Cello Students
I teach in Roseville and West St. Paul
Call for rates and availability.
If you are interested in cello choir, please let me know.
Terms (Read Carefully)
Payments are due at the first lesson of each month. If you must miss a lesson for any reason, it is YOUR responsibility to schedule a make-up or switch with another student. If less than 24 hours notice is given, the lesson will be forfeited. There will also be a late fee, $10.00, assessed for each late payment. (Please make check out to Mcello Inc.):
RECITAL- Recitals will be held a little differently this year. I am hiring a pianist to accompany everyone and there will be a separate practice before the polished recital. There will be a fee for the pianist.
Teacher Absence Policy
If for any reason I have to cancel a lesson, I will either reschedule or lesson credit will be given. I will do my best to give you advanced notice of my absence.
Weather Policy
The weather in Minnesota can be quite unpredictable at times. If a student is unable to attend lessons due to poor weather, I will phone or e-mail a make-up lesson. The same flat, unchanging monthly fee is applied.
Lesson Discontinuation Policy
I require a 30-day advance notice of a student’s discontinuation of instruction. If this notice is not given, a month’s tuition will be assessed.
