I am starting to plan campus visits for my son (a junior) and am about to send out e-mails to prospective teachers regarding trial lessons. I have several questions
1. How fair in advance do you usually send e-mails (one school said 6 months before, others seem to say 6 weeks)?.
2. Do I indicate anything about him in the e-mail (i.e. pieces studied, how long he has studied, teachers. . .) ?
3. Do I indicate that we are willing to pay for lessons?
4. For some schools we know little or nothing about the teachers in his instrument. Is it considered tacky (or otherwise inadvisable to take lesson with all of the teachers who are available during the visit (could be as many as six)?
Thanks in advance.
