I have been working on the school schedule and have made a great effort to accommodate everyone's school, work, and extracurricular activities as much as possible.  Here is the schedule for this school year. Blue time slots are available and if you need a different time please feel free to ask about one of the blue slots.   I also have openings on Wednesday and Thursday mornings before school.

Starting Monday, August 22^nd.

 A few other thoughts about the fall:

Lessons are more regular during the fall and the only weeks without lessons are: Labor Day, Thanksgiving and Christmas.  All other weeks are regular lessons.  I expect my students to take a lesson every week and the monthly tuition will always be the same, $90/month for 30 minute lessons and $130/month for 45 minute lessons.  This tuition is for 3 private lessons and one group lesson. My schedule does not allow me to offer any make-up lessons.  If you know in advance you will need to miss a lesson please feel free to call another student and switch lesson times with them.  I will provide a schedule with parent’s phone numbers and also post this on the studio bulletin board. The last week of the semester (December 12-16) is a bonus week.  If you have missed a lesson during the semester please consider this your make-up. Otherwise you get an extra lesson.

Fall group lessons will be held at Summerhays Music, 5420 S. Green Street.  The dates for the group lessons are Saturday mornings:  September 10, October 15, November 12 and December 10.  Although group participation is not mandatory, you are paying for it in your tuition and the whole group suffers when people miss.  Please keep in mind some group lessons are used as dress rehearsals before recitals and are mandatory in order to participate in the recital.

During the fall we will prepare for: Suzuki Association of Utah book graduation, Utah Federation of Music Clubs competition, and our studio formal recital. As you are planning your school year schedule please be sure to set out regular, daily practice time.

New students. If you know anyone interested in violin or viola lessons please feel free to tell them about my studio.  There is a Back-to-School Special for new students.  Monthly tuition for 30 minute lessons is $80/month for the first 3 months.  You will also receive a $25 discount for any student you refer that stays at least the whole fall semester (through December).  My Park City studio is very full so I can’t offer discounted tuition but will offer the referral discount if you refer someone who stays through December.
