I&#8217;m in the EST(UTC-5) time zone; if you contact me regarding scheduling, please include your time zone. Most of my teaching is currently on Mondays and Wednesdays, but I currently have availability on other weekdays as well.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Scheduling<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>If a lesson needs to be rescheduled then tuition can be forwarded to the following month or refunded. Students are free to take weeks off, and I prefer to have 48-hours advance notice if a lesson is going to be rescheduled, but I can be flexible as long as no-call\/no-shows are infrequent and for legitimate reasons.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Connecting<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>I prefer to use Google Meet, but I use Zoom as well. Both are used because of their advanced functionality, such as screen sharing, whiteboard, and file transmission.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Billing<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>Tuition for the upcoming month is due by the 5th. Payments can be made using either Venmo or Paypal. My current rate is $25USD per 30min lesson, or $50 per 1-hour lesson. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:15px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-columns has-black-background-color has-background is-layout-flex wp-container-core-columns-is-layout-9d6595d7 wp-block-columns-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-vertically-aligned-center has-black-background-color has-background is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\" style=\"flex-basis:60%\">\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center has-black-background-color has-text-color has-background\" style=\"color:#a56e06\"><strong>Have questions?
