as far as private lessons/contracts Hanifa..
how about...
type up a quick contract, including release from liability, AS WELL as a missed class policy... most dentists/doctors have this right on their appt. card. (something like unless cancelled 24 or more hours in advance, you will be charged for missed appointments)..
ALSO... start a PAY IN ADVANCE POLICY.... then they WILL call you!
you can even write in your contract..
"this is my job, and my time is valuable. If for some reason you have to miss your scheduled class, I need at least a 36 hour notice, in which to fill your time slot with someone from my waiting list. If you give me less than 36 hours, your money will only be refunded if I am able to fill your time slot. thank you for your understanding."
of course I am always too understanding (the 1st time it happens) if they call the morning of with a sick child, broken car etc.... and I will reschedule them with no extra charge... but no longer in a "prime time" slot!!
GOOD LUCK!
