Frequently Asked Questions

Find quick answers to some of the most common questions we receive from parents.

How long are home lessons?
Depending on the age and level of the student, we offer lessons ranging from 30 to 90 minutes.
How do you select days/times and teachers?
All staff in our office are happy to assist with this. We are experts at helping match students with the appropriate teachers and the necessary schedules.
How frequent are home lessons?
Lessons take place on a weekly basis at a regularly scheduled time. We understand that schedules can be hectic, but a consistent time and structure are necessary for optimal learning.
Do you offer trial lessons?
At JWY, we pride ourselves in our ability to effectively match students with teachers. However, if you are not completely satisfied with your first lesson, we will give you the opportunity to try another teacher. We welcome as much feedback as possible, since knowing what you don’t like about a teacher is a very important step towards finding the right fit.
Do you have recitals?

We have something way cooler than recitals….SuperJAMS!!!! Generally held twice a year (Winter and Spring), SuperJAMS allow students to show off in front of siblings, parents, grandparents, friends and the whole JWY community. We encourage students to perform together, in groups, duos, trios, bands, with siblings, parents, their teachers, etc. At a typical SuperJAM, you will see a wide variety of instruments, ages, abilities and performances.

Do you perform background checks on teachers?

Yes! All new teachers are interviewed and screened. We run a background check (federal and sexual offender) on all employees/contractors prior to employment.

What if we miss a lesson?

If you have to miss a lesson for any reason, your teacher will offer you two reasonable make opportunities to reschedule the lesson. Read more about our home lesson policies.
