All lessons to take place in student's home with a parent or responsible adult carer present in the home throughout each lesson
A regular weekly lesson day/time will be agreed, which will be adhered to during state school term time (lessons to take place as usual on mid-term school training days but no lessons will be scheduled on public holidays or half terms)
You need to have a piano or keyboard in your own home
The first lesson is an introduction or assessment. I will provide music for an introductory (beginners) lesson; the student should provide music for an assessment (non-beginner's/improver's) lesson
The first lesson is to be paid for on the day, when two copies of this document will be supplied
Any remaining lessons of the half of term are to be paid for on or before the day of the second lesson and one copy of this document should be signed and returned with payment (the second copy should be kept for your reference). Subsequent payment for half-termly blocks of lessons will be due on or before the first lesson of the next block, by which time any changes in regular lesson days/times need to have been agreed
Regrettably I have to charge for lessons missed by students, but it may be possible to rearrange an occasional lesson if reasonable notice is given. If I have to miss a lesson for any reason I will credit it to the next half-termly block
Exam fees will be invoiced when needed (payable within a week of receipt of invoice)
I am happy to give general advice regarding rental or purchase of an instrument when needed
