FAQs
Can I Change My Program of Study Midway Through My Course?
Short answer: yes! But we ask for some flexibility on this as we may need to rearrange to a new teacher if the switch of instruments are not one your current teacher is knowledgeable in. A 30-day notice is required for a switch like this.
Will I Need to Bring My Own Instrument or Will You Provide Me With the Same?
It is strongly recommended for any instrument you wish to take lessons in to have that same instrument available to you at home to practice! That being said, we house drumsets & keyboards here at our school for students taking lessons on those instruments; on all other instruments students are required to bring their own.
Should I Learn to Play Acoustic or Electric Guitar First?
In general, electric is usually the easiest to start with because the neck and strings will be thinner and the action low enough to make it easier to play.
Will I Need to Buy a Drumset?
If you're taking lessons or playing drums in a band, then yes, you are required to own your own instrument so that you can practice at home. If an acoustic kit is too loud for your home, you can always get an electric kit and use headphones.
Do Vocal Lessons Actually Help?
Absolutely. As a vocalist, it's always good to take lessons with a one-on-one instructor, as they can help you with your pitch corrections, timing, phrasing, breathing and good use of your diaphram.
More detailed information is available on the FAQ page of our website.
