Missed Lessons , Classes or Cancellations
If a student will be absent for any reason, please notify me by text at 801-870-3138 as soon as possible. if an alternative lesson or class time is available during the same week, I will gladly offer a makeup session, However makeup availability cannot be guaranteed.
Punctuality - Please make every effort to arrive on time. Students who arrive late will still finish at their regulary scheduled ending time, as extending lessons impacts others students schedules. Ex. Lessons is Scheduled from 4pm - 4:30. if the Student arrives at 4:10. The lesson will still conclude at 4:30pm.
Recitals and Performances - I strongly encourage all students to participate in at least one Recital or Performance each year. This helps them to grow and improve on many different skills emotionally, socially and mentally.
Questions and Concerns - If you have any questions please reach out!!! No question is a dumb question. I am here to help you grow and learn in music. It should be fun. If it is not and I am not catching it. Please tell me!
