  • Initial Lesson:

    Each student is entitled to a free introductory lesson. We can use this time to make sure we’re a good fit for each other, establish goals, and set expectations for working together.

    Weekly Lessons:

    Weekly lessons are charged at a monthly flat rate, paid in advance of each month. Lessons are scheduled every week of the month. This reserves your time slot.

    Tuition is the same whether there are four or five weeks in a month. This works as a benefit to students and as a result, I do not offer makeup lessons for holidays or student absences.

    Lessons that begin in the middle of a month will be prorated for the number of weeks/lessons remaining in the given month.

    Tuition is due at the end of the last lesson of each month for the following month’s lessons.

    Single Lessons

    Must be paid in full at the time the lesson is scheduled

    Cannot be scheduled more that one week in advance

    Subject to availability

    No refunds

    Missed Lessons/Cancellations/Makeup Lessons

    Students with late payments are subject to losing their regularly scheduled lesson time, and rebooking will be subject to availability.

    If you must miss a lesson, you may gift the lesson to a friend or family member at the regularly scheduled time.

    In the event that I must miss a lesson, I will try my best to provide options for a makeup session.

    If we are unable to schedule a makeup due to my absence within the month, you’ll be credited 25% of your monthly tuition for the following month.

    As a courtesy, please inform me of cancellations at least 24 hours in advance.

    Discontinuing Lessons

    As a courtesy to me, please provide at least TWO WEEKS notice prior to discontinuing lessons. Example, if you wish to discontinue lessons in the month of June, please let me know by the end of your second lesson in May.

    What to Expect

    All lessons are presumed to be online. In-person lessons may be available based on geographical location/my travel schedule/studio availability.

    I offer options for students of all skill levels and with varying access to a drum set.

    Please see the “materials” document for more information.

    I will provide a follow-up after each lesson, providing a recap, and things to work on for the following week.

    I will keep all student worksheets/charts/notes in a student file on Google Drive. Check this regularly!

    The most important part of drum lessons (especially in the earlier stages) is building passion and appreciation for the drums. I strive to provide an encouraging, engaging, and (above all) fun experience for every student. You get out of drum lessons what you put into them! Come to your lesson with a curious, creative, and excited attitude!
