Fall lessons

After August 15, I will begin to contact returning students to schedule lesson times. Once I have scheduled them as much as is possible, I will begin contacting new students about lesson times for the fall. Year-round adult students will retain their times.

Available lesson times

Mondays 10 until 4:15

Tuesdays 10 until 4pm

Wednesdays 10 until 4:15 pm

Wednesdays after 5:45 pm

Thursdays 3:45-4:30

Fridays 4:30 - 5

Fridays 6-6:30

Important date changes

The recital will be Feb. 3 at 2 pm.

I will be away Jan. 19-22.

Winter vacation dates

I am not teaching Saturday, Dec. 15, and Friday, Dec. 21 is my last day of teaching in 2007. I expect to resume all lessons on Wed., Jan. 2. If you will not be at a lesson in those first few days of January, please remember that you need to provide a full weeks' notice to skip the week and 24 hours' notice to reschedule.

I am also away January 19-21 for Martin Luther King Fr. weekend. I may additionally be out of town on January 18. I will let you know as soon as I do.

Open times as of today

I currently have available time in my home studio on Thursdays until 4 pm. The 4:30 time is no longer available.

Beginning in February, I will be offering the following additional times:
Mondays until 4:15
Tuesdays until 4pm
Wednesdays until 4:30 pm
Wednesdays at 5:30 pm.

Next recital

All students are invited to participate in my studio recital at 1pm, Sunday, February 10. I think I successfully avoid school vacations as well as Superbowl Sunday with that date. I can accommodate about 28 performers and guests. Once I reach that number, I will determine if a second performance at 2:30 or 3 is needed. If it is, the first to sign up for the 1pm recital will have the first opportunity to move to the later time if that is more convenient.

Current lesson times available

I have had some schedule changes. Please note, students who begin lessons NOW need to plan on lessons for at least part of the summer in order to get some momentum and continuity going:

Possibilities for 30 min. lessons

• Mondays, 5:45
  
• Tuesdays, 4pm
• Thursdays, 3:30pm, 5:30pm

Possibilities for 45 min. lessons

• Mondays, 5:45
  
• Thursdays, 3:15pm

Please note that I have a friendly fluffy cocker spaniel who goes to doggie daycare most Tuesdays and Thursdays, but enjoys greeting my Monday students. Students with Monday lessons will be happiest if they like dogs. Very small children or anyone who feels uncomfortable around dogs would be happiest with a Tuesday or Thursday lesson.
