The most common scenario, for individual music lessons at any school is the following : you will receive a half hour time slot, and this time slot will be reserved for your lesson each and every week. There are exceptions when holidays occur, but for the most part you will have a weekly half hour lesson of private instruction.
Now, what happens within that half hour can be a wide array of scenarios, dependant on many factors such as; the teacher, the student, the instrument and the style of music. The one thing that you can count on when coming for lessons at Eric's Academy of Music, is that it will be an enjoyable experience, and you'll definitely take with you many great memories of your music lessons.
We definitely believe in the school of thought that a great music teacher is much more than a great musician. A great teacher requires patience, skill, and the ability to explain to others what they cannot understand.
Not only are the music teachers at Eric's Academy of Music qualified to play their instrument, but they are great teachers and people as well.
The world of music is constantly growing and changing, and our teachers are fully aware of that. We always have our eyes and ears open to current developments in music as well as education, and will never insist on doing something the traditional way..
