I used to make my living off of tips, so I'm into it. Everyone knows you're supposed to tip a bartender, but some professions, like say a ski instructor or a river raft guide, you should tip, but a lot of people don't even know that it's ok. Wondering where music instructors fit in.

Thanks,

The few times I took lessons, I never tipped them. Heck, I didn't know you could or should! I would buy them beer though. Does that count?
