FAQs
- What should the customer know about your pricing (e.g., discounts, fees)?
I generally charge $50 an hour for lessons, but I am willing to work with those of lower income families on a case by case basis.
- What is your typical process for working with a new customer?
Typically the first lesson is a "get to know the player" lesson. I assess skill level and what the player would like to get out of the lessons as well as set goals for improving the players understanding of scales and keys.
- What education and/or training do you have that relates to your work?
I took private jazz lessons for eight years with Bob Hamilton, a professional jazz player I'm the Chicago area. I have since 2001 played professionally all over the southeastern United States in rock, funk, reggae, jazz, big band, orchestra and christian music bands.
