Making it true....
Whether you are a complete beginner or are more experienced and simply want to improve your technique, Sid has the right lessons for you. Catering for both adults and children, start time, location, and length of lessons can be adjusted to suit you. Students have access to flexible lesson rollovers, free string changes (students must provide the strings), and lesson reminders. For young students, parents are encouraged to sit in on lessons and be as involved as possible.

Terms and Conditions
Payments are to be paid by bank transfer, in monthly blocks, with payments due before the first lesson of the month. If payment hasn't been made, the lesson will not go ahead. At the end of each month, you will be asked what you'd like the following month - simple!
If you cancel within 24 hours prior to the lesson, then the lesson needs to be paid for due to overheads. In December, the cancellation period is extended to 48 hours.
Having lessons at home will cost £20 a month. This is on top of your tuition fee and is regardless of how far I’m travelling to attend and how many weeks are in that month.
If a student wants to take an extended break (4 weeks or more) then a retainer fee of £25 a month will be asked for. This will keep your lesson slot.
Thank you.
