MUSIC

The Studio will have all music materials available for purchase for piano and guitar. Guitar students can also find equipment at Marshall Music, Elderly Instruments, and Guitar Center in Lansing and in Grand Rapids.

 

 

PRACTICE GOALS

All students progress if consistent time is given to daily practice.  Parents must be available to encourage good practice habits and to let us know if problems occur.

 

 

MATERIALS

Students should always come to lessons prepared by 

bringing their music and lesson notebook.  

Materials seem to be remembered more easily if they are kept in a music bag.  

Students, please remember to wash your hands before playing the piano 

and keyboard at your lesson to help avoid spreading illness.

 

 

ATTENDANCE and MAKE-UP LESSONS

The scheduled lesson time belongs to the student.

ALL STUDENTS MUST CALL BEFORE A MISSED LESSON.  

We realize there are emergency situations that are exceptions.
