Question 1

What happens during a trial lesson?

Accepted Answer

You’ll meet your teacher on Zoom, discuss your experience and goals, and explore your playing together. It’s an opportunity to get to know their teaching approach and see whether studying together is a good fit.

Question 2

Do I need a certain playing level to book?

Accepted Answer

Each teacher works with particular levels, which you’ll find on their profile. You don’t need a polished performance for your trial. If you’re unsure which teacher suits you, contact us at contact@mercefont.com.

Question 3

How long is the trial lesson, and is it free?

Accepted Answer

Trial lessons are free and last 30 minutes with every teacher. There’s no obligation to purchase a membership afterward.

Question 4

What should I prepare?

Accepted Answer

Bring your guitar, your questions, and a piece or exercise you’re working on, if you have one. Have the score available if you use one. There’s no need to prepare a perfect performance—we want to understand your playing and what you’d like help with.

Question 5

What equipment do I need?

Accepted Answer

All trial lessons take place on Zoom. For the best experience, use a computer with the Zoom app installed, a stable internet connection, and a working camera and microphone. Position your camera so your teacher can see your guitar and both hands.

Question 6

Which time zone does the booking calendar show?

Accepted Answer

The calendar can display times in your local time zone or your teacher’s time zone. Check which time zone is selected before choosing your appointment.

Question 7

Will my trial lesson be added to the Lesson Hub?

Accepted Answer

No. Trial lessons are not added to the Lesson Hub. The Lesson Hub is provided for membership lessons.

Question 8

Can I cancel or reschedule my trial?

Accepted Answer

If you need to reschedule, please contact us at contact@mercefont.com at least 48 hours before your appointment. Trial lessons cancelled less than 48 hours beforehand are forfeited.

Question 9

What happens after the trial?

Accepted Answer

If you and your teacher agree that studying together is a good fit and a membership place is available, your teacher will send you an enrollment link. You can review the available plans and decide whether you’d like to continue. There’s no obligation to join.

Question 10

Can I book extra lessons alongside my membership?

Accepted Answer

Yes. You can purchase Single Lessons in addition to your membership lessons. Students with an active plan can book these at a discounted rate inside the Academy.

Question 11

What if the teacher isn’t the right fit?

Accepted Answer

We’ll discuss this with you openly. If we know another educator who would suit your level, goals, and interests, we’ll recommend them to help you find suitable guidance.
