If you’re ready to get started on a journey in music with private lessons, you’re in the right place! Just read through our Studio Policies, complete the registration form, and we will be in touch with you to schedule your first lesson.
Registration & Tuition
New students will be charged a $20 registration fee upon signup.
Tuition is set at $25 per weekly half hour lesson.
Families that have more than one child enrolled in lessons will receive a discounted rate of $20 per lesson for each additional child.
Monthly payments are due prepaid by the first lesson of the month, or no later than the 10th of the month.
If payments are not received by the 10th of the month, a $15 late fee will be charged. Returned checks will result in a $25 fee.
Payments can be made by cash, check, or online through the My Music Staff online portal.
Please make checks payable to Quad Cities Music, LLC
Attendance and Cancellations
To get the most out of each lesson, please arrive a few minutes early.
The last 3-5 minutes of lesson time may be used to consult with parents/caregivers if needed, as well as to disinfect piano/keyboard.
Please notify the studio of absences due to illness as soon as possible. For planned absences, please notify QCMT in writing by email or text message a minimum of 48 hours before the scheduled lesson.
Credits for missed lessons will only be issued if the teacher cancels a lesson and is unable to reschedule. Credits will be applied to the next month’s tuition.
Students who cancel due to illness or with more than 24hrs notice will be issued a makeup credit. This makeup credit may be redeemed for a lesson during available openings at the teacher’s discretion.
Lessons that are missed with less than 24hrs notice will not be issued a makeup credit, and tuition for that lesson will be forfeited.
Students/Families are responsible for scheduling their makeup lesson. This may be done through My Music Staff, or direct consult with the teacher.
Only two makeup lessons are allowed every 4 months. Makeup credits will expire at the end of 120 days.
Students will not be charged for studio holidays or teacher cancellations.
Lesson Materials
All necessary lesson books and materials will be obtained by Quad Cities Music Therapy. The cost of the first set of lesson books will be covered by the initial registration fee. The cost for subsequent lesson books and materials will be added to the student’s account balance on My Music Staff and billed along with the following month’s tuition.
Students are expected to bring all their materials to each lesson.
After each lesson, practice notes and assignments will be emailed to parents with guidance for the next week.
Termination
We always hope that students will continue on in music with us, but understand that sometimes there’s a need to move on. Two weeks written notice is required to discontinue lessons. If insufficient notice is given, the student/parent will still be responsible for the two weeks of tuition.
The teacher reserves the right to terminate lessons at any time for inappropriate student behavior. Tuition for lessons which the student has not yet attended will be refunded if the teacher terminates lessons.
