Programs and lesson fees
My prices are competitive because when I teach online I don't have to charge extra for the overhead of teaching at a large music school or big box corporate music store. And unlike most music stores, I don't require a registration fee from you when you're starting lessons. I am also more flexible to work with since I make my own schedule and policies.
I believe strongly in shopping around for the right
service or product, and I am confident about my
teaching abilities, so I offer a free 30
minute, one-on-one, no obligations trial lesson to
anyone who asks (not to be confused with
the video example lesson on my home
page). I also offer a free lesson to any
already enrolled student who brings another paying
student my way through personal recommendation.
Word of mouth is my best advertisement!

Should I take 30 minute or hour lessons?
Obviously if price is a factor, you would naturally
go with the cheaper option as the only practical
alternative. However, with music lessons I feel the
cheaper alternative is the best starting option as
well because of the practical issues involved with
starting out. Therefore, I recommend starting with the
30 minute lessons at first. Especially if you have
never taken lessons before, you don't even know what
your limits are yet until you try it out for a while.
Also consider that I can fit a lot
of information into a half hour lesson, and a longer
lesson than that when a student is just starting out
can have the effect of making their eyes glaze over
long before the hour is up. I don't usually recommend
opting for the hour lessons until a student feels like
the 30 minute lessons are flying by too quickly
without as much payoff as before. That's when I know
they're getting better as a musician. Until then, most
people starting out will usually feel like the 30
minute lesson is plenty to be going on with.
