Rates for private lessons in London.

  1. Rates

    The hourly rate is £40 - 60 for lessons within underground zones 1, 2 and 3. Contact me if you want to discuss the rate. Out of these areas, the rate would depend on how long I need to travel and my travel costs will be charged as well. Lesson fees for the first ten weeks have to be paid in advance.
    So, if you have a one-hour lesson twice a week the fee equivalent to 20 hours (ie 10 X 2) must be paid prior to the first lesson.
    However,up to two trial lessons can be paid for individually, if you wish. The cost of textbooks is not included in this rate. Lessons starting after 8pm or before 8am cost 25% more than the rate that is agreed between a student and me.
    I do not usually work at weekends but in certain circumstances I may.
    My hourly rate at weekends will be 50% more than my normal hourly rate and the minimum lesson time must be two hours.
    Also I will not travel beyond zones 1-3 at the weekend.
    Back to Terms and Conditions.

  2. Cancellation

    Any cancellation within 24 hours prior to the lesson will be charged as one lesson. Lessons can be rescheduled at no cost as long as either the student or I notify each other not less than 24 hours in advance.
    I will not wait at the scheduled lesson place for more than 20 minutes; if the student (or no student for a group lesson) does not turn up in that time I will charge the time as one lesson.
    If you agree to the cancellation policy above, please complete this form and submit it to me.

  3. Expiry date

    There is no expiry date of the lesson fees. So, once the fee is paid, you can reschedule your lessons according to your circumstances.
