Cancellation Policy
When you register for piano lessons, Gayle reserves that time for you; please block the time on your calendar, too. Together, we can prevent or minimize schedule changes.
If Gayle cancels a piano lesson, she will make it up. If you cancel a piano lesson, Gayle will make up if there is an open spot. If your family has a schedule change mid-year because of sports or other activities, we may be able to switch with another student, but this is not guaranteed. If your child is sick or contagious, please cancel the lesson, or we may be able to do a Zoom lesson.
Please give one month’s notice if you plan to cancel the remaining lessons in your academic year package. If you pre-paid for the entire year, we will reimburse unused months minus a $50 rescheduling fee.
