Piano Lessons With Scott Coletta

Scheduling And Payment

I am currently teaching both in person and online. In person lessons take place in your home and online lessons are over Skype or FaceTime. I started teaching online in 2011 to accommodate students who lived out of range so the recent need to teach more students online was an easy transition for me to make. Meeting in person is ideal but the online platforms work very well and aside from the occasional technical glitch, I've learned how to work around the limitations and provide an equally beneficial experience for my students compared to in person. If you have any questions, please don't hesitate to contact me.

Payments and scheduling work as follows:

• Your first lesson is no charge, just to get acquainted and make sure it's a good fit for everyone. If you decide to continue, payments can be made by cash, check or online through your bank or via Zelle, Venmo or PayPal.
• Lessons are scheduled for a regular weekly time that is reserved for each student.
• Lessons are paid for in groups of 5 lessons at a time. Payment is due at the first lesson of the group.
• If I plan to miss a lesson or I’m unable to make a lesson, the remaining lessons in the group will roll over to the following week.
• In each group of 5 lessons, if you need to miss 1 lesson, the remaining lessons in the group will roll over to the following week. If you need to miss more than 1 lesson in the group, the additional missed lesson(s) will be forfeited.*
• I will send a weekly text update detailing where we stand in each group of 5 lessons.

*If you don't miss a lesson during a group of 5 lessons, the unmissed lesson will NOT roll over to the next group of 5 lessons. Putting lessons on hold "taking a break" will be at my discretion depending on circumstances and scheduling availability.
