Choose a location from the list at
right.
When you choose a music teacher, whether
just for personal enjoyment or to prepare for exams, you need to consider
the teacher's -
- musical education and background,
- level of experience,
- personality,
- studio atmosphere,
- program offered.
We suggest that you set up interviews with prospective teachers,
ask lots of questions, and get a feel for the their personalities
and communication styles. Do they make you feel comfortable? Do
you understand their explanations?
Private music lessons should be an enjoyable experience with benefits
that reach beyond the studio!
