The beauty behind music, and the emotion that sparks when I hold my guitar to create it, have given meaning to my life ever since I was a kid. That same emotion and connection to music is what I always pursue to teach all of my students. It is my belief that every person can play and fill their souls with the instrument’s wonderful sounds.

Name: Daniel (Full name will be provided upon registration)

Age: 40's

Gender: male

I have a Bachelor's degree in Music with Electric Guitar Focus that I received on 2005 from the Pontificia Universidad Javeriana in Bogotá, D.C, Colombia. This university is actually one of the leading higher education institutions in the country, and one of the most sought after by music students. On 2016 I attended the ICMP in London, UK, and completed a MMus in Contemporary Music Performance.

During the pandemic I won a Collective Creations Award that was given by my city to struggling musicians at the time. I had the opportunity to perform and record some great and beautiful music with other musicians of different backgrounds for a compilation CD.

I've also engaged in other short courses of study such as introduction to Suzuki philosophy, and Session Musician. But the greatest experience of all has been the fortune of having great teachers that have taught me not only about guitar and music, but about life. I have been blessed by having true "Masters", and I always teach everything that I've learned from them to my students.

Rates and Studio Policies
Registration Fee: $25.00 (One-time lifetime registration fee may be used by all family members)

Rates for instruction:
30 minute private lesson: $39.00
45 minute private lesson: $49.00
60 minute private lesson: $59.00

Travel charge: additional $15.00 per visit (for lessons in a client's home as opposed to my studio)

1. Cancellation Policy
Lessons not cancelled or rescheduled with at least 24 hours notice are billable to the client and payable to the teacher. This does not of course apply to travel fees unless the notice is effectively given at the door and the teacher has travelled to the location.

2. Cessation (quitting) Policy
A client must provide a 2 lesson notice period to stop lessons. So a weekly student needs to give 2 weeks of notice, a biweekly student works out to 3 weeks notice and a twice weekly student works out to a week of notice.

3. Illness Policy
Lessons cancelled due to illness or extraordinary circumstances with less than 24 hours notice remain billable to the client and payable to the teacher.

BAH teachers are encouraged to offer a make-up lesson at a future date in the interest of client relations and general goodwill. This only makes sense as teaching a student with the flu for example, will ruin the rest of your week's employment.

No more than 2 lessons may be made up due to illness within a 60 day period.

4. Rescheduling Policy
Any lesson can be cancelled or rescheduled with at least 24 hours notice.

Summer Vacation and Extended Absence Policy

Clients may schedule longer absences for trips etc. 24 hours notice is required.

It is normal and typical for students and about 20% of our teachers to schedule a break in the summer. We do not enforce a notice period (see cessation of lessons) at the end of a long summer break.

5. Evaluation Period
There are no free trial lessons with Beethoven at Home but we do offer a 2 lesson evaluation period where it is easy to try out a teacher. There are no free lessons during the evaluation period and clients may choose to discontinue the lessons at any time by providing the required 24 hours notice. After the student's 3rd lesson the required 2 lesson notice period will apply (see cessation of lessons above).
