Students are expected to arrive to lessons, recitals, or competitions on time. Any time missed due to lateness to lessons will not be made up. This is important because one's lateness can interfere with other students' lesson times.

Students are expected to practice at home everyday (15min-an hour or more, depending on the advancement of the student. Please discuss with teacher if needed). Some improvement needs to be shown at each lesson (if a situation should occur where practice is prevented, please talk to the teacher). Lack of improvement will result in monitored practicing from parents or possible termination of lessons.

A studio recital is given at the end of each school year which every student is required to attend.

Whether a student will enter competitions is decided upon both the student and the teacher. However, to be eligible for entering, the student must show his/her determination to enter, performance at lessons, and good sportsmanship.

Piano exams are strongly encouraged for students to participate because it gives a sense of achievement and professionalism.

Parental involvement for students under the age of 8 is strongly recommended. Younger students usually improve quickly and have a better understanding of materials learned if parents are actively involved. However, for older students, if no progress is made, parents will be asked to monitor practicing. It is also very important for parents to participate in annual recitals, studio workshops, and competitions along with the students.

Students are expected to come to each lesson with his/her books. Progress should be shown at lessons from practicing at home. Consistent lack of commitments to the lessons can result in either parental involvement in monitoring practices, or termination to lessons.
