We're baaaaack!!!! I just got off the phone with the municipality and I am once again permitted to open my doors! :) I have missed you all so much! As before the lockdown, I will continue to keep 15-minute buffers between scheduled lessons to ensure ample time to clean/sanitize our workspaces and high-touch areas and to lower the likelihood of households' contact with one-another.... As we cannot keep a 2-metre distance, masks must be worn at all times. I will be touching base with each of my students, but feel free to reach out to me as well. Keep warm and I'm looking forward to seeing you all again this week! :) -Lea

I don't know about any of you, but this makes me excited about science! ;)

This is about to become my most played piece come the fall ;)

Good afternoon everyone and happy winter solstice! As I'm sure you're all aware by now, Premier Ford has announced another lockdown. That being said, for the week of January 4, there will be no in-person lessons, and depending on how this lockdown will continue, this may extend further. Any student who would like to take their lesson virtually is welcome to do so, either by facebook video, zoom, or facetime. Anyone who is not comfortable doing so may cancel their lessons with... no fee and we will resume once the lockdown lifts or if you become comfortable with virtual lessons at a later date. For the purpose of keeping things as simple as possible, I will hold off on sending January invoices until matters become more clear on when the lockdown will subside, or once I have spoken to you individually to determine how you would like to proceed. Thank you for your patience in this matter and hopefully we will be back in person sooner rather than later. Blessings to you all and I wish you and your families a very Merry Christmas and Happiest of New Years! Lea

For the safety of all involved, please refrain from using any personal details in your comments apart from performers' first names. Thank you and enjoy the show! Lea

Attention students and families: Due to unforeseen circumstances, in-person start dates will be delayed by one week. Lessons will resume for the fall semester next week. I will be in touch with confirmed students personally as well. Thank you for your patience.... Lea

Today's the day! The recital should premiere right here on the Lea's Lessons Facebook page at 10:00am. For anyone interested (or if for whatever reason the premiere isn't working for you) you can also catch it on YouTube as well right here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AToExHPfLN0 ... Thanks for tuning in!

It's RECITAL TIME!!! My students have been working *very* hard through virtual lessons and are ready to showcase their progress with you! Please join us Friday, June 26, at 10:00am on Facebook live right here on my Lea's Lessons page or on YouTube at the same time (link to be posted and emailed out later this week). Feel free to invite your friends and family or catch it at a later time if you can't make the 10:00 preview. Hope you can make it! I'm so proud of all your hard ...work! Lea

Is anyone in need of a music stand? I've had one offered to me from a friend if any of my students can use it :) Let me know!

This is it folks! September 1st! Thank you for all my returning students who have contacted me to confirm your time slots this fall. I have sent a follow-up email for those of you who have not yet done so. In the interest of reserving priority placing to returning students, I am not accepting new students until next week. At that time, if you or someone you know is interested in piano lessons, feel free to send me a message and I can answer any questions you may have. Enjoy ...your last week (or two for some of you) of summer! I hope to see you all again soon :) Lea

Announcement for Fall 2020! My home-studio will once again be operational and lessons will commence right on time in September. To operate in accordance with Health Unit standards, 15-minute intervals will be scheduled between lessons to limit contact with other households and to allow for adequate sanitization and cleaning in between students. Hand sanitizer will be available at each work space. Masks will be mandatory (some exceptions will apply- please contact me if you h...ave concerns) due to the unavoidable closeness of our lessons, and will be provided should you/your child not have one or forget it at home. I will offer as many slots as possible, though this does mean space for new students is limited. I welcome back all returning tutoring and piano students, however, I am only able to welcome new piano students at this time. Hopefully as time progresses I will be able to take on new tutoring students once again, and I will release a statement at that time. I expect availability to be limited, so send me a message as soon as possible to secure your spot, if you are interested in piano for this year. Lastly, I am unable to continue the reduced social-distanced rate offered for virtual lessons in the spring, but please rest assured that my rates are *not* increasing from last year's prices. This means that tutoring rates will continue to be $30/hr standard rate/ $25/hr family rate (2+ hours/week), and piano will continue at $20/half-hour lesson. Please feel free to send me a message or give a quick phone call for any questions or concerns you may have and remember to book your lesson times soon before they are all gone! I'm looking forward to finally seeing you all in person once again! Cheers! Lea

Stay tuned regarding September lessons for the 2020-2021 season coming soon this week!
