Hello, my name is Liz Tercek.  I am a violist and educator with over 30 years of teaching experience. I have a BM in Viola Performance, a MM in Viola Performance and Violin/Viola Pedagogy, and a Public School Teaching Certification.  I have a current background check on file and a current teaching license on file with the WI Department of Public Instruction.  I enjoy teaching the viola (and violin) to students of all ages, through private lessons.  I also enjoy helping groups of friends learn how to play together through coaching.  Music has enriched my life immensely and I hope that I can help students to experience some of the joy that playing music brings to me. 

I charge $25.00 for a 1/2 hour lesson/coaching.  For private lessons, the fee is $25.00 per student.  For coaching duets the fee is $12.50 per student per 1/2 hour.  The fee for trios is $12.50 per student per 3/4 hour.  The string quartet fee is $12.50 per student per hour. 

Lessons are organized into "Sessions".  There are two reasons that I prefer to teach in "Sessions". 

I prefer to be paid by Session (8 lessons), though you may begin lessons after a session has started.  I prefer to be paid by check or cash at the beginning of the session, though we can work out whatever is convenient for you.  If checks are returned for insufficient funds, the bank fee will be passed onto you. 

If changes need to be made, they can easily be made between sessions. If you have any concerns during a Session (you don't think your child is benefitting from the lessons, or if you don't think that I am a good fit for your child, etc.), please let me know!  Likewise, I will communicate with you if I think I am not a good fit for your child, or I don't think that I will be able to help your child succeed. 

Please see below for the schedule, location, contact information, and a reminder of the details.  Thank you for your interest!

Viola Lessons and/or Instrumental Coachings occur weekly on Saturdays at Pacetti's Music in downtown Kenosha.

Lessons/coachings are organized into sessions.  Each session has 8 lessons/coachings.  You may join a session after it has started.

Each lesson or coaching is scheduled in 1/2 hour increments.  Each 1/2 hour costs $25.00.  

Consistent attendance is encouraged and expected. Cancellations of lessons must occur at least 24 hours before the lesson.  

Make up lessons for cancelled lessons may be offered, or cancelled lessons may be reimbursed. 

Lessons that are not cancelled will not be made up or reimbursed.
