How do I pay?

You receive an invoice via e-mail each term. This invoice will have a link to online bill pay if that is your preference. For an additional administrative fee you have the option of paying monthly. At this time we do not accept credit cards.

How do we sign up for classes?

Call Kim at 503-896-2890 or email chordination.office@gmail.com. She will discuss prices and availability of teachers to insure best fit. You will be referred to a teacher with space available in your location who will call you to set up a 15-20 minute interview in your home. This will give you the opportunity to see if personalities and styles are a match. At that time you will be given a registration form and brochure that explains our policies. These can also be found on our website. The registration form and initial payment must be received by CHORDination before the start of lessons. Click here for printable form.
