Upbeat Music Academy Kelowna Lesson Policies

 

Reserved Lesson Time

  • Your weekly lesson time is reserved just for you. Tuition secures your instructor’s scheduled teaching time each week.
  • If you need to miss a lesson, please notify your instructor by 10:00 AM on the day of the lesson, or earlier if possible.
  • Missed lessons cannot always be rescheduled, but we will always do our best when advance notice is provided. When notice is received by 10:00 AM, we will prioritize offering a make-up lesson if availability allows.
  • Because our teaching schedule is often full, make-up lessons cannot be guaranteed and are offered as a courtesy when openings arise. There are no refunds for missed lessons.

Students may also:

  • Send another family member in their place for the scheduled lesson

  • Arrange a Zoom lesson if they are unable to attend in person.

Please notify the instructor by phone, text, or email:

📞 Lora: 250-317-3685

📞 Noel: 250-681-4067

  • Instructors are not obligated to provide make-up lessons or lesson credits but may do so at their discretion.

  • A maximum of three (3) make-up lessons per school year may be provided.

  • A make-up lesson cannot be offered unless the instructor is notified by 10:00 AM on the day of the scheduled lesson.

  • No-shows or missed make-up lessons cannot be rescheduled.

     



Instructor Absence

  • If an instructor must cancel a lesson, a make-up lesson will be provided.

Lesson Termination

  • If you wish to withdraw from lessons, two (2) weeks’ notice is required.

  • Tuition payments must remain up to date to maintain lesson enrollment.

“I took Piano lessons with Lora for 8 years. I now use the skills Lora taught me to play by ear and teach myself new music with no help. I would have not wanted to learn from anyone else.”
