A flute that’s in good working order.

Missed lesson/ Cancellation Policy

"Cancellations made with less than 24 hours' notice, as well as no-show appointments, are non-refundable and will be charged at the full lesson rate, for both flute and theory/histroy lessons."

Payment

"Monthly tuition is due in full before the first class of the month"

Theory/History Lessons

Is theory required before taking the practical examination?

"Comprehensive certification for Level 5 and above requires the completion of both practical and theory exams. While theory must be completed within five years of the practical exam to remain valid for certification, there is no time limit for taking your practical exam once the theory requirement has been fulfilled."

Do I need separate theory lessons for each instrument I play?

"Not at all. Theory requirements are standardized across all instruments. A single completed theory level can be applied toward the certification requirements for any of your practical studies, such as flute or piano."

What should I prepare for our lesson?

Students are responsible for purchasing their own textbooks and level 5-8 practice exam. I will provide practice exams for level 9-ARCT. You will be notified of any additional required materials prior to the commencement of the curriculum.

What is the average time frame for completing a theory level?

While individual progress depends on the student, our typical completion timelines are as follows:

Levels 5–8 (Theory): Approximately 3 months.
Levels 9–10 (Harmony): Approximately 8 months.
Levels 9–10 (History): Approximately 8 months, though this can fluctuate based on a student’s English language proficiency.

Do you offer online or in-person lessons?

I provide both! Lessons are available in person at the studio or online, allowing you the flexibility to choose the setting that best supports your learning journey.
