Questions About Lessons
Frequently Asked Questions
What do the music lessons consist of?
I design a custom curriculum to help the student achieve his or her goal.
How long is the lesson? And how often?
I offer weekly 30 minutes, 45 minuets, and 60 minutes lessons. 15 minutes lessons are also available for younger students.
How often should I practice?
Practice as much as you can, the progress depends on it. By practicing short sessions a few times per day you can learn fast. "Perfect practice makes perfect!"
How long does it take for me to be able to play?
It depends on how often the student practices and their ability to absorb the material. Most beginner students can play basic tunes within 3 - 6 months.
Do I have to learn everything in your curriculum? What if I just want to learn how to play?
The curriculum is an overall view for students who don't have specific goals. I can custom design curriculum towards the student's needs.
How Much do Lessons Cost?
Your first 30-minute introductory lesson is $40. Ongoing students can choose from monthly memberships based on lesson length and frequency. Visit the Pricing page for current membership options.
How does payment work for lessons?
The $40 introductory lesson is paid in advance when booking. Ongoing lessons are billed automatically each month through a lesson membership, so your regular weekly time remains reserved.
What is your cancellation policy?
Please provide at least 24 hours’ notice whenever possible. One makeup lesson per month may be scheduled when availability allows. Same-day cancellations and missed lessons are not guaranteed a makeup, and missed lessons do not reduce the monthly membership fee. If I need to cancel, the lesson will always be made up or credited.
How do I sign up?
Start by booking a $40 introductory lesson. We’ll discuss your goals, play together, and create a personalized learning plan. After the lesson, we can choose a regular lesson time and membership option based on availability.
