They provide students with the knowledge and skills needed to enjoy music for a lifetime. Not everyone starts a career, but everyone receives all they need to pursue one if they like. Above all, the most important goal for everyone is to enjoy making music.

They understand the needs of new students as well as advanced and adapt to their way of learning. Parents are also welcome to attend lessons, especially for those with young children.
Rewards! We provide these to students for a job well done and reaching milestones. These rewards encourage our students but the most important reward is found in the joy of playing or singing music.

How to Start Right and Avoid Future Struggles
We love teaching beginners. Why? From our experience, over 85% of music students who come to us are missing fundamentals and struggling. They are often not enjoying music. When this happens, bad habits need to be broken all the while establishing new ones.
How can this be avoided? Begin learning with the right instruction and foundation. If there are cracks in the foundation of a house, problems will eventually show in the future. At our School, we ensure that all students receive the right instruction from the start so they can truly progress well and enjoy making music for years to come. Learn in 2 years what many students take to learn in 4 or never at all.
International Standards that Produce Results and Accelerated Progress
Our students progress well because our standards of music instruction come from some of the most prestigious universities and conservatories of music in the world. Our experience has been that without this approach, students often struggle, and our goal is to spare them. At the School of Music, each student receives this instruction in a fun environment, learning at his or her own pace. Several skills of professional performers can be taught in the first one or two years of lessons, a critical time in the life of a student.
Whether learning piano, voice, guitar, violin, etc., our teachers do not take a one-size-fits all approach and are very experienced at providing new and advanced students the skills they need for continuing progress, from preschool through adult. We have had students who have gone on to pursue careers in music, earn scholarships for college, but most importantly, they have discovered music's ability to stir their hearts, and have developed an appreciation for the love, creativity, beauty, and wonder that only music can inspire.
Personality Match
Learning music also requires a good teacher-student relationship. Our teachers are carefully selected for the ability of working well with children, being a good role model, and understanding how they think. This, too, helps give them the best experience they can have in learning music.
