FAQ

Getting started

Is there a specific age requirement to start music lessons?

There’s no specific age requirement to start music lessons, and we’re excited to welcome students of all ages, including adults! While musical prodigies like Mozart started as early as age 3, it’s never too late to begin.

Whether you’re a parent looking to start your child on their musical journey or an adult learner pursuing a lifelong passion, we’re here to support you every step of the way. Music is for everyone, at any age, and we’re dedicated to helping each student discover and nurture their love for music!

What instruments do you teach? Where in the US?

We teach all major Western Classical, Jazz, and Rock instruments. Everything you want to learn, we make it happen!

We cover NYC and the wider Tri-State area.

Do you organise concerts and other musical activities?

Yes, we do! During term times, we organize weekly group workshops at prestigious venues across New York, including the Mannes School of Music. These workshops allow students to build on their one-on-one lessons by making music together. We also host bi-annual student concerts, competitions, and mock ABRSM exams at these iconic locations.

Participation is entirely optional, but these activities provide great motivational milestones, giving students a clear and rewarding goal to work towards in truly inspiring settings.

Lessons

When and where will the lessons take place?

For at-home lessons, our teacher will travel to your home or any other pre-arranged location, such as your office.

Online lessons can be conducted from anywhere with internet access.

You have the flexibility to schedule your lessons at times that suit you best. However, for optimal progress, we recommend having lessons on a regular basis, usually once per week.

How are online lessons delivered?

Online lessons are conducted via Zoom or Skype, scheduled at a time that works best for you, and can be as frequent as you wish.

Just like our in-person lessons, online sessions are fully customized to your needs, and your tutor will collaborate with you on a personalized progress plan to help you reach your goals.

Are online lessons any good?

Absolutely! Online lessons are an exciting and convenient alternative to in-person sessions, offering a seamless learning experience.

With a good internet connection, online lessons are hassle-free and accessible from anywhere. Your smartphone, tablet, or computer’s built-in camera and microphone are usually all you need to get started.

To ensure everything runs smoothly, it’s a good idea to check your internet connection, camera, and microphone before your lesson. Both Zoom and Skype make it easy to test your setup, so you can focus on enjoying your lesson!

What's your cancellation policy

You can cancel a lesson at any time.

However, because our teachers are busy professionals, we have a strict 24-hour cancellation policy. If you cancel within 24 hours of your scheduled lesson, you will be charged the full amount as if the lesson took place.

In the rare event that your teacher needs to cancel due to unforeseen circumstances, such as health issues, we will either arrange a substitute teacher for the day or reschedule your lesson with your regular tutor at your earliest convenience, depending on your preference.
