Philosophy At Woodland Fine Arts Academy we believe the best way to learn an instrument is with private instruction. Whether you are interested in lessons for voice, piano, guitar, or drums, you will receive the individual attention you deserve with a well-rounded course of study designed especially for you to achieve your personal musical goals. Our teachers are highly qualified and have the experience to offer instruction to musicians of any age and skill level. We believe that we are created by God unique gifts and talent, and we seek to honor him in all we do.

PRIVATE LESSON FAQ
Do I need my own instrument at home?We supply drums & piano, all others will need to bring their instrument for lessons.
|
Do I need to bring my own instrument from home?Yes. All teachers will assign practice for home. A keyboard is fine for piano lessons. (Exception: you do not necessarily need a full drum set for drum lessons.)
|
May I watch my child's lesson?It depends on the instructor. As a general rule, students show more improvement and better behavior when the parent is not present in the room. Parents are welcome to attend a lesson from time to time in order to observe the teaching situation. Siblings and other friends are not to attend lessons with the student, but may wait in the lobby area of the building.
|
What if my child is sick & cannot make his lesson?We ask that you contact the teacher directly (not through the academy director or the church office). All of our teachers are welcome to give you their personal cell phone numbers. Only ONE make up lesson will be offered per term. Any other missed lessons, fees will be forfeited.
|
Will there be a recital?Yes. We have one annual recital in April. Students are encouraged to participate, but not required.
|
What is your attendance/make-up policy?Your lesson time is reserved especially for you, therefore advanced notice is required for absence from any lesson. Due to our teachers' busy schedules, please refrain from rescheduling and keep your appointed lesson time. If you need to reschedule, please give at least 24 hours advance notice. If you are absent due to illness or a serious emergency, please contact the teacher as soon as you know that you will not be able to attend the appointed lesson. One make-up lesson per semester/per student, will be permitted if prior notice is given, at a mutually agreed upon time with the teacher. It is your responsibility to schedule your make-up lesson with the teacher. If a student fails to give resonable notice in advance, the lesson in question may be forfeited. Please understand that you will be charged and expected to pay for lessons offered, not lessons received.
