If your dc have private music lessons can you tell me how and how often you pay please? I don't want to know how much.

Do you pay:

  • for each lesson as it happens - cash or cheque OR
  • monthly, half termly, termly, other - cash, cheque or direct bank transfer

Many thanks.

Cheque in advance, every four weeks.

Cash each week or we can pay in lumps ahead, or we write a cheque afterwards. All very, very relaxed here and music lessons all run by one organisation.

For one teacher we pay trembly by cheque. For the other one we have a monthly SO and sort out overs/unders at the end of each term. I prefer the SO method to be honest. We have to pay the peris at the schools termly so it helps to have one set of fees that are spread. If I could I'd spread everything. I don't mind paying more upfront in order to get the spreading effect (we pay a month in advance).

Termly by bank transfer or cheque. £165 for ten half hour lessons which is a bargain. In contrast I will be paying £270 per term at ds' s school.
