Scheduling for fall will be similar to last year. Lessons will be consolidated to FOUR days a week. Because of this, I am not accepting any new students at this time - unless I have students who do not return. Since I have a long waiting list for new students, I ask for a firm commitment from returning students to register for the 2025-26 "piano year" in early summer. Lessons will not be regularly scheduled on Tuesdays.

Also, before signing up, please review: Studio-Instrument-Home Especially:

• Playing assignments at home - lessons are to ENHANCE the playing, not BE the playing! 
• Student attitude and progress must be positive. If the student does not play at home, does not have  a positive attitude about or at piano lessons, and is making little or no progress, piano is not the right activity for them!

What does everyone need to do?

• Sign up on the calendar [NEWS FLASH: Right above the month, you have to click on "Find & Book" - NOT "Schedule"] on July 17 (Early-bird Registration - $25 August discount) or if you missed that, the Last Chance Registration on July 24
• Send me an email if you already know what day/time you prefer (or if you want to keep your day/time from 2024-25). First choice of times given to those registering the soonest.
• Pay first tuition installment or semester/yearly payment. If 1st tuition installment is paid on or before August 1 will give you a $50 credit on June 2026 invoice. 
• Semester or yearly payments will be discounted by $100 for the year ($50 per semester).

See Encore Studio Tuition for more information

Also, ALL students must be prepared to have at least an occasional online lesson, due to either student or teacher minor illness, scheduling conflict, or teacher travel away from studio.
