Welcome to the studio! I am so excited to create and learn music with everyone, whether you are a returning student of mine, or a new one. Get ready to work hard and get better, but also to discover how fun it is to make music by yourself and with the people around you. I look forward to great experiences with each and every one of you.
Lesson Times and Places
Lessons take place at the school during band class and after school. They take place weekly for a duration of 30 minutes per student.
Expectations
It should be understood that you are prepared for each lesson. I will take notes during the lesson, and send out these notes to the parents and students. They will cover what we worked on in the lesson, and what you are expected to have ready for the following week's lessons.
Payments
Payments will be due monthly, on the first of every month, for the month. Be sure to double check your school calendar for holidays or no school days.
I will accept cash, check, or payment through Paypal. By check: Make the check out to "Julio Espinoza". By cash: Please put the cash in an envelope with the students name on it.
At most of the schools, there are scholarship available to those who posses financial need. Please consult with your band directors about this subject.
Make-up Lessons
If you have to miss a lesson, please notify me at least 24 hours in advance. If you do not contact me within that time frame, you will still pay for the lesson. Similarly, If I miss a lesson and have not let you know, then you will receive a lesson the following week free of charge. These are on a case by case basis, but mostly following these guidelines.
If for any reason, you wish to discontinue lessons, please notify me at least 2 weeks prior to your last lesson. This way I have time to adjust my schedule accordingly. If you fail to discontinue lessons within this time frame, you will be responsible for compensation of those last two weeks of lessons.
Once again, I look forward to making music with everyone. I know that I will learn from you as much as I hope that you will all learn from me. If you have any questions, please feel free to contact me at via phone number 469-203-0956 or email me at Julioespinoza112@gmail.com.
