The tuition cost for one month of private lessons in voice, violin, viola, cello, guitar, or piano is $60.  This is for one lesson per week for half an hour.  Most months have four lessons.  However, some months may have three or five lessons.

Instructors must be notified 24 hours in advance if a student will miss a lesson in order for a make-up lesson to be scheduled.  If you cannot reach your instructor, please call the SoLa office to leave a message for them.  Make-up lessons are scheduled at the discretion of the instructor.  If you choose not to accept a make-up lesson, the fee for that lesson will be forfeited.
