To register....
Determine what will be best for your child by selecting Options 1, 2, or 3.

#1 Maintenance - requires a minimum of 3-4 lessons. At each lesson, students receive instruction on as many Disney songs as lessons permit to help them understand the music and motivate self-directed practice. Practice requirement is relaxed, fitting practice in as able with other activities.

#2 Progression - requires as close to weekly lessons as fit your schedule. Assignments are smaller, giving some practice leeway. Same books are used but alternated with addition of a motivational Disney fun play book. 5 or 6 day practice week recommended.

#3 Catch-up - If school year lessons were interrupted by multiple absences, student would benefit from weekly or bi-weekly lessons. Regular music will be reviewed along with addition of Disney. More practice the better taking into account off school activities.

Please keep in mind where there is no teacher connection, students lose motivation, interest and regress rapidly! Four months could be detrimental come fall.

Additional Notes:
Because a traditional 1/2 lesson goes by quickly, siblings may not share a lesson time. It would be a better plan for them to alternate weeks if needed. Siblings are welcome to schedule back-to-back lessons so you can return in an hour. I do request you send something for younger students to do inside while waiting like a book(s) to read, coloring book etc. Older students can take advantage of the additional practice time while instruction is fresh on their minds. Don't forget about the park up the street too.

Should you have a conflict and need to change a lesson date, I will do my best to accommodate requests given a minimum of one week advance notice if space is available. No refunds or make-ups are given if you miss for any reason. Any changes must be made within the time frame of that session.

Please remember the time I set aside for you is yours, whether you're here or not. Please plan to arrive on time to take advantage of the full lesson. Students arriving late will receive a shortened lesson so the next student can begin at their scheduled time.
