Private instruction is the foundation for learning and growing in one's musical development. We understand that the right chemistry in a student-teacher relationship is an important part of the learning process. After a consultation with one of our staff regarding a student's unique instructional needs, the student is individually matched with an appropriate instructor, and assigned a lesson day and time at one of our Artisan Music Learning Centers near you.

Lesson /Fees
Tuition is based on the length of the lesson and the number of lessons in each semester. The Fall and Spring semesters typically run 17 weeks each, and the summer semester runs 8 weeks. However, students may begin lessons at any time, and the tuition will be adjusted accordingly.

Lesson Length Lesson Rate Semester Rate (17 weeks)
30 min. $32 $544
45 min. $44 $748
60 min. $54 $918

* An annual $25 registration fee is issued once per family and is not reflected in the standard tuition rates above.

HOME LESSONS
Home lessons are also available on a limited basis depending upon the availability of home instructors in your area. There is a $10 travel fee assessed per home lesson which will be added to the standard tuition.

TRIAL LESSON
Our first lesson serves as a no-obligation trial lesson. This means that as long as you are satisfied with the first lesson and decide to continue, that lesson fee is covered by your tuition. If however, you are not satisfied after the first lesson, we will make every effort to assign another instructor that will be a more suitable match. Or if you simply do not wish to continue, there will be no charge for the lesson rendered.
