Our Teachers
All of our teachers hold university degrees specifically in their instrument. We selected them for their passion for music and care for teaching. They are always encouraging and positive, catering to each student’s interests, desires, and goals. We teach with an “American Approach” to music education with your hands on the instrument from the first day (read our blogpost about the American Approach).
Free Trail Lesson
A free 45-minute trial lesson is offered to all new students. We want to ensure the teacher we chose for you is the right match!
Lessons Options
We offer 45-minute or 1-hour weekly lessons. For children under 8 years old, we also offer 30-minute weekly lessons. Paired lessons are possible with a sibling or friend at the same location and at the same time. Music lessons in Paris take place at your home on the day and time you choose. If you do not wish to have lessons at home for any reason, we can organize a studio for you in Paris.
What You Will Learn
During the lessons, your teachers will be working one-on-one with you on the fundamental technique of your instrument and on the repertoire of your choosing. Music theory will be included in the instrumental lesson. Private lessons allow the teacher to cater to each student’s unique needs and abilities resulting in the most efficient development.
Styles of Music
All styles of music are taught: classical, pop, jazz, rock, gospel, etc.
2 Performances / Year
Two performance opportunities are given to all students in a beautiful Parisian hall – one at the end of January and one at the beginning of June.
Practice Planner
All students are given a Practice Planner for teachers to mark weekly assignments and students to record their practice.
Introduction Call
Before you sign up, our admissions team is available to speak about your personal musical goals and desires and to answer any questions you may have.
ABRSM Prep
The Conservatory prepares about 25% of our student body for optional ABRSM exams. These exams are not mandatory.
ABRSM exams are designed to motivate students of all levels and ages, giving them realistic goals and tangible rewards for their achievements. Since 1889, ABRSM has provided music teachers and their students with exams and assessments that nurture and evaluate an individual’s performance and progress. To learn the complete details of these exams, please visit www.abrsm.org or read our blog post.
