Just 4get about it. The more opinions on here will put your head away. I’ve had loads. I’m still owed money from a few out there from last year. One being a very wealthy family. Drive a 70 grand Jeep and can’t even pay cash! I just let them go. Life’s simple. If they do it twice they are OUT FULL STOP. You should know that like if it happens twice in a row and they don’t have decency to even offer you something, you have waisters. If I cancel a student I give them one FREE lesson. That’s rare that I have to cancel but with being freelance musician I get last minute work. Let the client know and fit them in asap like the next day for free. Thus meanin they come back same time week after as agreed from the start. Have a good day.

Sometimes it’s best too just them know it’s not working out, and suggest he finds an alternative teacher moving forward! Dealt with……as this will free up your valuable teaching time, for another student that commits to the time schedules and appreciates and values your lessons.

Implement a Pay when you book policy. Since I adopted this payment system I haven’t had any problems. Its a neat way of weeding out people who think its ok to mess you about. If you don’t value your own time then how can you expect anyone else too. Sounds harsh, but anyone who is worth teaching will understand and respect it.:)

Just let them off and write him off completely from your diary! I also had a couple of them previously and they do Not worth any time of yours, honestly! I also had some time wasters who turned up for the first lesson having sent them all the admin infos and completely disregarded them no pay, no next week visit and then suddenly just turned up again and expected the lessons… absolutely no way to let ourselves messing up with these kind of people!
