Regular Weekly lessons (both adults and kids)
Eastbourne Music Tuition no longer offers term time only lessons after (3:30pm) school hours.
For optimal progress, pupils are encouraged to attend lessons weekly. The regular weekly rate is intended for those receiving a lesson on the same day and at the same time each week, therefore it is not suitable for most adult shift workers. A contract with direct debit mandate is required to achieve these prices.
30 minute lessons £80 a month
45 minute lessons £120 a month
60 minute lessons £160 a month
Eastbourne Music Tuition remains operational and conducts lessons even during school holidays. Lessons scheduled on a bank holiday incur no additional fees, and clients will be informed in advance if business is closed.
In cases of illness, Zoom or WhatsApp lessons are available as substitutes at your designated lesson time.
Initial trial lessons
In order to meet your teacher and ensure you are happy to sign up to lessons with Eastbourne Music Tuition we welcome you to try an initial lessons paid separately. Each lesson must be paid a minimum of 48hrs before your lesson. The 48 hour cancellation policy applies, with lessons forfeited for short notice cancellation or changes.
Adult lessons- Irregular/Flexible lessons
For those who cannot attend regularly weekly lessons at the same time due to work commitments, travel etc, we continue to offer a flexible fee of £47.00 per hour or £23.50 per half-hour for daytime lessons (lessons finishing before 3.30pm)
Pre-arranged absences will not incur charges provided that at least 48 hours' notice is given.
Payments are accepted via BACs or cash. Lessons cancelled by the client with less than 48 hours' notice will be charged. In cases of illness, we offer Zoom or WhatsApp lessons as an alternative at the standard in-person rate. Either party may terminate lessons with one week's notice, and a refund for any pre-paid lessons will be processed within 14 days.
