GTC

Agreement of contract

The contract for participation in a Little Music Makers® course is agreed when Little Music Makers® has confirmed the registration by email.


Payment

The tuition fee has to be paid by bank transfer in the given time frame as announced by email. Otherwise a reservation cannot be guaranteed. Course materials will be handed out when payment has been made. We cannot accept cash, Paypal or credit card payment. 


 

Refunds

For cancellations more than 3 days before the first lesson of the course starts, the course fee will be refunded less a 25 € administration fee. For cancellations made less than 3 whole days before the first lesson of the course starts no refund of the course fee is possible. The transfer of a booked class spot to another family or credits to another semester are not possible. Missed lessons cannot be transferred to other families.


Cancellations

Lessons may be cancelled or postponed by Little Music Makers® or may be held by a teacher other than the teacher designated to the class. In case of extreme weather conditions please contact us or check out our website www.littlemusicmakers.de for more information on cancellations.


 

In case a lesson has to be cancelled on very short notice Little Music Makers® will contact each family by phone (SMS/text message) and/or email. If a lesson is cancelled it will either be held at the end of the semester – or if that should not be possible – it will be refunded or credited. In general a teacher is designated to a particular class. However, in the case that the teacher is prevented from attending for any reason, either another teacher from our team will hold the lesson or it will take place at a later date.


 

Liability

Little Music Makers® can neither be held liable for any accidents, infections or injuries of all kinds nor for theft, personal injury or physical damage happening to a participant during or after a course lesson. Insurance coverage has to be solely provided by the course participant.


Safety

We reserve the right to send families with cold symptoms back home in order not to endanger other families. The safety of all children has first priority. The person accompanying the child is responsible and liable for the child’s behaviour. He or she has to be prepared to act, if the child endangers itself or other children or if the child persistently disturbs the class. If it is not possible to stop the behaviour of a child, we reserve the right to ban the family from the course. We will then refund the remaining class lessons. There will be no refund of the class materials (songbook and CD).


Guests and siblings

You are welcome to bring guest children along into a classroom course. We would appreciate it if you could let us know in advance. The cost is 10 € per class/child. Siblings who are not registered for the course can be brought the first time for free. After that we charge 10 € per class.


Tuition fee

The tuition fee for a course for one child is as follows: Course fee for 10 weeks 145 €; course material: CD 15 €, songbook 15 € amounting to a total of 175 €. Each additional child (age of 10 months and older at start date of the course) costs 85 € tuition fee/course.

Demo lessons at the beginning or in the course of a semester which result in a registration in the same semester will be charged as a normal lesson.

 

Demo lessons at the beginning of the semester which do not result in a course registration are free. The same applies for demo lessons which were taken before a new semester starts.


 

Filming and photographing

Filming and photographing during the course is not permitted for data protection reasons.


Personal data

By signing up to a class it is agreed that the contact details will be stored for contacting, questions and course adminstration purposes.


Severability clause

Should any provision of this Contract be or become invalid, ineffective or unenforceable as a whole or in part, the validity, effectiveness and enforceability of the remaining provisions shall not be affected thereby. Any such invalid, ineffective or unenforceable provision shall be deemed replaced by such valid, effective and enforceable provision as comes closest to the original meaning and the purpose of such invalid, ineffective or unenforceable provision.
