FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS * About me [https://kalandrakamusic.com/faqs/#about] * Lessons [https://kalandrakamusic.com/faqs/#lessons] * Materials [https://kalandrakamusic.com/faqs/#materials] * Studio / opening times [https://kalandrakamusic.com/faqs/#howtoget] * Payments and cancellations policy [https://kalandrakamusic.com/faqs/#policies] HOW LONG HAVE YOU BEEN TEACHING MUSIC FOR? I’ve been teaching music for over 10 years. What instruments do you teach? I teach guitar (classical, acoustic and electric), bass, banjo, ukulele, and also DJing and music production. WHAT MUSIC STYLES DO YOU TEACH? I can teach a variety of styles (classical, pop, rock, indie, funky, reggae) and electronica (house, techno, downtempo, drum and bass), but it really depends on the students’ music taste. I would adapt the lesson accordingly. DO YOU OFFER FREE CONSULTATION? Yes, I do. In fact, I highly recommend it, so new potential students can set clear expectations and get answers to the questions they might have before enrolling in a single lesson or a block. CAN I TAKE A TRIAL LESSON BEFORE I BOOK A BLOCK OF HOURS? Yes, you can. In fact, this is what I initially suggest to new students, so they can see how they get on with the lesson, the instrument and me, too. HOW LONG DOES A LESSON LAST? A lesson normally last for one hour. DJing lessons can be longer (an hour and a half or 2 hours), and ukulele lesson for kids are usually 30 minutes long. I DON’T HAVE ANY MUSICAL BACKGROUND AT ALL. WILL I BE ABLE TO LEARN AN INSTRUMENT/DJING? Yes, you will! I have many beginner students who had never played an instrument before, and they are making big progress. CAN I LEARN MORE THAN ONE INSTRUMENT AT THE SAME TIME? Of course! It is really up to you. HOW MUCH TIME SHOULD I PRACTICE EVERY DAY? There is not really a recommended time for it. However, a minimum of 15 minutes per day would be nice to see a steady progress. DO YOU SEND HOMEWORK TO STUDENTS? Yes, I normally do, so they can practice what they were taught on the lesson. DO YOU OFFER ONLINE LESSONS? Yes, I do for each instrument and Music production, but not for DJing. DO YOU OFFER STUDENT DISCOUNT? Yes, I do. a 10% discount applies to all prices shown on the website. If you want to apply to the student discount, you will have to show proof that you are a student (i.e. a dated student ID). I SENT AN ENQUIRY, BUT I HAVEN’T RECEIVED A REPLY. WHY? I aim to reply to enquiries within 24-48 hours. Also, check your spam folder, as quite often my emails end up there. DO I NEED TO HAVE MY OWN INSTRUMENT? Although it is not essential as I have spare instruments at the studio, it is recommended to have your own instrument, so you will be able to practice from home. FOR DJING LESSONS, DO I NEED TO HAVE MY OWN CONTROLLER/ DECKS? This is the same as with instruments, it’d be good to have them at home, so you can continue practising what you have learnt in the lessons. I can also give you advise on what software you can get to DJ with you computer without using a controller (I actually started this way in my early years). WHAT EQUIPMENT DO YOU USE FOR YOUR DJ LESSONS? I use 2x Pioneer CDJ900 Nexus multi players, 2x Technics SL 1210 MK2 turntables,  a Xone 92 Mixer and 2x KRK Rokit 5 active speakers along with a subwoofer. WHERE DO THE LESSONS TAKE PLACE? They take place at my private studio located inside the Sir Arthur Conan Doyle Centre (25 Palmerston Place, EH12 5AP Edinburgh [https://goo.gl/maps/dSYMfvjDPtG1Uzq59]) I WILL BE COMING TO THE LESSON BY CAR. IS IT FREE TO PARK IN THE AREA? No, it is not. It is free to park from 6:30pm from Monday to Saturday, though. There is also a street nearby (Belford R [https://goo.gl/maps/psRN3eXhAVNko7mMA]oad) where you can park from 5:30pm and throughout the day on Saturdays with no parking restrictions. CAN YOU GIVE ME LESSONS IN MY OWN HOUSE? Depending on the students’ needs, this can be occasionally arranged, but it’s not always possible due to my schedule, which can be tight at some times. An extra charge for transport will apply. Get in touch with me for consultation. [https://kalandrakamusic.com/contact/] DO YOU TEACH AT THE WEEKEND? Yes, I do. I’m open on Fridays from 5pm to 10pm and Saturdays from 10am to 3pm. I close on Sundays. DO YOU TEACH CHILDREN? Yes, I do, from all ages. Parents can come with them to the lesson and wait  inside the studio, if they wish. There is also a tea room inside the Sir Arthur Conan Doyle Centre. WHAT HAPPENS IF I CAN’T ATTEND A LESSON? If you let me know with more than 24 hours in advance, I can rearrange the lesson for another day/time. However, if the request for cancellation is less than 24 hours: – I will try to rearrange the lesson on another day/time in the same week (this is subject to both the student and my availability). This lesson will be charged as usual. – If the lesson can’t be arranged in the same week, the lesson will be charged. No exceptions are made. – Sick absences and overtime work are also included in this cancellation policy. In order to avoid cancellation, I recommend you to be realistic about your spare time and commitment to the music lessons. Some students are very keen to learn and instrument/DJing, but they just can’t find the time for it. DO THE BLOCKS OF LESSONS EXPIRE? No, they don’t. The remaining lessons will be kept until you come back from an absence (sickness, holiday, etc) I WON’T BE ABLE TO ATTEND MY REMAINING LESSONS. CAN I ASK FOR A REFUND? Unfortunately, that is not possible. However, the lessons are transferable, so somebody else can take them.  YOU HAVE PROPOSED ME A DAY AND A TIME FOR MY LESSON, BUT THIS STILL HASN’T BEEN CONFIRMED BY ME. CAN YOU HOLD MY SLOT UNTIL LAST MINUTE? I will hold a slot up to 48 hours before the lesson. After this time, I can’t guarantee the slot will be available. I currently have a waiting list for students wanting to get some specific slots (mostly at evening time), and if I haven’t received confirmation from you prior to 48 hours to the lesson, the slot will become available. WHAT PAYMENT METHODS DO YOU ACCEPT? AND WHEN DOES THE LESSON HAVE TO BE PAID? For single lessons, I accept cash and card, to be paid 24 hours prior to the day and time of the lesson. For block of lessons, bank transfer and PayPal are also acceptable, always paid 24 hours prior to the first lesson. If a lesson hasn’t been paid before this timeframe, there is no warranty the slot will be available. And if the payment hasn’t gone through at least 12 hours before the lesson, this will be automatically cancelled.  ARE THERE ANY ADDITIONAL COSTS APART FROM THE LESSON CHARGE? No, there aren’t. Prices shown on the website are fixed to the final price.

