Policies

Thank you for considering me and The School of Feedback Guitar for guitar lessons!

Teaching is something I am pretty good at. I want to see the people I work with have a lot of fun. To accomplish this, I work with my students to make our communications and scheduling easy and painless.

Having clear logistics to follow translates into a smooth learning experience for you and a highly enjoyable teaching experience for me. This page presents all of these logistics.

How to Cancel Your Lesson

When you schedule your first lesson with me, BookFresh will send you a confirmation email for your appointment. If you don’t receive this email, check your spam folder.

There is a reschedule link on each email you’ll receive from BookFresh. Click that link if you need to cancel or reschedule any lesson:

Four Hour Grace Period

You may cancel your lesson up to four hours before it’s start time. You cannot cancel if less than four hours. For example, if your lesson is at 4:00 PM, you have until 11:59 AM to cancel your lesson.

Text me at (512) 299-4247 if you cannot cancel by BookFresh and will not be at your lesson.

If you have an emergency, don’t call me. I will email you if I don’t hear from you. All emergencies are automatically credited. On your honor.

If your lesson is at 4:00 pm, and you try to cancel at 11:59 am or before, you are all good. This is because you are cancelling more than four hours before your scheduled lesson.

If your lesson is at 4:00 pm, and you try to cancel at 3:07 pm, no bueno! This is because you are cancelling less than four hours before your scheduled lesson.

How to Avoid Nasty Cancellation Fees

$10 charge + price of the lesson for cancelling by phone or by emailing me personally to cancel your lesson.

Please do not email me or call me to cancel your lesson. To avoid all charges, cancel and reschedule your appointment using the BookFresh system.

"No-Call-No-Shows" or showing up more than ten minutes late to your lesson are treated similarly. I will charge you the full price of the lesson unless it was an emergency.

“No-Call-No-Shows” really, really suck. Don’t be that guy.

Email Policy

I strongly dislike checking my email and my phone too. I find them both extremely inconvenient to my interests, and to yours too.

I've chosen to be terrible with email and phone messages so that I can direct my energy to you in your lessons. Thanks in advance for understanding.

Thank You!

Thank you so much for taking the time to read this page. I have found that the more upfront I am about how I run my school, the faster everyone learns guitar. I can't wait to work with you! Thank you,

Dave Wirth
