FAQs
- What should the customer know about your pricing (e.g., discounts, fees)?
I offer lessons at $70 an hour, $40 for half hour lessons which I only do with younger students under age 12. I offer a small discount to $65 a lesson if you come every week and commit to a specific time that I can put in my calendar. I do appreciate the commitment and it makes scheduling much easier for all of us.
- What education and/or training do you have that relates to your work?
I'm still taking lessons and study and practice every week. I'm still out there digging and that requires my constant commitment to keeping up my skills as well as adding new ones. If you're not growing as a musician, you're in big trouble.
- How did you get started doing this type of work?
I knew I would be professional musician by the age of 10 and knew I would be a music instructor by the time I was in high school, so I took my practicing and own lessons very seriously. Music is a calling and an identity that is bigger than a normal profession because it really defines the way you live and see the world.
