ALL students have the opportunity to receive one-on-one coaching from a professional musician on their instrument. This is an amazing supplement to the regular classroom work.
Private Lessons are NOT only for kids who are falling behind in class. Of course, private study will help students who are falling behind, but lessons also help advanced students accelerate even faster.
If you think, “we will start with lessons after we see some commitment from our child” … keep in mind that the number one factor in being committed is a feeling of success and the number way to be successful at this activity is to receive the one-on-one private coaching that allows a child to feel competitively successful.
Private lessons are available for each band student. As this is a supplemental program, it costs a little extra money to participate. Private lessons are $23.00 per lesson and occur once a week. Lesson schedules are set up by our private lesson staff for their individual studios. Private Lesson Scholarships (for 1/2 cost per lesson) are available through our Booster Club. If you would like to apply for a scholarship, please fill out the application below.
