Virtual Lessons are done on Zoom, or Facetime if you prefer. I like to use Zoom for Screen sharing and whiteboard use. You will be sent a private Zoom link that will be consistent for all of your lessons, it is included in all of your reminder emails as well!!!
Appropriate books for lessons may be purchased at the majority of music stores around Calgary. If you would like the studio to purchase the books for you please send an email and it can be added on to your monthly invoice. Please note that for piano it is essential to have music books for the student to practice with on a daily basis. For all my current students I offer a Free Membership for Joy Tunes Music Maestro that can be accessed on phones or ipads. Within this app there are practice lessons, theory practice and samples of music books for the student to work through at home! For Voice lessons Karaoke tracks can be purchased online. I can locate and purchase the song in the proper key to email and send as an mp3 for you and I can add that to your monthly invoice.
There is a 24 hour cancellation policy, if a lesson is missed with no notice or under the 24 hour time frame you will be charged for the lesson without a makeup lesson. It is however understood that last minute occurrences such as illness, and emergencies so upon my discretion on the situation in such case you may be provided with a makeup lesson. If cancellations are made with 24 hour notice or more we can reschedule the lesson for a time that best suits both our schedules. I will provide you with a minimum of 24 hours notice if I need to reschedule the lesson for an urgent reason. If in any case I reschedule your lesson, it will be provided with a makeup lesson at a time convenient for both of us.
