TEACHER ABSENCE: If I am sick and unable to do a lesson, I will notify the parent(s) and offer an option to reschedule. If the lesson cannot be rescheduled, the lesson amount will be deducted from the following month’s invoice.
TUITION & PAYMENT:

YEARLY ADMINISTRATION FEE:
● Each student will be billed a yearly administration fee of 100 AED on September’s

ATTENDANCE:

MEDIA RELEASE:
● Photos and videos of students may be posted online on Miraimusic,
Facebook and Instagram pages. Parents wishing to exempt their child from any published media may do so by providing a written exclusion request.
Discontinuation of Lessons:
To discontinue lessons, the student must provide at least one month's advance written notice. If the student does not provide one month's advance written notice, the student
will be liable for one month's tuition in full, even if no lessons are provided during that month.
I reserve the right to discontinue lessons for any reason. If I decide to terminate lessons, tuition will be pro-rated up to the last lesson taken and a refund provided. The reasons for discontinuation may be:
● Persistent absences and/or tardiness
● Excessive requests for scheduling changes
● Lack of progress due to insufficient practice
Uncooperative attitude or general dislike for piano lesso
