Hi Piano Families!
Here is the information on fall enrollment. The process has been simplified!
For rate explanation, go here: Piano Tuition
For studio policies (slight changes only) go here, and look at the four headings: Studio Policies
For the early bird discount, go to: Encore Studio Home
From there, login, go to June 5th on the calendar, and sign up. You MUST sign up BEFORE the 5th; the deadline is really June 4. My website won't allow you to sign up ON the 5th. In addition, your payment must be received by the end of June to receive the discount.
If you miss the early bird, you can still sign up on the calendar on July 1 (again the actual deadline is June 30), and you can still save the registration fee if you pay the full semester or 1st month on or before July 1.
Additional information: Depending on our teacher situation, the studio size may be smaller in 2017-18. Miss Maryn will only be available to substitute on rare ocassions. Mr. Anson is planning to teach again, and will also be available to substitute. It's possible another teacher may join us as well. Of course, all current students will have a spot (if you sign up!).
For new students, the plan is to accommodate siblings in current families before other new students, but if you don't sign up for summer or fall, I won't know to reserve a spot for you. There MAY be an additional opportunity to sign up on August 1, but don't count on it! If you are a new family looking for lessons, it would be helpful if you create your login for the website. This automatically places you on the waiting list, and you will be contacted soon!
Thanks!
Debra Bolte Heald, NCTM
Reviews:
Mrs. Heald was an excellent teacher. When my daughters were just starting she was so patient and kind with the little ones. As they continued she not only was their piano instructor but became a life-long mentor. We are looking forward to starting the next generation of our family with her. I highly recommend her!

My son has been taking lessons from Debra for three years. The first two years were in person and the last was online. My daughter started taking lessons this last year online. I was a little bit worried how online would go since she is only 6, but is has been great! Debra is easy to work with and my kids say that she makes learning the piano fun!

Debra Heald is amazing piano teacher. She taught all three of my kids, and I have been taking lessons from her as an adult student for several years. One of her best strengths as a teacher is figuring out ways for everyone to be successful at piano. She is extremely knowledgeable about music and theory but also has a calm teaching approach.
