From the Studio Policy…
Enrollment in the Studio of Emily Ann Peterson is not a “payment per service” arrangement, but ra
ther a tuition-based business. Enrolling in music lessons is a purchase of a teacher’s services and a reservation of the teacher’s time. Tuition entitles a student to school membership and scheduled lessons. Your lesson time is reserved for you; a lesson missed is time and money lost since the time passes whether a student uses it or not. The full monthly fee is to be paid whether or not the student attends all lessons; lessons missed by the student for any reason will not be made-up nor tuition refunded. Notification of inability to attend a lesson is appreciated, but does not excuse payment for contracted lessons.
Tuition is due on or before the 1st day of each month. Please remember that my entire income is based upon the timeliness of your payment for lessons. Such is life. Late payment before or on the 5th of the month will result in a late fee of $30. Your teacher reserves the right to increase the late fee in $15 increments per 5 days should payment be made even later than the 5th of the month.
I offer a select amount of scholarships to students in difficult financial situations. Please remember that I would rather you continue lessons than to quit because of financial reasons. Do not hesitate to ask if there is an available scholarship opening. If donating a scholarship to a student in financial need interests you, please let me know. Music is a priceless gift to give in any circumstance.
