Consistent, daily practice is essential for improvement of skills. Students should practice at least 6 days per week, for a minimum of 60 minutes per day, and a total of 6 to 10 hours weekly.
Each weekly lesson will be graded, according to improvement and effort shown on weekly assignments. Students are expected to practice for 3 to 5 hours per week, divided evenly among the days of the week. Weekly grades will be based on the following criteria:
A Entire assignment learned and presented in a polished manner
B Assignment learned, with a few problems
C Assignment attempted, with many difficulties
D Poorly prepared lesson, with little outside practice demonstrated
F Very poorly prepared lesson, with no outside practice demonstrated; or absent from lesson without prior notification (one unexcused absence is allowed)
The student must contact the instructor prior to the scheduled lesson time to set up a makeup lesson time, at the instructor's discretion.
A final playing exam will be performed for the instructor during the last lesson of the semester, generally during the final week of the semester. This performance will receive a grade based on the above scale.
The final grade for the course will be determined by averaging all weekly grades, which will be worth 75% of the total grade, and the final exam grade, worth 25% of the final grade.
Regular attendance is necessary for satisfactory achievement. Therefore, it is the responsibility of the student to attend class. One unexcused absence will be allowed, without affecting final grade. The second unexcused absence will be recorded as an "F" in the gradebook. Three unexcused absences will result in an "F" for the final grade.
First lesson: Meet with instructor; determine individual goals for semester, choose textbook/music, and receive first practice assignment.
2nd lesson: Prepare the given assignment, and bring all required materials to lesson.
3rd and subsequent lessons: Each upcoming week’s assignment will be determined by the progress demonstrated during the previous week’s lesson.
