FAQs

The earliest age to accept students is age 5.

The main criteria are that the child knows his/her alphabet and can sit still for 20 minutes (the additional ten minutes can be made into a fun musical game or mini-lesson on another instrument such as drums.)

It helps if you bring your own guitar. We do have access to guitars at the school but you will be more comfortable using your own instrument that you are more familiar with.

You should bring your Instrument to your lesson each week. We provide amps for electric guitar lessons, so there’s no need to bring that along too!

The only exceptions are with keyboard/piano and drums (you need to bring only drumsticks).

Our lessons are all taught onsite at our learning hub in Eccles. We have three learning studios all equipped for specific instruments.

Music is a science that can take a lifetime of learning! Learning the basic fundamentals can take on average three months. It is up to you how long you decide to continue learning.

At the start just bring along a notepad along (optional). Until you have decided this is right for you, it is best to start out simple! As time progresses you can invest in learning materials and other accessories that will enhance your learning of your chosen instrument.

If your schedule changes and you need to switch your weekly time, please speak to Dawn and she will discuss alternative available times with you. This may not always be with your current teacher.

Yes! We have band workshops both in the summer holidays and ongoing throughout the year. Our band put on an annual music festival each year as well as the opportunity for our students to show off their skills in our Christmas whole school showcase!

Each winter we arrange a family-friendly nature walk at local nature reserves. These walks provide a great opportunity for our school families to mix and get to know each other and enjoy the local area.

We will be more than happy to inspect your instrument to see if it is suitable for instruction. (For your convenience, please do this before your lessons are scheduled.)

If you are waiting for your child at the school your teacher will give you a brief verbal update of what your child has worked on and what they need to do at home. At the end of each full term, our teachers provide us with a report of each child’s learning. This is sent out to each parent. We are always available to contact should you have any questions regarding your child’s progress.

Yes, you may take more than 30-minute lesson a week.

We need to know by the last day of the current calendar month.

We ask you to send this I writing to Dawn, either via Whatsapp or email.

Our lessons are £20 per 30 minute lesson.
