PERCUSSION LESSONS

Studio Policies

Private Studio Locations:  The primary teaching studio of Trevor Barroero is located in Athens, Georgia near the UGA Campus.  However, a majority of Trevor's students live outside of Georgia and are currently enrolled in Virtual Lessons.  Students partaking in Virtual Lessons (via Skype, FaceTime, etc) have the added flexibility of staying at home and performing on their own instruments for each lesson.  Trevor's virtual students have reported no diminishment in quality of instruction and continue to win auditions, competitions, and scholarships. 

Areas of Study:  Students will develop skills on snare drum, drum set, mallet percussion (marimba, vibraphone, xylophone, glockenspiel), timpani, marching percussion, world percussion, and auxiliary percussion.  While each student may choose to specialize on a particular instrument later in his or her studies, this studio thrives on the concept of Total Percussion.  

Practice: ALL students are expected to practice regularly and diligently.  The amount of time to be practiced daily will be discussed individually with each student / parent.  It is expected that the student will journal his or her daily practice in a detailed manner.  This journal is designed to organize the student's work, track learning curves, and improve efficiency.  Each entry should include the date, minutes spent, instrument practiced, tempo ranges, number of repetitions (as appropriate), and any other details pertinent to that practice session.  The more detail the student includes, the more can be learned from this journal.  The student must dedicate a notebook to this exclusive use.   

Cancellation Policy: 
  1. 48-hour notice must be given, via phone or email, for all cancellations, in order to receive a credit for a make-up lesson.  Make-up lessons will be scheduled on a case-by-case basis, depending on availabilities in the teacher’s and student’s schedules. 
  2. If the student cancels a lesson with less than 48-hour notice, or simply does not show up to a regularly scheduled lesson or make-up lesson, the student’s account will be billed the full amount of the missed lesson. 
  3. In any event that a lesson must be cancelled by the instructor, a makeup lesson will be offered at a mutually agreed upon time.  Makeup lessons will not be offered for a lesson that is missed by the student.
