Private Lesson Information 2020-2021
We would like to take this opportunity to reach out and let everyone know about the changes to the music program district-wide in Medfield and how those changes will affect the Private Lesson Program. Due to restrictions on playing, singing, and facilities, we will not be offering a Private Lesson Program on site this year. However, we will be facilitating partnering students with private lesson teachers from our program so that they can continue working with our fantastic teachers. When remote learning began in March, the overwhelming feedback was that online private lessons worked extremely well and that students could continue to grow given the 1-to-1 personalized instruction they could receive in this format.
Given the change in format of the lesson program here are the details:
-Families interested in private lessons should reach out directly to our lesson staff.
-You will arrange a lesson time for your student and make all arrangements for payments directly with the teacher.
-If you have already studied with a teacher in our program they will most likely be reaching out (or already have reached out) to you. If you are new to the program, simply contact the person listed for the instrument you’d like to study.
-Teachers listed as resources have completed a CORI check (at a minimum) for the Medfield Public Schools.
-As lessons are not run through the Medfield school system, teachers will have their own rates.
