FAQs
- What should the customer know about your pricing (e.g., discounts, fees)?
Lessons are 30 minutes long ($30) or 45 minutes long ($45), depending on the student's age and experience.
- What is your typical process for working with a new customer?
Typically, I offer the option of a trial period where the students come and take 2 lessons with me (At the first lesson, the student pays the tuition for the first 2 lessons). After the "trial period" the student determines whether or not they think that the student-teacher match up is a good fit.
- What education and/or training do you have that relates to your work?
I hold two degrees in music: Bachelor of Music degree in Violin Performance from Western Illinois University in Macomb, IL in addition to a Master of Arts degree in Violin Performance from the University of Iowa. I am also a Suzuki Method Certified Violin Teacher with courses training in Suzuki Violin Books 1-3.
