Absences & Missed Lessons

Students, under the age of 18, enrolled at Adami Music Academy may receive up to four Make-Up Opportunities per calendar year for missed lessons. Make-ups are provided through our Group Studio Classes.
​

The number of Make-Up Opportunities available to new students is based on the month in which they enroll:

    January–April: up to 4 Make-Up Opportunities.

    May–August: up to 3 Make-Up Opportunities.

    September–December: up to 2 Make-Up Opportunities.

 

Unused Make-Up Opportunities do not carry over and cannot be exchanged for refunds or tuition credits.

 

To qualify for a Make-Up Opportunity, the student or parent/guardian must notify Adami Music Academy at least 24 hours before the start of the scheduled lesson. Providing notice of an absence does not automatically guarantee a make-up and does not result in a refund or tuition credit.

 

After timely notice is received, the student/parent will receive an email with instructions to complete the Studio Class Request Form. Once the form is submitted, the student will be scheduled for an available Group Studio Class. 

 

Once a make-up date has been scheduled, it cannot be rescheduled or transferred to another Group Studio Class. If the student is unable to attend the scheduled make-up, the Make-Up Opportunity will be considered used. It is the student/parent’s responsibility to ensure availability for the scheduled Group Studio Class.

 

If less than 24 hours’ notice is provided, or no notice is provided, the lesson will be considered a regular missed lesson. The lesson will be charged and will not be eligible for a make-up, refund, or credit.

 

Once all available Make-Up Opportunities have been used, any additional student absences will be charged and will not be eligible for a make-up, refund, or credit.

 

Adami Music Academy does not allow sibling/relative makeup lesson swap, or substitution.

 

​Adami Music Academy does not provide makeup lessons for students over the age of 18.

 

Refunds

Adami Music Academy does not issue refunds or tuition credits for student absences.

 

Tuition reserves the student’s dedicated weekly lesson time and is based on enrollment, not attendance.

 

Providing advance notice of an absence does not entitle the student to a refund or tuition credit. Eligible students may receive a Group Studio Class make-up only as described in the Absences & Missed Lessons Policy section.

 

There will be no refunds or class credits for termination or pause of lessons after the beginning of the applicable billing month.

 

All requests to pause or terminate lessons must be submitted no later than 7 days before the first day of the next month.

 

Requests received after this deadline will take effect the following billing month, and the student remains responsible for the current month’s tuition.

 

Online Lessons

Students may request to take their regularly scheduled lesson online via Zoom when they are unable to attend in person.

 

The Online Lesson Request Form must be submitted at least 24 hours before the scheduled lesson.

 

Online lessons are held at the student’s regularly scheduled lesson day and time and cannot be rescheduled to a different day or time.

 

Students are responsible for having the necessary equipment and a reliable internet connection for their online lesson.

 

Teacher Absences

If a teacher is unable to provide a regularly scheduled lesson, then the academy will provide a substitute teacher.

If the academy is not able to find a substitute teacher, then the academy will arrange a private make-up lesson for the student. The make-up lesson will be scheduled based on teacher and student availability.

 

Teacher absences do not count toward the student’s annual Make-Up Opportunities.
