TRAINING
FEES
Fees are paid in monthly blocks - 12 payments per year of either £40
or £26 - whether you do one lesson in the month or 20 lessons.
I don't charge those that pay £40 per month for extra lessons
- so please don't deduct money when you do less - or I will start charging
you for the extra lessons. Either this or we go back to paying every
4 weeks which will add up to 13 payments per year instead of 12 payments
per year.
So please do not adjust training fees when you have a holiday or at
Christmas time. Thank you.
