Fees, Terms and Conditions

Current status:

Peak-times (3.30pm – 7.00pm): Waiting list.  Please do contact me if you would like to be added to my waiting list.

Non-peak times (before 3.30pm): Limited availability for adults or pre-schoolers.  Please do contact me if you would like further details or to be added to my waiting list.

Terms and Conditions:

1)     Fees: September 2023 – August 2024

a)     30 minute lesson: £28

b)     45 minute lesson: £42

c)      60 minute lesson: £56

2)     The first two lessons will be on a trial basis where payment is made on the day. These lessons allow me to assess the student’s readiness for lessons and allow you to confirm that you wish to continue.

3)     Payment will then be required for a minimum of 6 lessons in advance.

4)     Renewal payments are due by the last lesson of the current block in order to secure the same time slot for the following 6-weeks; I will remind you in person or in writing the week prior to the payment being due.

5)      All lessons that fall within term-time must be paid for regardless of whether they are taken (i.e. the term dates for London Borough of Richmond-upon-Thames’ schools – no account is taken of individual schools’ inset days or other differences to these published dates). If you wish to reschedule a lesson within the same week, 48-hours’ notice is required. Although I will do my best to re-schedule, this is not guaranteed (and, please note, with a full teaching schedule this is unlikely).   The exception to this is if I have to cancel a term-time lesson myself then I will carry your payment forward to the following lesson.  (Although I work during some school holidays, I do not insist that lessons are taken or normal times adhered to during these – however, if a lesson is booked during a holiday period then 24 hours’ notice cancellation is required).

6) Two weeks’ notice is required for discontinuation of lessons, (or, for adults on fortnightly lessons, four weeks’ notice).

For adult students, I also offer an ad-hoc contract, at a slightly higher rate, for those who are not able to commit to regular weekly or fortnightly lessons.  Full details available on request.
