FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS:

WHAT DO YOU LEARN IN YOUR MUSIC LESSONS?

That question is often asked by prospective students. Our teachers make it a priority to get to know you on a personal level and to become familiar with your personal musical needs and goals.

We do not treat every student the same in terms of what and how we teach.

A seven year old having their first guitar lesson will have very different needs than a fifty seven year old taking up piano for the 2nd time after having had lessons as a child.

The main reason to choose the School of Performing Arts as your music lesson provider, is that we are sensitive to the fact that every student is an individual.

If you enroll here for lessons, we will work with you to make a plan that will fit your needs and musical preferences. At the first lesson your teacher will ask you about your favorite type of music, and set goals to help accomplish whatever musical aspirations you have for yourself or your child.

WHAT STYLES OF MUSIC DO YOU TEACH?

We teach all styles from rock, pop, jazz, country, blues and classical.

ARE YOUR INSTRUCTORS QUALIFIED?

All of our teachers have either received music degrees from prestigious universities or have at least 10 years of performing experience.  Some instructors have both.  In addition to their teaching credentials, our teachers have warm personalities, are extremely friendly and strive to get to know each student and their parent on a personal level.

Our versatile and experienced guitar teachers can teach a wide variety of music including rock, blues, metal, country, and classical in guitar lessons.  These styles are balanced with solid fundamentals from nationally-recognized methods.  Beginner students can expect to work on chords, simple songs and melodies, sight reading and theory.  We balance musicianship and fun by making sure that each lesson you are challenged with a new technical or theory concept, but also encourage students to bring in ideas of pieces they want to learn.  Students are encouraged  to bring CDs or iPods to their lessons to set goals if there are tunes they want to learn.  In addition to traditional guitar methods and styles we also off the Suzuki method on guitar.  This remarkable method allows children as young as 4 to begin learning the guitar in a supportive and nurturing educational environment.
