FAQs

  • TIME: Time slots are between the hours of 3pm - 9pm Mondays and Wednesdays 3pm - 7:00 on Tuesdays. The option of every other week may be available for some time slots if I can find someone to alternate with you.

  • PRICE: $25/half hour $50/hour · I don’t recommend more than a half hour for anyone under the age of 14. I will, however, suggest an hour if I feel like more time is needed! (VENMO if you prefer to use it: @JennStrawn)

  • I am as flexible as I can be with everyone with the expectation that everyone can be equally as flexible with me. I understand people get sick, emergencies happen, and life introduces challenges weekly that can make scheduling difficult. I also have tours that pop up throughout the year which make me unavailable unless via video while I’m on the road. With that said, I ask all students and parents to give me at least 24 hour notice for cancellations. This allows me the option to either fill the open slot or shift so that I do not have gaps in my schedule.

  • My time is very limited outside of the time I dedicate for teaching. I have an entertainment company that requires an extreme amount of time (especially in the Summer and Fall), so please be patient with any requests you have of me outside of your time slot.

  • I treat everyone as a unique individual. Everyone learns differently. My expectations do not change though. I want the very best from each and every single person. I’ve had to work very hard to “play” music, and to me, it is the most rewarding career. It may not be for everyone, but I strive to fulfill as many dreams for those who work with me as I can.

  • SIMPLY: Give me your best and I will give you mine!! Put in the time and you will get better…if you don’t, you simply can’t improve.

  • Have fun with this. Push the boundaries. Be patient. Be driven. Be open to all new experiences and suggestions from me. I promise I’m suggesting things for a very good reason!

  • HOUSE RULES: Unfortunately, I do not have a waiting room since I teach out of my studio at home. Please respect my family by not hanging out in the house prior to lessons. I pay attention (and I ask everyone else does out of respect for each other) on time limits this year to help keep a smooth transition between everyone so that no one gets a lesson cut short. My family is used to people walking in and coming straight back, so knocking is an option, but we are very used to people just coming in. We have cats…please always shut the door behind you. They won’t survive outdoors, I don’t think they have the brains!
