We can be reached at my studio (403) 374-0833 or you can leave us a message on our voice mail or email us at info@vivamusicastudio.ca (The best way is to email during non-studio hours.)
- In case of absence:
Group:no make-up will be provideddue to the nature of a group class setting. Please notify us before the lesson and we can arrange material for student to take home or to attend another teacher’s class in a pre-arranged time only. Lesson recording service is available at $5 (student must bring in their own USB storage device) and it is available upon request prior to lesson starts.
Private:24 hours notice is mandatory for anyone to cancel a lesson (no exceptions). We can try to schedule a make up lesson later if possible. A no show to lesson will result in forfeiting lesson fee and no make-up will be provided (regardless of reason).
- Private lesson: we expect to have 40 lessons in the 10 month school year from Sep – June. Any remaining lessons unused during the school year should be scheduled for lessons in summer months of July and August. We will NOT carry over lesson remaining to the following school year. Teachers will be expected to rearrange lesson time if teachers cancel. We will only carry up to 8 makeup lessons maximum to summer if students cancel the lessons.
- Group lesson:we expect to have 33 lessons in the 9 month school year from Sept to May. Teachers may combine lessons if necessary to finish the last class, one week after the recital if necessary. (Parents will be notified during class). Lessons will run until early June due to academy holidays.
- In case of terminating lesson during the school year, one-month notice and penalty is required. Students are encouraged to stay throughout the year since the specific time spot is reserved for you. Please contact Ms. Jessica directly if you have any special circumstances.
