Policies

 

 

Thank you for your interest in music lessons with Colorado Music Lessons. I am very excited to help and assist you in achieving your musical goals. I personally have dedicated my life to the understanding, performing and teaching of music. I have made it my full-time career. As such, I must uphold certain studio policies in order to keep the studio running efficiently to aid you and my other students. I know you will find that these policies are fairly standard in the private music teaching industry.

 

Attendance Policy

Lessons with Colorado Music Lessons take place on a weekly basis. If you are unable to attend a lesson, I require at least 24 hours advance notice in the form of a phone call or a charge for the lesson will be applied. For example: If your lesson is on Tuesday at 5PM, I must hear from you no later than 5PM on Monday. The only exceptions are for weather and bereavement. When you do give me 24 hours advance notice your payment will be credited to a future lesson and no money is lost. This policy allows students the opportunity to reschedule if they need to. It also respects my time that I hold for your lesson.

*Cancellations should only be given by phone and NOT through email or text messages.

 

If you are gone for an extended period of time for more than 2 weeks, your time slot may be given to another student unless other arrangements have been discussed and approved with me. (i.e. payment for additional weeks missed beyond 2 weeks) If other arrangements haven't been made with me and you are gone for more than 2 weeks and your time slot was taken by another student, you will have your choice of any other remaining time slots when you return. If the decision is to stop lessons altogether then a 2 week advance notice is required. If less than 2 weeks notice is given, the student will be required to pay the balance. Refunds will be issued minus the 2 weeks notification required if lessons are abruptly stopped.

 

If the teacher must cancel a lesson for any reason, you will be offered your choice of a make-up lesson (if possible), a refund or a credit towards the next month’s lessons.

Payment Policy

Payments are due the 1st week of the month at your scheduled lesson time. If one or more weeks for the month was already paid for ahead of time or a credit was issued, the rest of the month is still due the 1st lesson of the month. *Emails will be sent out the last day of the month to provide a reminder.

 

Preferred method of payment is cash or check made payable to Bianca Herbert or Colorado Music Lessons. *There will be a $25.00 service charge reimbursement fee for all bounced checks.

 

Class Procedure

Please be on time for your lesson but PLEASE don't come in or ring the bell early. My goal is to give my students their full lesson without distractions. Lessons will end on time even if a student arrives late for the lesson.

*I encourage my students to check their cell phones for accurate & precise time as cell phones typically connect to towers that are updated by the atomic clock in Boulder.
