Private lessons take place once a week at an arranged time for 20-25 minutes during the orchestra rehearsal period or before/after school. The cost is $24 per lesson. Fees are paid directly to the instructor.

Each instructor will have policies and guidelines that they will cover at the student’s first lesson.

Some of the instructors on our roster teach from their personal studios on evenings and weekends. Off-site studio lessons are not part of the Keller ISD Fine Arts Private Lesson Program. It is the responsibility of the parent/student to initiate contact with the instructor and arrange to be enrolled in their studio. Lesson rates and availability are determined by the teacher.
