For your information and guidance, please take note of the
following:
FOREWORD:
When a student undertakes lessons, the student is undertaking a
responsibility: a responsibility to show up on time for lessons to
bring all materials to practice to pay on time, and; to notify Jays
Music and Arts of cancellations and termination of lessons.
TARDINESS: Please come 5 minutes before your lesson time.
Lessons will end at their scheduled time, regardless of the time of
the Students arrival.
LESSON MATERIALS:
Students are responsible for bringing their instrument/s,
notebook, instruction books, and all related material and hand-outs
to each and every lesson as designated by the teacher. Students are
responsible for the purchase of their own books, instruments, and
other materials needed for the lessons they are receiving. The
teacher will assist in referring our students to where they can
obtain these items. It is advisable for voice students to bring a
bottle of water.
LESSON PRIVACY:
Lessons are given on a one on one basis. Parents are welcome to
sit-in on lessons, but encouraged to allow students to learn in a
student-teacher environment.
PRACTICING:
Good technique can only be achieved through daily practice of
the technical exercises. You are therefore required to practice
such exercises along with your pieces every day. The teacher
instructs how much practice is ideal for each student.
Nevertheless, once the instructor is gone it is up the student to
do their own practicing. (Recommended practice time should be a
half-hour 5-6 days per week) Progress will be made most quickly by
those students who maintain the recommended practicing time.
Parents are also encouraged to be involved in their students
practice. Taking time to listen to your child play their weekly
songs, or creating a set time for practicing in the students daily
routine are good ways to become involved.
NOTE: Remember that we are interested in your progress as much
as you are, but the person who will work for this progress to occur
is you.

development. Students are responsible for their time slot. A one
free lesson credit is given to any student who has perfect
attendance over a three month period.
