Matches students who missed a lesson with the open times on your teaching schedule and each family's availability.
Before and after
Missed lessons
- Violet Ebert, piano, 30 min, missed Tue March 3 (sick). Policy asks for 24 hours notice and notice came the morning of, but Vanessa approved a makeup this time. Makeup approved.
- Wade Greer, guitar, 45 min, Thu March 5 (studio cancelled). Studio cancelled lessons are always made up. Makeup owed.
Makeup options
Violet Ebert (30 min, weekdays after 3:30 except Wednesdays, or Saturday mornings)
- Mon Mar 9, 4:30 to 5:00
- Sat Mar 14, 9:00 to 9:30
(The Wed Mar 11 slot was left out because Wednesdays do not work for her family. The Sat Mar 21 slot was not listed so it stays available for Wade.)
Wade Greer (45 min, Mondays and Fridays after 5, Saturdays before noon, not March 14)
- Mon Mar 9, 5:00 to 5:45 (right after Violet's first option, so both can be booked)

- Sat Mar 21, 9:00 to 9:45
(The Sat Mar 14 slot was left out because that date does not work for his family.)

Questions for the owner
- How long should each offered time be held before you offer it to someone else?
- If both families pick the Monday, March 9 times, are you set with back-to-back lessons from 4:30 to 5:45?
What it does
Matches students who missed a lesson with the open times on your teaching schedule and each family's availability. It gives you a short list of workable makeup options for each student and a ready-to-send message to each family.
Use it when: Use when a music teacher or studio owner needs to find makeup lesson times for a student who missed a lesson or whose lesson was canceled, such as "find a makeup slot for this student," "who can I fit in this week," or "reschedule the lessons I canceled."
