We will be learning by rote in the beginning but I will give the children some hand-outs. Sometimes young children may be comfortable propping their music up on a table or in their case.
I WILL PROVIDE:
A folder for each child Information sheets regarding instrument and bow care Beginning lesson sheets Receipt each month for your records Notice each month of how many lessons we will have in the upcoming month and any Adjustments necessary due to holidays, weather or any other disruptions to regularly scheduled lessons
RECITALS/CONCERTS Group lessons and student recitals are also offered after the first six months of study, are based on availability and readiness of the student. COMMITMENT It is important that both parents and students alike, understand that a commitment of one year is generally needed for a beginner on the violin to have a valuable experience of the instrument. Stringed instruments and their study require a gradual development of the fine motor skills needed to play. Though a year commitment is not required, it is highly recommended.

LESSON POLICY
LATENESS/ABSENCE Please notify me in advance if your child will not be able to make their scheduled time for lesson. In some situations lessons may be rescheduled. If your child shows up late for their lesson without prior notification, regardless of the time, their lesson will last the remainder of that time and not beyond. It would not be fair to the students scheduled after them who show up on time. *There will be no refunds given for late or missed lessons.* Fees are based on a monthly program NOT per lesson, which are offered at an advantageous discount exclusive to Greater Atlanta Montessori School Students. MAKE-UP LESSONS If for any reason, I am unable to make a regularly scheduled time, you will be notified in advance. This lesson will be rescheduled or extra time will be given in extended lessons and the lesson time will be made up. MISSED LESSONS (Due to illness) Any lesson missed due to illness needs to be called in to my cell phone #678-308-2022 at least 24hrs in advance. There will be a 5-day grace period for the lesson to be made up, if it is at all possible. It is the responsibility of the student or parent to contact me during this time for the make-up. If this is not done or there is less than 24hrs notice given, the lesson will be considered a missed lesson and regular payment is expected. Not practicing is not considered a reason for a canceled lesson.
