For every student we offer an individual program, corresponding to the needs of the child. There is always a possibility to switch between the programs. We offer three options of individual lessons: basic, advanced and professional.
Basic program. Within this program a student takes one individual lesson per week. Is especially good for beginners, also possible for continuing students who do not wish to take an intensive course.
Advanced program. This is a program for gifted children who are willing to dedicate more time to music. It is recommended for those students whose parents do not have an opportunity to help with practicing at home.
Professional program. This is a program for gifted children who are willing to dedicate more time to music. It is recommended for those students whose parents do not have an opportunity to help with practicing at home.
The price for tuition depends on the number of lessons taken per week and on duration of the lessons:
Basic | Advanced | Professional | |
30 min. lesson, CHF | 60 | 55 | – |
45 min. lesson, CHF | 90 | 80 | – |
60 min. lesson, CHF | 110 | 100 | 90 |
90 min. lesson, CHF | – | – | 135 |
There are 39 weeks in a school year: 21 week in the first semester and 18 weeks in the second. To calculate the tuition cost one has to multiply the number of weeks in a semester by the number of classes taken per week and by the price of one lesson. For example: 21 * 60 * 1 = 1260 CHF (first semester, one 30 minutes class per week).
