’t be made-up if the student didn’t let the teacher know 48 hours prior to the lesson. I prefer not to judge reasons for cancellation. Therefore, there is no exception for this rule. Please don't ask me for a make up lesson when you are late or you forget your lesson. However, for the missed lessons with the proper notice, students will be able to take them within the same academic year. With a month notice, students can stop taking lessons.

Method of payment

 2 payments (each semester) or 9 equal instalments

There will be 36 lessons in total. The tuition includes the fee for a part of our student recital, administrative work and lesson planning, and a part of piano maintenance. Those of you who cannot take 36 lessons per year, tuition will be calculated according to my regular $75/hour rate.

Example:

A payment "plan" will be arranged which the payment should arrive at the 1st day of the month each month from September to May. 

Post-dated check or E-transfer should be dated on the 1st of each month.
