When is tuition available?
We usually offer lessons for approximately 33 weeks of the year and at present are giving 36 hours of tuition a week.
Dates and Times of Tuition
- Lessons are available for 20 minutes, 30 minutes, 45 minutes and an hour. Prices are available by Clicking Here.
- It is recommended that pupils of approximately Grade 5 standard and higher should consider having lessons of at least 45 minutes in ength to enable the teacher to concentrate on more advanced aspects of technique.
- It is possible to sign up for a short series of lessons but most people anticipate having approximately 33 to 36 lessons in each academic year (September to July). The North Yorkshire County Council's peripatetic music service only guarantees to give 25 lessons a year to its pupils (Approximately half of the year!), leaving huge gaps in the continuity of lessons. To avoid this situation, we aim to give lessons every week that the school building is open.
- If you wish to receive aural tuition and accompaniment practice for an examination, we can provide lessons on a half term or full term basis.
- Lessons are not given during school holidays. However, we may be able to arrange occasional lessons throughout school holiday periods if alternative premises are available.
- The majority of lessons take place between 3.30pm and 8.00pm on weekdays, although it may be possible to provide lessons on a Saturday morning subject to demand.
- Ask if you have any particular requirements or suggestions and we will do our best to accommodate you. Contact Us
