MUSIC STUDENTS
Each student will have a list of required materials selected by their instructor. When materials are forgotten (i.e. music books, note books / binders, instruments etc) it can hinder the lesson and your students ability to move forward.
​
Students who arrive to their lessons without their required materials may have their lesson cancelled or rescheduled at the discretion of the instructor.
