Understanding lesson summaries and digests

After each lesson, your child’s teacher can send a digest — a summary of what was covered, new practice goals, and notes on your child’s progress. Digests keep you informed about your child’s musical development without needing to attend the lesson.

What is in a digest

A typical digest includes:

Lesson date and duration — When the lesson took place and how long it lasted.
What was covered — A summary of topics, pieces, and techniques worked on during the lesson.
Practice goals — New goals for the week ahead, such as specific pieces to practise, techniques to focus on, or listening tasks.
Progress notes — The teacher’s observations on how your child is developing.

Select Musicians in the sidebar.
Click your child’s name.
Open the Lesson History section.
Click on any lesson to view its digest.

You can also find the most recent digest on your dashboard under the upcoming lessons card.

Email digests

When your teacher sends a digest, you also receive an email notification with the key details. You can read the summary directly in your email or tap the link to open the full digest in Clefora.

Digests without practice goals

Not every digest includes new practice goals. Sometimes a teacher sends a summary of the lesson without setting specific tasks. When no goals are attached, the practice goals section is simply not shown.
