Lessons at my home studio (in person)

• 20 minute lesson - £10
• 30 minute lesson - £15
• 40 minute lesson - £20
• 60 minute lesson - £30

A more flexible lesson time of 30-40 minutes is offered for £18. This is for students who usually need a bit more than half an hour but not quite a regular 40 minutes.

 

Home visits

Travel charge depends on distance travelled. I am not currently offering home visits outside Burnham on Crouch.

Live video call lessons and video exchange lessons are a lower rate, as are lessons at my home.

​Video calls are usually a better option if you are unable to come to me, as lessons that take place in my home are always more effective and efficient whether they are in-person or via video call, due to the professional setup and the fact that all my teaching resources are to hand.

Preferred Payment Methods

For home visits:

​Bank transfer, standing order, Pingit or Paym. A trial lesson can be paid for individually. If we decide to continue after this trial lesson you can choose to carry on paying as you go weekly, or for a number of weeks in advance. Unfortunately I do not accept cheques. Payments must be on or before the day of the lesson.

For online lessons or lessons at my home:

Credit/debit card or PayPal via secure online checkout. If you are in the UK I can also accept payments by any of the methods described above. Payment via PayPal invoice or Square invoice is another option.
​Payments must be on or before the day of the lesson.

 

Cancellation Policy

I understand that sometimes important things come up that are unavoidable and I aim to rearrange cancelled lessons whenever possible, so I do not charge for cancellations if I have been given reasonable notice. However, as a courtesy I do ask that if I have turned up to the lesson and then it is cancelled, that the fee is still paid so that I am not left out of pocket due to my travel expenses and lost time. For block bookings there is no refund for cancellations e.g. if you pay for a block of lessons in advance and then decide to discontinue lessons before all the booked lessons have been done, you forfeit your payment. However I will carry over your payment if your discontinuation of lessons is only temporary and I have been given plenty of notice (at least 24 hours notice), e.g. if you are going away for a couple of weeks and need to stop lessons just for those two weeks.

If I need to cancel a lesson myself I will aim to rearrange the missed lesson or carry over your payment to cover the next lesson if you have paid in advance. If it is not possible to rearrange the lesson or carry over your payment to the next lesson I will refund you if you have already paid in advance. I do not charge for lessons that I have cancelled myself. So, if I cancel a lesson which you have not yet paid for, you do not need to pay for that lesson. You will only need to pay for subsequent lessons.
