SCHOOL POLICIES
TUITION:
All payments are processed by pre-authorized credit cards on the first of the month. Monthly lessons are $125 per month. There is a one time Registration Fee of $25. Tuition is never prorated for missed lessons.
Tuition does not include any retail teaching materials such as books or instruments.
Tuition that is received into the office after the 5th of the month will have a $20 late fee added to the account.
​
CANCELLATION & MAKEUPS:
For any lessons missed by a teacher, Canada Music Lessons will schedule a make up lesson or add a credit to your following month’s tuition for the missed class.
For any lesson missed by the student, tuition and enrollment fees are non-refundable and makeup lessons are not scheduled.
PRIVATE STUDENTS: If you know ahead of time that you are going to be absent, let the office know and your teacher will provide a recorded video with instructions for the upcoming week.
​
ACCELERATED STUDENTS: If you know ahead of time that you are going to be absent, you are welcome to reschedule your Accelerated class to a different day/time in the week using the studio calendar.
​
DISCONTINUING LESSONS:
To discontinue lessons and to discontinue charges to your account, return the completed withdrawal form to the office at admin@canadamusiclessons.com before the 15th of your last month. We do not prorate tuition for the last month’s lessons. Students will be responsible for their last month’s tuition whether or not they attend lessons.
​
The studio/teacher has the right to discontinue lessons at their discretion.
​
MONTHLY LESSONS
Monthly tuition is based on an average of 4 lessons or studio events (such as recitals) per month. In long months, you will get five lessons, in short months you may have 3 lessons, and most months you will have four lessons. The tuition is the SAME each month; i.e. we don’t charge you more when you have five lessons, and we don’t charge you less when you have three lessons in a month. This makes everyone’s accounting easier.
​
SUMMER CLASSES
Canada Music Lessons operates year-round and does not close for the summer. If you are taking a month off for vacation and want to resume the next month, your payment is still due on the first of each month to reserve your lesson space. You can request videos lessons for the classes you are absent, or if the teacher has availability you can request to make up the missed classes upon your return. Make up classes are NOT guaranteed and are given at the discretion of the teacher.
​
OPEN DOOR POLICY
​Parents are always allowed to sit in on lessons. We have an open-door policy for lessons.
