CSM Rate & Payment Schedule

Effective January 1st, 2023

Introductory Lesson:

We offer new students a one-time, 30-minute, introductory lesson at no charge. This is a great way for new students to try our studio, meet a teacher, and see if lessons at Certain Sparks Music are right for you. 

Lesson Rate: 

Tuition for all instruments & teachers will be $135 for 4 x 30 minute lessons.

Discounts:

We‘re happy to offer a 10% sibling discount. When one student pays full tuition, each additional sibling is eligible for a 10% discount from their tuition, when paying for both at the same time. 

We also offer a $30 discount when you prepay for 3 lesson cycles. $375 for 12 x 30 minute lessons.

Effective 1/1/23, we will no longer offer any other discounts on tuition.

Payment Structure:

Tuition covers 4 consecutive lessons. This is referred to as one “lesson cycle”. Lessons are once per week for 30 minutes. More frequent lessons can be arranged by request & teacher approval.

Cancellation:

Cancellation policy is HERE.

Payment Schedule:

Payment for a lesson cycle is DUE at the first paid lesson. A late payment fee of $25 will be applied to tuition overdue by later than 7 days. Please note that a ‘lesson cycle” is NOT by month, but rather by a count of 4 consecutive weeks of lessons, often starting somewhere in the middle of a calendar month.

Autopay Option:

We are now offering an easy-peasy, auto-pay option.. To enroll, send an email to averyL0509@gmail.com with subject line AUTOPAY & your student’s name, and Avery will follow up with confirmation.

Auto-pay is highly encouraged!
