Rates & policies

1. If you need to cancel a lesson, please make every effort to do so at least 24 hours in advance (via text, email, or phone). Canceling a day or more beforehand gives me the chance to reschedule that time--which not only helps me, but may also help you in the future, too! (And if you cancel a lesson in person, please send a text or email to confirm that cancellation.)

2. In the event that you must cancel with less than 24 hours' notice (i.e., same-day cancellation), we have two options:  either (a) we can try to make-up your lesson sometime in the same calendar week, whenever there might be an opening in my schedule (hopefully in-person, perhaps online); or, (b) failing that, we'll have to count the lesson canceled--though, unfortunately, I'll have to charge to recoup the lost prep & lesson time. (If somehow you find yourself in a "no call, no show" situation, proper etiquette is to pay for the missed lesson *before* contacting your teacher with an apology or explanation.)

3. Finally, if you have a "primetime" weekday time-slot (i.e., Mon-Fri, 4-8pm) and repeatedly cancel your lesson (even with 24-hour notice), I may ultimately need to move your lesson-time to an hour with less demand. 

Thank you in advance for understanding ;)
