Q:  Do I need an instrument at home to take lessons?

A:  You can start lessons without having an instrument at home, but we highly recommend having one in the home for daily practice.  The progress and success of every student is directly related to the amount of practice the student gets between lessons.

Q:  How long does it take to learn an instrument?

A:  There is no set answer to how long it takes to learn an instrument.  With regular practice a basic level of playing can be achieved in a few months.  Most of our students take lessons on a long term basis because they want to constantly improve and they find the lessons fun and enjoyable.

Q:  I don’t have any musical background or ability; can I still help my child practice?

A:  Yes.  Even if you don’t have a musical background you can monitor the practice regiment of your child.  Many parents occasionally communicate with the teacher about the song or exercises that the student should be practicing so that they are more familiar with the teacher’s assignments and expectation for progress.
