FAQs
- What should the customer know about your pricing (e.g., discounts, fees)?
Yes, I do. I break up an hour lesson accordingly: $40 for 30 mins. $50 for 45 mins, and $65. for 60 mins. Unlike others, I charge per lesson not in advance, a pay as you go policy. This allows the student the flexibility with both their time and money. I offer bi-monthly lessons for many students who need more time to practice and/or work at their jobs.
- What is your typical process for working with a new customer?
Initially I prefer to speak with the customer and "zero in" on what type of music they want to learn. I do this because it will boost a new students' confidence once they can play the music they enjoy. This confidence propels the student to learn and play more.
- What education and/or training do you have that relates to your work?
My training in Music is extensive. I hold a BM in Music and Performance from The Mannes College of Music in NYC. I hold two Masters: M.M in Music Educ. Hunter College (CUNY) and an M.S in Supervision and Admin. Baruch College (CUNY). I hold, NYS Certification in Music Educ. K-12. and 32 years of teaching Music in Public schools. I am now retired from Public school teaching.
