All lessons take place in my home studio in the St. George area of Baton Rouge, only 20 minutes from Gonzales. If you aren't local or cannot travel, I also offer lessons online via Skype, ooVoo, Facetime, or Google+. For this, it is recommended you have a good internet connection, external microphone, and headphones.

Group Singing Lessons are offered to small groups. Get a few of your best friends together and have a great time singing together! For an additional fee, I can even bring the keyboard to you! (Required 2-5 people)
PREPARATION
Students are expected to come to their lessons prepared. This will mean different things for each student. This will always include coming to lessons with all of your materials including assigned music and a pencil. In the rare case that a student leaves their music behind or does not complete the preparation asked, the instructor reserves the right to end the lesson early.
CANCELLATIONS
The instructor will do everything possible to schedule lessons without conflicts. When conflicts are unavoidable and the instructor must cancel, the lesson will be made up or credited to the next month. Your time is important, and every effort will be made to make up missed lessons in a timely manner.
Students may cancel a lesson for any reason and a make-up lesson will be given if 24 hours notice is given to the instructor. Generally, if a lesson is canceled without 24 hours of notice before the scheduled lesson time, the student is not eligible for a make-up lesson and YOU WILL BE CHARGED. Emergencies will be dealt with on a case-by-case basis.
PURCHASE AND PAYMENT
There will be one $25 30-minute trial lesson to meet and discuss policies. After the trial period, lessons can either be paid monthly, or at the time of the lesson. All fees must be paid in full before lessons will be given.
Payments can be made in the following ways:
1. Cash
2. Check ($15 fee applied to bounced checks)
3. PayPal
4. Charge (All major credit cards accepted)
DISCOUNTS
One free lesson will be credited to students who recommend another student to me, so long as the recommended student studies for at least one month.
