About our Faculty/Philosophy of Teaching
In addition to being professional musicians, our University trained faculty members are all carefully selected for their talents in education - specifically their abilities to effectively communicate key concepts to students in a variety of different ways. This ensures that students are always presented with a learning method most suited to his/her individual needs. All of our early childhood music educators strive to make each class fun and engaging! Our faculty are here for one reason, and that is to help each student develop a love for the performing arts by sharing the skills necessary to play the songs he/she loves!
