Pay As You Can
"If my parents couldn't have afforded my private lessons as a child, I simply would not be where I am today."
Too many people are priced out of music, but at All In Guitar, we are all in this together. That is why my prices are based on your ability to pay. It's easy: people of a high income pay a bit more than people of a low income. Together we create the chance for more people to learn.

Knowing your Spending power & Price

Pay As You Can  is not a negotiation. It is a system which requires your honesty.

I will not ask to see your payslips or bank statements. In return I trust that you will not abuse the system.

Since 2020 the system has successfully shared around the opportunity to take private music lessons. The cooperation from my clients means the world to me, so let's keep it up!

  1. Find your Financial Household: the people that you live with or are financially dependent on (or who depend on you)

  2. Find the annual total income of your financial household (after tax). Take this number and divide it by the number of people in the household. Include bonuses and 13th month where applicable.

  3. This is your starting point. See where it is in relation to price points A, B & C. This is a scale. You might be somewhere between/above/below these points.

  4. Consider small adjustments to this starting point, based on the questions further below.

At the Halfweg location, lessons are 60 minutes long, except for young children who may have 45 minute lessons for 75% of the hourly rate.
At the Haarlem location Lessons are 45 minutes long and the hourly rate applies to cover expenses.


Adjustments to your starting position

  • Do you own real estate (especially multiple properties), or other significant assets?
  • Do you have significant savings?
  • Do you have passive income?
  • Do you have a low income because you do not need an income to live?
Answering yes will shift you a small amount to the right of the scale - remember you can be a bit higher or lower than the stated prices.
Answering no will shift you a small amount to the left.

The system cannot account for every possible financial situation. If you are unsure where you fit, please get in touch and I can help you determine your price.
If for some reason you cannot afford €30 per lesson please get in touch and we can try to arrange something.

In higher education? Please start between points A and B.
Retired from work? Please consider your standard of living and how much you spend on other nice things, such as holidays, dinners out, etc.
