Welcome Parents and Students


Tuition $10 per 45 minute to 1 hr semi private lesson
I teach out of the piano adventure books, I have students memorize notes by practicing on an ipod and taking note tests that I made myself, I teach students how to ready music, learn scales and chords, music theory and how to play popular music using chords. Because my lessons are 45 minutes to 1 hour long students will have the opportunity to practice before they leave lessons. I teach out of my home near Northside School in Fallon NV. Payment is due at the beginning of the month or new session.

Fall Session
Winter Spring Session
Summer Session

I am holding a spot for your child each week and therefore will need to charge for the lesson even if your child does not come. However I do make up lessons. I am available by appointment most Saturdays and evenings.

I have noticed that weekly lessons for piano students (especially newer ones) have the best results. Skipping lessons may seem cheaper but when I don't see a student regularly I usually end up teaching a review lesson or teaching the same songs that I did in the previous lesson because they have forgotten and have not practiced. Therefore it isn't cheaper to skip lessons because your students most likely will not be progressing well.

Summer Billing

So I will be teaching 11 lessons this week for each student. If you can make all 11 then the summer tuition is $110 if you have planned vacations and know you will be gone I won't charge you for those lessons. So count the number of lessons you can make multiple by $10 and that is how much lessons will be for the summer per student. I still will need to charge for last minute cancellations or no shows, but I am willing to reschedule during the week if possible.

If you want to pay by the month just divide the total cost for summer lessons and divide by 3. And pay me the same amount June, July and August. Or close too the same.
