All About Choosing Piano Schools And Teachers

[melody23]

Hi there! I was quoted a monthly rate by a piano teacher for my child. Her monthly rates are fixed, in which 7months consists of 4 lessons, and 5 months only has 3 lessons. Rates are not prorated for the months with 3 lessons. Wonder if this is a common practice? Any advice is much appreciated. Thank you.

I would say this practice is uncommon for majority of piano teachers, but not uncommon among more premium piano teachers with limited slots.

Piano teachers have paid annual leave and public holidays too right? Some choose to build that into their hourly rates, others don't.

Thanks for your reply! The teacher has a diploma, and will be teaching my preschooler… Don’t think she’s a premium piano teacher though…
