These coupons are always for one free lesson and are only accepted once per three month period by any current student. Also, one free lesson credit is given to any student who has perfect attendance over a three month period. Prices are subject to change. Student Responsibilities – Materials - Students are responsible for the purchase of their own books, instruments, and other materials needed for the lessons they are receiving. Our teachers will assist in referring our students to where they can obtain these items, however they are not responsible for providing them personally. Practicing - Each teacher instructs how much practice is ideal for each student and will encourage students in their practicing. Nevertheless, once the instructor is gone it is up the student to do their own practicing. Progress will be made most quickly by those students who maintain the recommended practicing time. Parents are also encouraged to be involved in their students practice. Taking the to listen to your child play their weekly songs, or creating a set time for practicing in the students daily routine are good ways to become involved. Attendance – Students are responsible for their time slot with Original Music Lessons. If a student is not available for their weekly lesson for any reason it is not the responsibility of the teacher to make up the missed lesson, or the responsibility of Original Music Lessons to reimburse the student for the missed lesson. In addition to this, students are asked to contact their teacher or the Original Music Lessons office 24 hours in advance if a student will be unavailable for their lesson. It is a courtesy to the teachers to not have they drive to a lesson that will not be taking place. Student Contracts- Students or parents of students being taught by Original Music Lessons are to sign and hand in a student contract with their first payment of lessons. This student contract ensures that both the students and the parents understand the business arrangements of how these lessons will work. The student contract can be found on our website and can be printed out at home. Payment Payment is to be received before regular lessons with a student begin.
