FAQs
- What should the customer know about your pricing (e.g., discounts, fees)?
I need time to teach so that the students will LOVE playing their instrument. I teach for 60 minutes and my rate is $75 per hour. If there are two children taking lessons, then I can reduce the time to 45 minutes each. There is never a need to pay for any books, sheet music, or other materials. I will provide what is needed to learn.
- What is your typical process for working with a new customer?
My process is to speak on the phone and review the options that you have with me for taking lessons. I enjoy understanding what you as the customer are seeking. I will then explain in detail what approaches have worked in the past and ask if you think this might work for you. We'll set realistic goals and before long music will fill your living space!
- What education and/or training do you have that relates to your work?
BA in Music Theory and Composition. Minor concentration in performance (piano and cello). Started piano lessons when I was 5. Played in orchestras since grade school. Also throughout college and beyond. Played in chamber music groups. Can coach for auditions and will help prepare students to achieve placement goals.
