Meet and Greet

We love hosting 15-minute Meet & Greets with potential new students and families. During this time, we can answer any and all questions as well as give you a tour of our studio. The Meet & Greet teacher will provide a mini-lesson to get to know your student and evaluate their starting level. They also will help match them with the right teacher according to availability, goals, and personality.

Tuition Payment

Students may start lessons at any time during the year. Enrollment is always open. Tuition is calculated with 16 lessons of instruction in the Fall semester and 16 lessons of instruction in the Spring semester. This is 32 weeks of lessons from mid-August to mid-May. Some months students may have five lessons and other months they may have two, but the tuition will even out over the course of the semester with prorated equal payments. Students may also pay for the semester in full. Committing to lessons means you’re committing to the semester. Sunday and Monday lessons are calculated based on 28 weeks across the school year. Monthly Tuition Rates: Sunday and Monday lessons range between $120-$152/month & Tuesday thru Saturday lessons are $137-$172/month depending on the specific teacher. Tuition is due the first lesson of each month. If tuition is not paid on time, a $20 late fee will be assessed. If tuition is not paid by the second lesson of the month, lessons will be discontinued until tuition for that month is paid in full. We also offer lesson packages for adults and students who prefer a set of lessons. These prices range depending on the specific teacher: Four 30-min lessons for $154-$172, Six 30-min lessons for $225-$258, and Eight 30-min lessons for $305-$340. Our Summer semester offers families and teachers flexibility. We have individualized lessons packages to best fit your needs. We also have amazing camps for various age groups and interests. Taking summer lesson ensures priority scheduling with us in the fall. Please visit the Classes and More section of the website for more details. Please contact your individual teachers for payment methods.

Recitals

Legacy Music Studio offers two recitals a year. Recitals are not a requirement but viewed as a performance opportunity. Not all instruments/teachers participate in recitals. Please check with your specific teacher before registering for a recital. Recital Registration is on the website with specific deadline dates. Students have separate recital fees per instrument. For example, if Brenner takes violin, voice, and piano and opts to perform as a violinist, vocalist, and pianist, then his parents pay for three recital registrations. If he opts to perform twice (one as a violinist and the other as a combined piano/vocals) then his parents pay for two Recital Registrations.

Makeup Lessons

Makeup lessons are at the discretion of each instructor. Students may have ONE make up lesson per semester. If your instructor is unable to make a lesson, then they may reach out to reschedule or they may provide a sub. Families will be given a detailed Attendance Expectations document upon enrollment. This policy is in place to help encourage consistent attendance and consistent progress in the student.  Thank you for your cooperation in this.

Preparation for Lessons

Students are expected to come to their lesson prepared: on time, with all materials, and well-practiced from the previous week’s lesson. As a general rule, most students should practice 4-5 times a week for 20-30 minutes. Beginner students will practice less at first. If a student comes to the lesson unprepared, then we will have them use their lesson time for practice and re-teaching. Keep in mind that practicing is going over a song multiple times (3X-5X) a day and reworking the more difficult parts. Running through a song from start to finish once is NOT practicing. Teachers write specific instructions for the students in their assignment spiral, so encourage your student to refer to the spiral to know what to work on.

Visitors to Lessons

In the past, we have allowed parents and siblings to sit in on a student’s lesson time. Unfortunately, this has proven to be more of a distraction than a help. Therefore, no visitors are allowed to stay in the teaching area during the lesson time. If you want to sit in our waiting area from time to time, then that is fine. You are welcome to sit in your vehicle, enjoy Old Town Lewisville’s many stores/vendors, or sit in our designated waiting area.
