Our lesson slots are primarily 30 minutes long. However, we also offer extended sessions of 45 minutes and 60 minutes to accommodate more in-depth learning. For families with younger siblings interested in learning, we provide the option of adding 15-minute sessions to your primary booking.

Please note that your tuition encompasses more than just the lesson time. It also covers additional costs such as fuel and the travel time our instructors undertake to deliver lessons to your location.

Our standard scheduling offers weekly lessons to ensure consistent progress and engagement with the material.

However, we understand that everyone's schedule and learning pace are unique. For those who need more flexibility or have other commitments, bi-weekly lessons can also be arranged, subject to your availability and the instructor's schedule. Our goal is to accommodate your needs while ensuring a rewarding learning experience.

To ensure a smooth and productive virtual lesson experience, you will need the following:

• Your Instrument: Have your instrument ready to go for each lesson.

• Reliable Internet Connection: A stable internet connection is crucial to avoid interruptions during your lesson.

• Device with Camera and Microphone: Use a computer, tablet, or smartphone that allows both you and your instructor to see and hear each other clearly.

• Music Stand (Optional): Though not mandatory, a music stand can help keep your sheet music at an easy-to-read angle.

• Quiet Space: Choose a quiet, comfortable space where you can focus on your lesson without distractions.

By preparing these essentials, you'll be all set for an engaging and effective virtual music learning experience.

Absolutely! We understand the importance of finding the right fit when it comes to music instruction. That's why we offer the option for you to pay for a single lesson as a trial. This gives you the opportunity to experience our teaching style and the instructor's approach firsthand.

Should you feel the need to explore a different instructor after your initial trial, your second trial lesson with one of our other instructors will be complimentary. Our goal is for you to feel confident and comfortable with your choice before committing to regular lessons.

Please note, while the trial lesson is a paid lesson, we assure you there are no hidden terms or conditions obligating you to continue with more lessons. Your satisfaction and comfort with our teaching approach are our top priorities.

Tracking your student's musical journey is key to their development and your peace of mind. To ensure transparency and ease of access to progress updates, we employ several strategies:

• Lesson Journals in ParentRML: After every lesson, we update lesson journals with details on covered topics and assigned homework. These journals are accessible through our private-access app, "ParentRML," designed exclusively for parents and guardians to stay informed and engaged.

• Benchmark Comparisons: Witness progress through tangible benchmarks, such as recordings of recital performances. These serve as a clear indicator of improvement and skill refinement over time.

• Regular Feedback: We provide consistent feedback to help you or your child understand their development. This includes celebrating achievements and identifying opportunities for growth.

• Goal and Milestone Discussions: Our instructors are committed to aligning with your aspirations, regularly discussing goals and milestones to ensure that lessons are tailored to the student's evolving needs.

With these dedicated resources, including the exclusive ParentRML app, tracking your student's progress is straightforward and integrated into the fabric of our teaching approach.

Ensuring the safety and well-being of our students and instructors during in-home lessons is our top priority.

To this end, we have implemented several safety protocols:

• Background Checks: All of our instructors undergo thorough background checks before they start teaching, ensuring a safe and trustworthy environment for learning.

• Adherence to Health Guidelines: We continuously monitor and adhere to local health guidelines and safety measures. This includes any necessary precautions related to public health concerns to protect both our students and instructors.

Your peace of mind is important to us. If you have any questions or require additional information regarding our safety measures or any other aspect of our music lessons, please don't hesitate to reach out. We're eager to assist you or your child in starting a rewarding musical journey!
