TUITION AND ATTENDANCE POLICIES
Victoria believes that with diligent practice and good instruction, anyone can learn to play the piano. Consistent attendance at lessons and frequent practice, much more than innate talent, are a requirement for students to experience progress and achieve greater skill. The year is divided into three terms:
∞ Fall (Sep 3rd-Jan 30th)
∞ Spring (Feb 1st-June 30th)
∞ Summer (July 1st-Aug 31st)
∞ Fall (Sep 3rd-Jan 30th)
∞ Spring (Feb 1st-June 30th)
∞ Summer (July 1st-Aug 31st)
