I  teach children and adults aged 8 and over. In some circumstances the school may consider younger students, please get in touch for an assessment for your child. 

Not at all. All my students have different needs, and this is always the main priority. Grades from all exam boards can be taught, and while we advocate them, they are never compulsory.

The lessons run every week, apart from Christmas Day and New Year's Day,  if for  any reason you cannot make your weekly slot then you will be offered an alternative day to catchup that lesson.   The payment schedule would remain the same. (payment would be due on the expected 4th lesson of the block).

 In the event that the teacher is unable to carry out a lesson, then another time will be offered, if this is not possible for the student then the lesson would roll over to the next week.

After your first initial lesson, future lessons are reserved and paid for in blocks of 4.  Each subsequent payment is made on the fourth lesson . Payment can be made by BACS transfer (Online Banking).  Currently i do not accept cash or Paypal payments. 

I would kindly ask all parents/students to give four lessons notice if they would like to terminate lessons.

Unfortunately there is no refund for lessons that are booked and not fulfilled by the customer. In any circumstance where Rhythmikal Tuition has to cancel any lesson, the lesson would be rebooked at the convienience of the customer.

Online lessons are very simple to setup. All that is required is a PC/Mac or laptop. Most devices these days have a webcam and microphone built in, but if your device doesn't have one they are very easy and inexpensive to get. Smart phones and Ipads are also good for online lessons, however we do recommend using one of the other options due to the bigger screen size available.

Not necessarily. Many students can learn a great deal about rhythm and time without a drumkit, usng body percussion and other items around the house. In the beginning this is absolutely fine, later on we would recommend purchasing a second hand basic drumkit to really get the most out of the course.

We all know how loud a drumkit can be, but it doesn't have to be a problem anymore! Today we have electronic drumkits which offer near silent practice and performance, without disturbing your neighbours, or you! If you have a traditional acoustic kit, you can place dampeners onto the drums to reduce the noise.
