Piano Studio Policies:
1. Weekly Lessons:
I teach 30, 45, or 60 minute piano lessons, Monday-Friday! I currently offer lessons to elementary, middle school, high school, and adult students. Lessons will be held at my "Alpine Acoustics" Piano Studio located in Bothell, Washington or online on Zoom.
2. Monthly Tuition:
Tuition is due the first lesson of each month. I will send an invoice to include any additional books or competition fees.
I charge tuition by the "session," which includes 4 lessons.
60 minute, weekly lessons (4): $280 / month
45 minute, weekly lessons (4): $210 / month
30 minute, weekly lessons (4): $140 / month
3. Required Materials:
Students will be required to have a fully function and well-tuned piano or 88-key weighted keyboard to practice their pieces at home. Students must bring their sheet music and theory books to each lesson. I recommend that students practice 4-5 days a week at home as their progress is determined by consistent practice and not by attending lessons alone.
4. New Student Interviews:
Before scheduling lessons at my studio I would love to meet you and offer a complimentary first lesson! This gives you the opportunity to learn more about my teaching style and what I offer in piano lessons.
5. Competition & Performance Opportunities:
As a member of Washington State Music Teachers Association (WSMTA), Snohomish County Music Teachers Association (SCMTA), and Edmonds Music Teachers Association (EMTA), my students have the opportunity to participate in local chapter and state festivals as well as share their music at studio recitals! I do not require participation in these events, but offer them as opportunities for learning and setting goals each year in music.
