Hello everyone, this week we’re introducing a powerful new feature in My Music Staff:\u00a0partial make-up credits<\/strong>. Most of you won’t notice any difference, but if you’re a teacher that teaches varying\u00a0lesson lengths, this will make your life a little easier (and your studio run more equitably).<\/p>\n In a nutshell, if a student is given a make-up credit for a 30 minute lesson, they now get a make-up credit worth 30-minutes of make-up time. Similarly, if a student is given a make-up credit for a 60 minute lesson, they can use that to sign-up for 60-minutes of make-up lessons. If you only give\u00a030-minute lessons to everyone, you won’t notice any difference.<\/p>\n For teachers with varying length lessons you no longer need to worry about students with longer lessons getting short changed with shorter make-up lessons. Similarly, students with shorter lessons can no longer sign-up for a longer make-up lesson slot (unless they have enough make-up credits to cover the time). My Music Staff will keep track of everything so that you don’t have to.<\/p>\n Here are a couple of common scenarios:<\/strong><\/p>\n If you teach varying length lessons, you may see partial make-up credits in your student list (for example, “0.5 make-up credits”). This will happen if a student is issued 60-minutes of make-up time, but has only redeemed\u00a030-minutes. The value of one full make-up credit is based on the student’s default lesson length.<\/p>\n Confused? Don’t be. As mentioned above, most teachers won’t notice this change. Teachers with busy studios will benefit by knowing that My Music Staff is managing their time behind the scenes instead of just whole “credits”.<\/p>\n We hope\u00a0you find this week’s updates and changes helpful. Have a great week!<\/p>\n \u2013 The My Music Staff Team<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Hello everyone, this week … <\/p>\nPartial Make-Up Credits<\/h2>\n
