Trial Lessons? (All Teachers)
I’ve been exchanging emails with a potential new student, and they’ve asked if we can have a trial lesson. For me and other prospective students that I’ve had before, this means, quite simply, a lesson. That you pay for. But there are no obligations to go on and have more lessons – hence ‘trial’.
This new student want a trial lesson, but I’m very strongly getting the impression that they don’t want to pay for it – they’re asking if we can meet ‘for a chat’ first – most of my first lessons involve a fair bit of chat anyway, so I know what the student is hoping to get out of the lessons/improve upon. I’ve also said (a few times!) that if they have any questions I’d be more than happy to answer them over email, but nothing is forthcoming. I’m not feeling inclined to give up my time for this, only for them to decide that they can’t be bothered…
Am I being unreasonable? Has anyone dealt with similar issues to this before? A phone call may be the way forward but I’m terrible on the phone (especially with people that I don’t know!) and I’m not sure that either of us would get the information that we need!
