Like learning the piano or violin, singing is a skill that develops through consistent training. Regular lessons build the muscle memory needed for healthy vocal technique to become natural and reliable. Each lesson builds upon the last, allowing students to make steady progress, strengthen healthy habits, and gain confidence over time.The Semester 10-Lesson Package includes 10 private, 60-minute lessons at my preferred package rate of $100 per lesson.Consistency with flexibility built in. Schedule your lessons around what works for you. Take two lessons one week when you're preparing for an audition, skip a week while you're on vacation, or adjust your lesson days and times as school, sports, performances, and other activities change.Your 10 lessons may be any combination of in-person and virtual lessons. I recommend booking all 10 lessons in advance for the best selection of days and times. Your lessons do not need to be consecutive or scheduled on the same day each week.How do I book my 10 lessons?All lessons are scheduled through TidyCal. There is no separate booking type for the Semester 10-Lesson Package.Simply select Private Voice Lesson – In Person or Private Voice Lesson – Virtual and choose your desired lesson dates and times. Your 10 lessons may be any combination of in-person and virtual lessons, and they do not need to be scheduled on the same day or time each week.I recommend booking all 10 lessons at the beginning of the semester for the best selection of dates and times. You can choose a consistent weekly time or mix and match based on your schedule.Once you have booked your 10 lessons, they will be counted as your Semester 10-Lesson Package and billed at the preferred package rate.2026–2027 SemestersFall: September 2 – December 23Winter: January 2 – March 31Spring: April 1 – June 30The Semester Package is a commitment to all 10 lessons at the preferred $100 per lesson rate.

Lesson packages and group lessons are due in full before the first lesson, unless otherwise discussed.Payment may be made by cash (preferred), check, Zelle (EmilyHardmanStudio@gmail.com), or Venmo (@EmilyHardman).Missed Payments:In order to give students my full attention and energy, my focus needs to remain on teaching rather than tracking down payments. Repeated missed payments may result in dismissal from the studio.Cancellations & Rescheduling:All scheduling communication, including cancellations, must be done via email. Lessons canceled with less than 24 hours’ notice will be charged in full.If you cannot attend your scheduled lesson, you may choose one of the following options:Send a friend or sibling to use your lesson timeRequest a recorded lessonSubmit a recent practice video for written feedback If you know in advance that you cannot attend, please provide as much notice as possible so the time may be offered to another student. When I reserve a lesson time for you, it means another student cannot take that slot. I intentionally keep my studio small so I can focus my attention on each individual student.By booking a lesson, you acknowledge and agree to the Emily Hardman Voice Studio Policy.Questions?
