Invariably, there is stuff from First Lesson Night that I forget to share with you, and some questions that parents ask me, that I wish I could answer so everyone can hear the repsonse. So here goes!
Q: When do lessons start?
A: Monday, September 20th. That doesn't mean everyone's lesson is on Monday. They are scheduled throughout the week, and different times. Your child's lesson will always be on the same day, but at different times each week.
Q: When will we know when our child's lesson is? How will we know?
A: Students and Teachers will have this information by Friday September 17th.
Q: How are grades determined?
A: I don't do grades for the first quarter - I don't think that it is fair to judge 4 or 5 weeks of lessons wjen someone is just starting an instrument. Grades will start the 2nd quarter, and are based on Home Practice and Performance in Lessons.
Q: What was the name of the Software you talked about?
A. SmartMusic, which is on the CD or DVD that came with the lesson book. It can also be downloaded from http://www.smartmusic.com/ or installed from the disc in the "Starter Pack" you may have ordered!
Q: How can I get a hold of you if I have a question?
A: The easiest way is email (wburlison@albionk12.org), but I can also be reached at 585-589-8989, extensions 8368.