Poplars Farm Riding School

Stoke On Trent

Poplars Farm was bought by Mr and Mrs Warrington in 1979 in order for their daughter Mandy to further her career as a riding instructor by opening a riding school. Over the years Mandy and her family have built the centre to become one of the most reputable in the area. Mandy had a passion for riding as a child and was fortunate enough to have her own ponies. She was a keen show jumper and progressed through the ranks from ponies to horses and competed successfully with her best horse Merry-Go-Round. Mandy gained her teaching qualifications under Sue Snow at Field House Equestrian, where she became a BHS AI (BHS Stage 3 Coach) before leaving to start up her own riding school. During the early years here at Poplars Mandy met her husband Chris, who also works on the farm, and they had two daughters Philippa and Francesca. Mandy then started to live her passion for horses through her daughters, who both competed from a very young age. Both girls were successful in the showing world for many years, their most famous pony being Barkway Honey Bee (Beebee). Together they won many prestigious competitions and BeeBee gave them both the first of many rides at the Horse of the Year Show. Philippa (Pip) currently works full time as a riding instructor alongside her mum here at Poplars. Having graduated with a first class honours degree in law; she followed her heart and her love of horses and joined her mother at the riding school, she is a BHS II (BHS Stage 4 coach). While predominantly teaching here at Poplars, Pip also does freelance teaching and schooling and has recently become a British Dressage Judge. As well as showing, Pip has competed in affiliated dressage & eventing. Pip has two children, Bonnie & Ralphie. Bonnie, now aged 4 has already started her competitive riding career & had a successful first season with homebred Poplabee Georgie Porgie last year, finishing 6th in the Stars Champion of Champions final at Aintree international and gained the best young rider award from her riding club. Francesca (Chez) also works full time at the riding school, she is a BHS Stage 2 and has completed a Masters Degree in History. Chez has always competed her horses and ponies after being introduced by her mother, and was British Dressage Quest National Champion in 2018 with her horse Future Enigma. She also has a daughter, Harriet, who is proving to be a keen horse rider, and is looking to make her showing debut this summer as she approaches age 3. Victoria Witham is the newest member of the teaching staff here at Poplars. Vicky learnt to ride with ourselves and recently passed her BHS Stage 2 teach exam to become a qualified coach. A pleasant, hardworking and valued member of staff Vicky has the same passion for horses as Mandy, Pip & Chez, which makes her a great addition to the team. In terms of teaching staff, we are also proud to have freelance instructor Tara Godfrey available for lessons. Tara, a BHS Stage 4 coach, who has also gained her Stable Managers & most recently her Stage 5 teach exam, brings a wealth of knowledge and expertise to our team. Tara has previously worked all over the world, and therefore brings a huge amount of experience. Her passion is show jumping, having jumped competitively to 1m15. She has also competed to a very good level in dressage & eventing. Our teaching staff are supported by our lovely little team of yard staff, which includes our new apprentice Lewis. An apprentice from Reaceheath College, Lewis also learnt to ride with ourselves and is now following his passion of horses.

Speech Stuff - Speech and Language Therapy

Cramlington

As a Speech and Language Therapist passionate about supporting children’s communication skills, I’ve created this as a space to share information, resources and ideas. I have extensive experience of working with children from 2-16 years with a range of speech, language and communication needs (SLCN). I studied to become a Speech and Language Therapist at Newcastle University and developed my enthusiasm for supporting children’s communication throughout the course. Since being qualified (2011) I have worked in the NHS in the North East and in Yorkshire, supporting children in the community, early years and school settings. I have also worked directly for schools supporting the individual needs of the children as well as leading on staff training and development in specific areas of Speech and Language. I believe that communication is a vital skill in order to participate in a range of activities of daily living. Everyone deserves the support required to enable them to communicate effectively. I have worked with children with a range of SLCN and have particular interests in supporting children’s early language, speech sound development and selective mutism. The information presented on this website contains ideas and resources to develop speech and language skills in children and is designed to support, not replace, consultation with a Speech and Language Therapist. If you are concerned about your child you should seek relevant professional advice. Every child is unique and requires individual assessment to identify their own specific needs. Please feel free to contact me to discuss any concerns you may have about your child or to support professional development within your setting.
