FAQs

How long are lessons?

The majority of our students stick with half-hour weekly lessons. This is the industry standard, and for most is the perfect amount of time. We recommend almost everyone starts here. Once you've had some half-hour lessons, and you feel like you or your child need, or would like some extra time, we can offer 45 minute and 60 minute lessons as well. See above for pricing.

Is there a long-term commitment required when I get signed up?

Our lessons are paid for monthly! There's no need to sign up for a semester or 3 or 6 month term. However, this does not mean that you have to find a new time for your lessons every month. Your time will stay the same unless you need to change it.

Do I need an instrument when starting?

We do recommend that students have something to practice on at home to make the most of their lessons. This instrument does not have to be super high quality or a huge investment when you're first starting out. As a student progresses, their teacher can help guide them towards the next steps when it's applicable. However, we do offer a rental program for piano, guitar, violin, and ukulele if you don't have an instrument at home or are not ready to commit in buying an instrument right away!

Do students need to have a method book?

Because all of our lessons are personalized for each student, the method books used, or if any method books are used, will depend on the student, their instrument, their goals, their learning style, etc. The student's teacher will communicate if/when a method book will be needed. We often can get this method book for you, and then just add the cost to your account for the following month. Method books are typically around $8.

What happens if I have to cancel?

With everyone having busy schedules, we're happy to be as flexible as possible with our customers! As long as a lesson is cancelled 6 hours or more before it's scheduled, you will receive a Make Up Lesson Service Credit. This credit never expires, and can be used to find a make up time with your teacher, or another teacher of the same instrument.

More detailed information is available on the FAQ page of our website.

Have you always wanted to learn drums but live in an apartment or duplex? Don't let that stop you! These days instead of feeling like stiff rubber pads that feel and sound awkward, new electronic drum sets are designed to feel a lot more like playing an acoustic drum set. Today's electronic drum sets are built with a type of drum head, so the stick has a nice bounce and the drum responds more dynamically to your playing. Many of my drum students use one to practice at home! Need help picking out the perfect drum set for your drum lessons with me? Give me a call today for a free consultation and I'll help you pick out the best electronic or acoustic drum set for your practice space. Want to learn acoustic drums? I can help you pick out quieter sticks that will greatly reduce your practice volume at home, while providing a great feel and bounce.
