VACATIONS: if you will miss more than one week, special arrangements need to be made in order to keep your regular
time slot. If you need to RESCHEDULE a lesson, please call or email and leave a message and I contact you for a
make-up time. If you need to cancel on the same-day as your lesson due to an emergency, please call the number

Make-Up Times
Saturday times are available for missed lessons. It is important for you to schedule a make-up time as it is essential that we receive a monthly tuition for all teaching time slots,
whether a student can attend all the lessons or not….so there will be no deduction in tuition for missed lessons. If a student misses two lessons without prior arrangements,
that time slot could be lost. On some holidays (other than July 4th, Thanksgiving, Christmas, New Year’s Day), I am available to teach.
(Please check with me in advance if your lesson time falls on a holiday).
Phone Calls
If you need to talk with Dan on the phone, call in the morning as he teaches afternoons and may have recording sessions in the evenings.
Please leave a message on the service, or
contact us using the website, which sends Dan an email and a text message to his phone. He will get back to you ASAP.
Using the website will help us better keep track of cases you bring to our attention.
Lesson Procedures
Please be on time to your lesson. If you are late, we may go over your scheduled time slot – if no one is waiting.
If another student is waiting, your lesson will need to be cut short. If we are late getting started for any reason,
or get an interruption during the lesson, we will be sure to make up the time lost. Please bring your notebook,
lesson books or other equipment assigned as necessary to make the best use of lesson time. Daily practice is
important to your progress, therefore please schedule whatever practice time is necessary to accomplish your
weekly assignment.
Performances and Recitals
We usually plan several performances a year to facilitate experience in performing before an audience, which takes
the place of a weekly band session. It is considered ‘band time against tuition’. You will be given notice and
instructions by separate announcement and on the website. Travel arrangements and performance clothing are each
student’s responsibility.
Dress at Lessons, Classes, and Performances
MODESTY IS A MUST. PLEASE RESPECT EACH OTHER BY DRESSING APPROPRIATELY.
Thanks for your cooperation! We reserve the right to refuse enrollment
to anyone and cannot be held liable for exclusion from our program.
Thank You!
Thanks for the opportunity to assist you in the development of your talents.
It is our mission that your study of music will be a positive experience and
make a wonderful difference in your life!
