PRACTICE & PERFORMANCE POLICY

A practice journal is to be used to both assign and monitor practicing activities. In addition to practicing, students will be given listening and concert attendance assignments.
Students are required to take part in a solo performance every six months. This can be accomplished by region/area/all-state auditions, UIL solo and ensemble competitions, or by participation in a studio recital.

PARENTS: It is the parent’s responsibility to help their child make practicing a part of their daily routine and to ensure that the student has a place where they can practice with minimum distractions.
 
The instructor reserves the right to terminate instruction for students who are consistently unprepared for lessons or who are unwilling to practice as prescribed.

ATTENDANCE & MAKE-UP POLICY

Students are expected to arrive to their lessons early enough to get set up and begin on time. If the lesson begins late due to the student coming in late, this time will not be made up later. If the student arrives to the lesson 15 minutes late or more, the lesson is cancelled. No refund will be given.

If a lesson needs to be rescheduled, you must notify me at least 24 hours in advance.

If the student is sick, please send email or text me ASAP before school starts, and I will give the makeup lesson or credit for missing lesson.
 
In order to ensure their continued musical development, students are strongly encouraged to take lessons over the summer when they are in town.

NEW STUDENT POLICY

In order to ensure that student and teacher are the right match for each other, an interview might be conducted via phone or in person before the first lesson.
