Dawn’s Policy and Tuition

1. Consistency in lesson attendance is weekly unless there are specific holidays that there will be no lessons offered.
2. Payment will be required at the beginning of the month. Monthly tuition is based on 45 lesson weeks out of the 52 weeks divided by 12 months. More details are listed below.
3. Cancellations that happen on my end will be no charge and can be given back in a refund at the lesson rate or given a make-up. 
4. Cancellations that are made in advance by the student or parent can be offered a reschedule.  This reschedule can even be made virtually.  If no reschedule can be made up the lesson time will still be paid for. 
5. Cancellations that are made within 24 hours’ notice by student or parent will forfeit a make-up and still be paid for. 
6. Consistent practice outside of lessons is essential for the progression of the student.  At least an amount totaling 30 minutes a day is a good standard to apply to the material we are working on in the lessons to achieve their goals.
7. To keep your spot, lessons must continue in the summer and is figured in the monthly tuition.  This is an important time to keep things moving forward and not going backward.
