Payment
- Billing for lessons at Guitars, etc. is handled by the store and follows their policies.
- Payment for single lessons is due in full when the lesson is scheduled.
- Tuition for weekly lessons is invoiced on the 25th of each month for the upcoming month (e.g. September is invoiced on August 25th).
- Tuition for weekly lessons is due within 10 days of the invoice date. A $15 late fee will be added to overdue invoices.
- You will be emailed an invoice for lessons. You may pay online by card or eCheck. I also accept payment in-person by cash or check.
- You can stop weekly lessons at the end of any month and there is no cancellation fee. If possible, please let me know at least two weeks before dropping lessons.
- All sales are final and there are no refunds for missed lessons.
Scheduling
- Lessons are available at my studios or online.
- I normally teach one-on-one. If you would like to book a group, please email me.
- Lessons are booked for a specific date and time. Missed lessons do not transfer or credit forward so please be sure of your availability before booking.
- I book in multiples of 30 minutes. I do not currently offer 45 minute lessons.
- Weekly lessons spots are always the same day and time. There are a few weeks off each year, you can check the calendar for the current schedule.
- I am in US Mountain time and Colorado observes Daylight Savings Time. We vary between UTC-7:00 and UTC-6:00 depending on the time of year. Double check with me if you’re booking from another time zone.
Attendance
- Please be on time. If you are going to be late, please text or call (970) 682-4842.
- If you are more than 10 minutes late without notice, it is considered a no-show and I may leave or start the next lesson.
- Please let me know as soon as possible if you are unable to attend a lesson.
- Rescheduling may sometimes be an option, depending on schedules. If a lesson cannot be rescheduled for the same week, I will send a recorded lesson or let you know what to practice instead.
- Please do not skip lessons because you haven’t practiced. We can always review and it’s a great opportunity to work on practice strategies.
- There are no refunds for lessons unless I miss a scheduled lesson and we are unable to reschedule.
Online
- Online lessons work best for older students with playing experience. Beginner and pre-high school students must take in person.
- You will receive a unique meeting code for your lessons. We’ll use the same code each week.
- The lesson’s meeting opens at your start time.
Weather
- If you feel travel conditions are unsafe, please call or text me at (970) 682-4842. We can do an online or recorded lesson instead.
- If the store is closed, all lessons will be recorded or online. I will normally also move lessons online if Fort Collins or Longmont are on accident alert.
- I’ll let you know if lessons are moved online by 10:00am via text or email. I may also make the change later in the day if the weather changes suddenly.
Illness and Injury
- Pain while playing an instrument is bad. If you experience pain while playing, stop and see a doctor as soon as possible.
- If you need to cancel due to illness or injury, please contact me and we will switch to a recorded or online lesson instead.
- Please do not risk your and your fellow students’ health by coming to the studio while you are ill. If I believe a student is contagious or too sick or injured to play, I will send them home immediately.
- If I am sick, we will switch to either an online or recorded lesson.
