September 2019
Our new year is off to a great start! It is so good to see all of the students again after summer break!
It will be a wonderful year of learning new music and completing previously started pieces. I am excited about the newly designed lesson schedule that should allow additional time during lessons for more in-depth study, as well as more time for students to complete assignments between lessons. Remember there are no lessons on a 5th week except in March 2020 due to Spring Break the first week of April.
I can't wait for my piano tuner to come next week to tune the Yamaha grand piano in my studio! I hope you all enjoy playing on a freshly tuned piano as much as I do! I feel like a child in a candy shop every time I sit down to play after a tuning...just listening for all the beautiful tones coming from the piano! If you have not had your piano tuned recently, please consider doing so. You will be glad you did! I can provide information about local tuners; just ask me.
Remember to turn in your 2019 - 2020 Studio Enrollment Forms so I can keep my records up-to-date. I also use this to draw up a "Lesson Swap List" so students can contact another student and request to swap lesson days/dates in the event of a scheduling conflict. You can also indicate on this form whether you wish to receive a subscription to Piano Explorer magazine. Cost is $6 for one year.
I will be posting event information for the year ahead shortly on the EVENTS page, so be sure to check that for dates, locations, etc.
Monthly Tuition can be paid online using PayPal by going to the MORE menu and clicking on TUITION. Payment amounts have been adjusted for the new year. Using the buttons, select either 45 minute or 60 minute lessons. There is no longer a 30 minute option. You must have a PayPal account in order to use this payment method. Of course, cash and check are accepted as well.
As always, feel free to get in touch if you have any questions. I'm always happy to help.
Here's to a GREAT YEAR!!!
