TYPES of PAYMENT: Checks can be made out to Keys to Expression or Amie Belisle. Cash, Bill Payment, Onpoint Member to Member, Venmo, Zelle, or Square Cash.
PRO-RATED TUITION: Monthly pro-rated tuition is required for school-aged children during school term months September through June. The total number of piano lessons and performances is added up and divided by the 10 months to create 10 equal payments, with some months providing more than four lessons and classes and others less.
RESCHEDULES/CANCELLATIONS: 24 hours notice is required to reschedule a piano lesson, otherwise the lesson is forfeited with payment required. Ample notice of rescheduling will provide more flexibility in options. During school term lessons, missed lessons need to be rescheduled during the week missed otherwise they are forfeited with full tuition required.
INCLEMENT WEATHER POLICY/ILLNESS: Piano lessons will remain on schedule. If students aren’t able to safely travel or attend the lesson, lessons will be offered using a video call otherwise the lesson is forfeited with payment required. Video lessons can be through Zoom, Google Hangouts or FaceTime. These online lessons can be effective alternatives when students aren’t able to be present in the studio.
In the event of inclement weather lesson times can often be adjusted on the scheduled lesson day to make travel easier.
