In preparation for summer, I just sent home a Summer Survey with each of my students last week. I started sending these home with my students several years ago when I first started offering summer piano camps and it has been so helpful! Early on in my teaching, I made the mistake of planning an elaborate piano camp without conducting a survey first and was so disappointed when many of the students were unable to come during the week I had scheduled it to take place. Now I do some preliminary planning, but wait to do the bulk of it until I know what my families’ plans are.
Feel free to download and adapt this survey for use in your studios!

What a great idea! I have never done a summer piano camp before, but definitely will in the future, and I am glad I read your idea of giving the students a survey first. Thanks!
(In fact, we are talking about Ideas for Summer Teaching on The Teaching Studio this week – I would love to put a link to this post in our helpful resources page!)
This is a great survey! I will keep this on reference for future ideas!
