[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Why do you give them a giftcard? Aren’t you already paying a lot of money for a lesson? I pay $60 for 30 minutes, that hourly rate is a lot more than I get at my job. I feel like this tipping is too much. Why not just give them a holiday card and bake them a treat? [/quote] This! Why do we assume gathered gift go this direction? Is teacher contemplating what to give your kid. They own a small business owner. I’d use their business as a “gift”. Or pay them even when you cancel. Or pay them more per lesson if you think you’re not paying them enough and feeling generous. That is more meaningful to them. $100 a year/$2 a week is not even gas money. I think cash is insulting. I’d give thoughtful gift… maybe a pen or a heartfelt card. The retired 70yo who taught my son at the time gave him a small plastic bust of Bach/Mozart and a music themed notebook to log his practices 2 of the years she taught him.[/quote]
