- Each Student has been given a weekly, reserved time slot. You are paying for your teacher's time.
- You are paying for not only your scheduled lesson times, but for the time your instructor spends planning and preparing for your lesson each week outside of that time.
- Monthly Tuition is all inclusive; you pay the same tuition, whether you start in September or May.
- Please notice that there are 36 lessons built into the studio calendar for each weekly student.
- However, you are only paying for 34 - so you receive 2 FLEX LESSONS to accommodate for missed lessons. You can use them anyway you wish (illness, activity, etc.). A 24-hour notice is appreciated.
- If you do not use your FLEX LESSONS, you get those lessons as EXTRA LESSONS.
- The studio provides 3 other ways (BY STUDENT/PARENT REQUEST ONLY) for students to make the most out of their missed lessons; in the instance that you do not want to use a FLEX LESSON:
- Let the studio know you'd like an online lesson during your normally scheduled time: on days you cannot be at the studio (let's say you are sick but still feel well enough to sing - we will set up an online lesson so that you can still get your lesson that week).
- You can request a mini-voice lesson video: a short 5-10 min. video where the teacher goes over your current repertoire and gives you ideas on what to do to stay on track and be motivated.
- You can request to be "ON DECK": the student can request to be on deck for spot (if there is an opening) the week before, during or after their scheduled lesson. It is not guaranteed but an option to request. Please note: If the week before or after is during a vacation or break, that week will not be an option.
- NO SHOWS will not be accommodated - please communicate if you will miss.
- Students who miss too many lessons, and are clearly not able to maintain consistent attendance, will lose their time slot (after fair warning).
- Please do not come to lessons sick. Students who are sick will be sent home. If you feel well enough to take a voice lesson, please schedule an online lesson that week.
- Also, if another person in your household who takes lessons has to miss, you are welcome to take their time slot and vice versa for the week. Please communicate with Rebekkah about this beforehand, so that she can properly plan.
- Refunds will not be offered for missed lessons.
- Please do not come to lessons sick.
- Students who come to lessons sick will be sent home.
- Drop-in students are able to set up (1) make-up lesson per reserved lesson for the purpose of student illness only.
- PLEASE NOTE: Online lessons are always available in the instance a student cannot make it to the studio in person.
