One free "get acquainted" consultation is offered before you start regular lessons.Payments may be made with cash, checks (made out to "Jana Stiles"), or online with either Venmo or Paypal.Fees and policies are the same for Skype lessons. Only students that begin in August or January can pay for an entire semester. All lessons must be completed during the semester/term and cannot be "rolled over" into the next term. A discount is available for families of 3 or more students. That fee is doubled if payment is not received before the end of the month. A late fee of $20 will be assessed if payment is not received on or before the 10 th. This fee is to be paid at the first lesson of each month (if paying monthly). Tuition is $20 per lesson or $75 per month for 30-minute lessons or $350 per semester (only applicable in August and January).I also always send home evaluations at the end of each semester. Make an appointment to call, or e-mail is the best. How can I find out about my child's progress? Just ask me, but not before, during, or after your child's lesson. Plan for this practice time from the very beginning and don't give in if other things come up (because they always will). Just like brushing teeth, doing homework or chores, bed times, etc., things go easier if a habit is formed. My advice to you is to set up a consistent time for practicing each day. I will help you learn the most efficient ways to accomplish much during a practice session. This is a great learning opportunity for your child.

What if my child doesn't like to practice? Almost no one does! Practice is work. Recitals must be signed up for in advance so that I can have time to adequately help your child prepare and I recommend visiting a recital before participating in one. Performances that are more informal are a good place to start if there is any performance anxiety. If stage fright is an issue, please let me know and I can help with that. That can include formal recitals, church, school, nursing homes, just about any where. What about recitals? I recommend that students perform some where at least once a year - once a semester is even better. Then you can be around to encourage and support. If you start from the beginning and have your child in charge of their practicing, marking their time and getting their assignment done, your child will have learned a valuable skill - independent study. If there is still a problem, just wait until the next lesson or you can e-mail with a question. What if my child has a question about the lesson or assignment? I usually spell everything out in the assignment book. It's hard to get even the most motivated students to practice, and if they have to go some where else to do it, it usually doesn't get done. If there is no keyboard or piano in your home, you are fighting an uphill battle. Good used ones can be found for pretty low prices.

If your child is advanced, an acoustic piano is the best choice. Do we have to have a piano? Keyboards are fine for beginners (and a good idea because of the head phone option, portability, and low cost).
