InstrumentRentals

String Lesson Program students at CMC have a choice of two distinct ways of studying their instrument in weekly lessons . The age of the student, as well as how much the parent is able to attend lessons and work with the student at home will have a large part to play in making this choice .

Traditional (Teacher/Student) Method: This is the classic one-to-one approach to learning an instru-ment . The string player will practice every day at home be-tween lessons on assignments given by the instructor . Parent involvement is not required, however parents of young stu-dents are often encouraged by the instructor to assist the child in the practice room . Parent observation of lessons is usually optional (but is recommended under age 10) . Parents do not have to be musically trained .

Teacher/Parent/Student method (Suzuki):This is a family approach to music instruction that creates a “learning triangle” between teacher, parent & student . The parent, who does not need to have prior musical training, learns with the student & serves as the role model for the young player between lessons . Parents assist the student in their practice at home each day as assigned by the instructor . When the student is not practicing the family listens to the recordings of the songs as much as possible to create the im-mersion that the method requires for the best learning experi-ence . The goal is that music becomes like another language in the home . Parents are required to attend the Suzuki Parent Orientation class in September (see below) prior to placement with their first teacher .

Parent Orientation to Suzuki age: 18 & upBuild harmonious connections at home! Discover the important dynamics of student, teacher & parent/guardian in this method . Observe demonstrations, get insightful information & find the confidence needed to help beginning violin viola & cello students succeed . This class is required for placement with a Suzuki instructor .Offered in September See Fall 2014 Catalog

Suzuki vs . Traditional: which method should I choose?



For Registration Process, see Page 15

Practice RequirementsIt is important that students take lessons seriously, practice every day (at least as long as their lesson length), complete any homework assigned by instructors & progress in-step with their ability to learn .

Students not progressing in-step with their ability to learn will receive instruction on how to improve practice habits . If no progress is made, CMC will require the student & parent to sign an agreement on how to improve practice .

Attendance Requirements & PoliciesBecause regular attendance is important, lessons & classes should not be missed except in unavoidable instances . As a courtesy to everyone an absence affects, the CMC office should be notified as much in advance as possible to allow for instructor schedule adjustments . Absences are classified as either Excused or Unexcused .

Excused Absence: Student illness or other unavoid-able cause with notification as defined below . Excused absences not made up will be credited .

Student Illness - CMC is notified at least one hour before the scheduled lesson time . Only one illness per term may be excused .Other Unavoidable Causes - CMC is notified at least one week before the scheduled lesson time . This allows time to notify the teacher and make necessary schedule changes .

Unexcused Absence: Any cause not listed above . No credits or make-ups will be offered for Unexcused Absences.NOTE: A student may be dropped for two Unexcused Absences a term, three Excused Absences in a row, or four Excused Absences during a term .

Because space is limited, a student may be dropped from the program if any of the above requirements

are not met.

CMC’s Private Lesson Program for Youth strives to provide the high-est quality music education to as many dedicated stu-dents as possible, regardless of the ability to pay . In a continuing effort to achieve these goals, students & par-ents should seriously con-sider the following require-ments before committing to take lessons at CMC .

PrivateLessonProgramPolicyInformation-String,Winds,Brass&Voice

Musicianship Requirement - Strings only *Applies to School Year Lessons*

The CMC String Program for Youth is more than just les-sons . It is a sequential curriculum designed to foster well-rounded musicians . To this end, CMC makes the following requirements for students taking lessons September - June:

Beginning string students age 5 and up are required to concurrently enroll in, attend regularly & do satisfac-tory work in a Music Skills class (see School Year catalog for information, or inquire at the office) . Four year-olds are exempt from this requirement, but are encouraged to take Launch Pad to Learning & are required to take Skills at age 5 .

Continuing string students are required to concur-rently enroll in, attend regularly, and do satisfactory work in Skills or other ensemble class (see School Year catalog for more information) . Students who are receiv-ing training of like quality elsewhere may apply for an exemption from an additional CMC activity .Woodwind & brass students are currently exempt from the musicianship requirement, but are welcome to take any enrichment class at the reduced fee .

Withdrawal PolicyOnce accepted, the lesson time is reserved for your child through Summer term . CMC understands that extenuating circumstances arise & occasionally a student must withdraw before summer ends . Because of the effort it takes to set up teacher schedules, CMC’s withdrawal policy for private lessons is as follows:Notify the CMC office one full week before the next lesson & a refund of paid fees will be issued for the remaining lessons in the term . NOTE: This policy is dif-ferent than the general PP&R withdrawal policy .



This schedule is provided as a reference for returning students.

Please Note: On your Pre-Registration form(s) it is helpful to list ALL times that you can possibly come for a lesson.

Instructor days & times are tentative as of this printing & may change by July.

Private Lesson Program for Youth – Program RequirementsCMC's Private Lesson Program for Youth strives to provide the highest-quality music education to as many dedicated students as possible, regardless of ability to pay. To this end, CMC makes the following requirements, which parents & students should carefully consider before committing to lessons at CMC.

1. Practice RequirementsStudents should practice daily for at least as much time as their lesson length, complete any homework assigned by instructors, & progress in keeping with their ability to learn.NOTE: Students who fail to progress to the best of their ability will receive instruction on how to improve practice habits. If progress is still not made, CMC will require the student & parent to sign and fulfill a practice-improvement agreement.

2. Musicianship Requirements Only for String students during School Year - Waived Summer Term

The CMC String program is more than just lessons. It is a sequential curriculum designed to foster well-rounded musicians.• Beginning string students are required to enroll in, attend regularly, and do satisfactory work in Basic Skills, On My Way With Basic Skills, Skills I, or Theory & Practice. Four-year-olds are excused from this requirement, but are encouraged to take Launch Pad to Learning Music or Basic Skills, & are required to take Skills at age 5. String Program students may take these courses at a reduced fee ($15 in 2013-14).• Continuing string students are required to enroll in, attend regularly, and do satisfactory work in an appropriate Skills class, Orchestra, Choir, Voice, Piano, Guitar, Suzuki Group Class, or Chamber Music (fees vary; see school year catalog or ask the office about prerequisites, special requirements, schedules & pricing).• Themusicianshiprequirementmaybesatisfiedifthestudentisreceivingcomparabletrainingelsewhere.Thismustbedocumented with an Exemption Form. See the CMC office for details.• StudentswhobegininSummerbecomesubjecttothemusicianshiprequirementuponenrollingforFallTerm.

3. Attendance Requirements & PoliciesRegular attendance is important. Lessons & classes should not be missed except in unavoidable circumstances. When a student must be absent, notify the CMC office as much in advance as possible to allow for instructor schedule adjustments. Absences are either excused or unexcused, as defined below:Excused Absence: • StudentIllness–CMCmustbenotifiedatleastonehourbeforethescheduledlessontime.Onlyoneillnesspertermmay be Excused. Subsequent illnesses will be Unexcused.• OtherUnavoidableCauses–CMCmustbenotifiedatleastoneweekbeforethescheduledlessontime.Thisallowstime to notify the teacher & make schedule adjustments.

Extenuating circumstances may be considered on a case-by-case basis.

5. Withdrawal PolicyOnce accepted, the lesson time is reserved for your child through Summer Term. CMC understands that extenuating circum-stances arise and occasionally a student must withdraw before Summer ends. Because of the effort it takes to set up teacher schedules, CMC’s withdrawal policy for private lessons is as follows:• NotifytheCMCofficeonefullweekbeforethenextlesson&arefundofpaidfeeswillbeissuedforthelessonsthatremain in the term. NOTE: This policy is different than the general PP&R withdrawal policy.
