Why Group Lessons?

When you have been teaching for a long time in a certain format, it is hard to convert to a new curriculum. Especially when the standard for piano lessons has been the same since the beginning of time. We are so thankful for the support of our students, parents, family, and friends helping us achieve something we never thought possible with private lessons! 

When we started this program, we knew the idea of independent and interactive learning would increase student knowledge of the music they were working on, but how to get there was a completely different question. With a few webinars, conferences, and a lot of team work we were able to convert 93% of our students into this "group" format and have seen these students excel like we never seen before!
So you ask the question, "Why Group Lessons?"
The best kind of learning comes from student-based teaching. In other words, when students are given the opportunity to work independently, it opens the door for them to expand on what they have already learned. Independent-based learning centers around the idea of critically challenging students to think "Outside the Bachs" (see what I did there?), forming their own questions and ideas for a better understanding. 
With the right resources and the given chance to think critically, we find our students excelling at a faster rate and maintaining the focus to achieve their goals!
So if you're on the fence about signing your child up for group lessons, give it a shot! With our experience, you and your student will LOVE it! (:
