9 out of 10 students on Musicteachers.co.uk purchase their lessons in the form of a lesson block. You also have the option to purchase lessons one at a time, or as tailored Lesson offers, where the individual teacher’s cancellation policies apply.
How to buy a lesson block
Most students purchase their first lesson block when the teacher books their first lesson into the calendar. Lesson blocks can be purchased…
• from your student dashboard within your account - look for your teacher's image and the purchase button is to the right of this
• via the message thread with your teacher in your inbox
• or through the emails you receive when the teacher books lessons for you
You can also buy lesson blocks via the teacher’s profile on Musicteachers.co.uk - remember to log in first. It is always best to discuss which lesson block to purchase with your teacher before you make your choice.
Lesson blocks can be purchased as a single lesson or in blocks of 5, 10, 20 or 40 lessons. The larger the block, the less you pay per lesson.
FAQ's
Can lesson blocks be used for different teachers?
No, a lesson block is only valid for the teacher it was purchased with. If you have lessons left on your lesson block and would like to change teachers, you can contact support at info@musicteachers.co.uk, and we will process any refund due.
Can my children share a lesson block?
Yes, they can, as long as they go to the same teacher and have the same lesson length. Choose a lesson length that matches each child's lesson so the lesson credits can be used independently if needed.
How long is a lesson block valid?
A lesson block is valid for 12 months from the date of purchase. After that, you have an additional 12 months during which it is possible to renew your unused lessons (with the teacher’s acceptance).
Can a lesson block be refunded if not used?
A refund of unused lessons can be issued as long as they were purchased within the last 12 months. (price of unused lessons minus £3.00 processing fee) Any lessons purchased more than 12 months ago are not eligible to be refunded. Please note, the service fee charged at the time of purchase is non-refundable.
Why do lesson blocks expire?
Lesson blocks have an expiry date because, when purchased, you lock in your lesson price and the teacher’s pay per lesson. Without an expiry date, teachers risk being paid a wage that hasn't kept up with the increase in costs and inflation.
What happens if the teacher raises their prices?
The price you paid when you bought your lesson block is fixed, and your lessons will remain valid even if the teacher raises their prices. If you have opted for an automatic renewal, this will transition to the new price at the next purchase.
