Pricing for both private and group classes is set up in tiers. Pricing tiers keep thing simple and have been developed to reflect the varying sizes of classes and the preparations required to conduct them.
For group classes, differing tiers represent the following factors
- Parent involvement in class with the youngest learners (i.e., the Family Class)
- The number of participants (i.e., although all of our classes are small, some are ultra small,)
- The amount of instrumentation and set up required (i.e. keyboard group: outlets, adapters, music stands materials)
- The amount of individualized attention requried by the curriculum (i.e., vocal solos or instrument tuning)
