I see what you're saying, but you'll be hard pressed to find much cheaper.  My Mom charges $15.00 for half an hour of either voice or piano lessons, so it's about the same.  Have you ever heard of a pell grant?  It's like a student loan, except you don't have to pay it back.  I have a friend who was so poor going to school that the pell grant paid everything for her and she never paid a cent.  (If you drop a class then you have to pay for it since the pell grant only covers classes you're actually taking, so you need to pay them back for dropped classes.)  I highly recommend you look into it!  And best of luck both with school and the lessons!

Unfortunately, I only have one $7.50 an hour shop with flucuating hours.  Lately I haven't had very many hours.  I don't know how many I can count on in summer.  Oh and I'm trying to save up for college.  Somehow $40 an hour for something, no matter how much I like it, just doesn't fit in.

WhiteJedi,

I can sing, but I'd still love to take proper lessons!!  Needless to say, I'd be willing to pay almost any price.  For me, $35-40 dollars wouldn't be so bad.  Still, I can see where you're coming from.

Best wishes to you.  Please keep us posted on your progress.
