Good evening!
I'm setting up my schedule for June and July lessons at this time, and in order for it all to work efficiently, I need to hear from you if you are interested in having your child take any lessons in that time frame. I was hoping, as I'm sure you all were as well, that we might have the opportunity to meet in person at the schools if they opened up. If that does happen, we will adjust accordingly, but for now we will continue video lessons as we have been.
I had a much stronger response for lessons last week than I anticipated, and I even heard from a few of you that had paused lessons when the stay-at-home orders took effect. I can't tell you how happy I am to hear from those students! This means that I will be keeping my schedule more open for the first couple of weeks until I know who is and isn't taking lessons for the summer.
My plan is to have full days teaching on Tuesdays and Wednesdays, using Thursdays for those that I can't fit in, and avoiding Mondays and Fridays except when there is just not another day that we can make work. I will try to keep the 12:30 - 1:30 hour free so I can have lunch with my family.
If possible, I would like for you to look at your schedule for at least June, July too if you can, and let me know what weeks you would like to have lessons, and what days and time-ranges will work for you. It doesn't have to be the same day each week; you can switch it to accommodate your schedule as needed. If your not sure of your plans and would prefer to schedule weekly, that will be fine too. And, of your plans change, that's not a problem, just let me know. The nice thing about doing online lessons is that, if you wanted to, we could even have lessons while you are out of town as long as you have a device and internet access where you are.
Once I hear from you, I will begin billing for lessons according to the schedule we set up with the information you provide. If you took lessons last week, I will include those in the June invoice. If you are unable to make a schedule and want to set up lessons week to week, your invoicing will happen a little differently, and I'll communicate that with you when I hear form you.
If you are stopping lessons for the summer, please know that I will miss you, and I hope you are safe, well, and happy!
I look forward to hearing form you. And, as always, thanks for letting me share my love of flute and music with your child,
