Semester Commitment

If you sign up for lessons, it is expected that you will commit for the entire semester. If you choose to discontinue lessons mid-semester, I must have 30 days advance notice in writing.  If I am not notified in time, you will be responsible to pay the next month’s tuition.

  • Fall Semester: mid August – December
  • Winter/Spring Semester: January – May
  • Summer Semester: June – early August (Summer tuition will be adjusted in advance to accommodate vacations.)

Attendance

  • Tuition remains the same regardless of how many lessons you are able to attend.
  • Lessons are given 4x/month, except for December and May which will have 3 lessons.

Makeup Lessons

Makeup lessons are offered ONLY IF I am notified at least 24 hours in advance.   If I am not notified in time, you will forfeit your lesson.  If I have a conflict, I will always offer a makeup lesson.  

Health Policy

If you are sick, please DO NOT come to your lesson in person.  Contact me as soon as possible and we can do a video lesson via Google Meet or ZOOM instead. If I have more than 24 hours notice, we can discuss the option of scheduling a makeup lesson. 

COVID-19: I am fully vaccinated for Covid. 

Studio Performance Calendar

I will provide masterclasses, recitals, and festivals. You will be notified by September each year of specific performance details and dates.

Student Referral Reward

If you refer a student to me and they start flute lessons, you will receive one month of FREE tuition.
