🎵 Private Class Options – General Information
✨ We aim to make music instruction accessible, reliable, and easy to integrate into your routine.
FMI is primarily a small group lesson program. While our core offering is group instruction, we do our best to accommodate alternative lesson environments when possible:
- Online Private Classes – One‑on‑one lessons with a teacher via Zoom or similar platform. (Always Available)
- Private Lessons at School – Available only with teacher permission, as not all schools can accommodate this option.
- In Rare Cases – Lessons at a teacher’s home or in your home. (Very limited availability)
💡 Enrollment Requirement
All private lesson types require only one lesson payment at enrollment.
This initial payment allows us to:
- Create and confirm the appropriate schedule tailored to your needs and teacher availability.
- Secure your place while we finalize lesson arrangements.
Once the schedule is established:
- Ongoing billing will begin in advance of lessons. (Billing happens on the 1st of each month)
- In cases where a teacher is absent or unavailable, a credit will be applied to the following month’s invoice.
📅 Class Schedule
- Available for any age, any instrument.
- Sessions occur at school or another approved location.
- Offered only at select schools and dependent on teacher availability.
- Our online private lessons are flexible enough to be “as Needed” or “On-going”.We work closely with families to create a customized schedule that fits your availability and supports consistent progress.
🕒 Scheduling Highlights
- Weekly lessons at a time that works for you and your teacher.
- Flexible rescheduling options when needed and arranged with your teacher.

🎶Performances
There will be performance opportunities as well. If you attend one of our schools, Online students will be invited to perform on the school concerts.
