ILLNESSES
PLEASE NOTE: My voice is my instrument and must stay healthy, so I cannot allow any student to enter the studio with a fever or congested cough. I ask that you please be considerate and not come to lessons when you or your child is sick. I will hold fast to not teaching a sick student. If a student comes to a lesson sick, I will call you and ask that you please return and pick up your child.
