The best thing about small group classes is that they are fun! Small group classes (2-6 students grouped by age and experience) are a great way to learn music because there are so many great activities and games that, while helping to learn the elements of music, can also provide the social element missing from private lessons. I have found that a group atmosphere is often more beneficial and enjoyable for beginning to intermediate level students. In private lessons students progress at their own rate (which is usually slow). In group classes we progress at the rate of the fastest student.
Tired of the same old boring piano lessons? Try the Joy Academy of Music for a totally different learning experience! We use innovative methods and the latest technology to make learning awesome! Our two main goals are:
1) That every student truly learn to read music (the goal is to be able to walk into a music store, pick up a sheet of music and just play it). Our students read music like reading a book! Once you truly learn the language of music, practice isn’t work, it’s just a jam session at home! It’s no coincidence that our name is J.A.M. (Joy Academy of Music).
2) That every student HAVE FUN! If you have fun, then you will WANT TO PRACTICE. Motivation is built in to our program. After teaching for years out of almost every method book available, I found that my students technically played well, but if I asked them what staff note they were playing, they would say “it’s a 2”, or “it’s G Position”. I quickly found that almost every method book out there puts in lots of ways for students to “cheat” and to play songs without really learning how to read the notes (by using finger numbers and set hand positions). Also the music was often boring and didn’t motivate the students. After I decided to write my own method book with really fun songs in every style and without all the ways to “cheat”, my students progressed quicker, had more fun, and TRULY LEARNED THE LANGUAGE OF MUSIC (in addition to making teaching loads more fun for me!).
