Just started but good so far

Great environment for kids of all levels. Tony is great, my son has really appreciated his dedication to teaching proper technique drums. The staff is friendly, organized and energetic, you can tell the staff have a love and appreciation for music!

45 min lesson time is just right Weekly rehearsal fun and educational Online lesson management

My daughter has loved the format of the lessons and being part of a real band!

School of Rock is an excellent place to learn how to play better, how to play with others and to meet people who share our interests and become friends.

The commitment of the teachers to not only see the students succeed and become better musicians, but also to make sure that the process is enjoyable.

I love that School of Rock provides kids with the opportunity to explore instruments and singing outside the classic environment. I love that they mix the kids up in ages so they are exposed to older kids and younger. It's an amazing place.

45 min lesson duration is just right Group practice and performance is a fun team activity

Todd is great to work with and my daughter likes all the teachers.

It’s fun!

It’s about the most fun you can have as an adult.

The one-on-one lessons are awesome. The show directors clearly communicate to the staff that teach the lessons where they need to work or focus. It shows within the performances. The staff is friendly and encouraging always ready to jump in when assistance on stage is needed. They are all so talented.

I really like how School of Rock provides individual lessons that focus on helping students learn and improve songs they will perform at a concert. Having weekly group rehearsals allows students to play the songs with others and socialize in a fun, casual, and supportive environment. People even cheer each other on and applaud during rehearsals which goes to show how encouraging group members are when it comes to seeing the progress that has been made and striving to help one another put on the best possible performance. I also like how people can choose which group they would like to join based on their musical interests and the songs they know and enjoy. Overall, School of Rock does a great job giving children and adults the experience of playing in a band while making sure that they are having a fun and engaging time as they prepare songs for a performance. In addition, I like how group members not only tell each other what they are doing well but also how they can improve their songs. As a result, people know which parts of a song or songs they should practice the most and what specifically they can do to make the songs sound better.

You challenge musicians and singers (who are musicians) to grow while we enjoy great music, the creative process and each other's company. For anyone who loves music, that's the best experience.

Teachers all bring something useful and different. As an older learner that’s key!

Last night we went to our daughters show. Sly/Family Stone-Eart Wind Fire in New Canaan. I was shocked at the how professional the show was. The music was tight and everyone was fully prepared and it ROCKED!

The programs are great- instructors are awesome. I enjoy spending Monday nights with the other members of the band focusing on music and great social vibe. Mariola runs a great operation. My only concern is that it sometimes is tough to book make up sessions on the system as there are not many evening slots open. Also the groups for the adult program are getting larger and larger (a testament to the great experience), which makes it difficult to schedule make up sessions. Maybe they should split each night into an A and B sub group within each night. Overall an exceptional program.

Kids are motivated to practice and have fun with new friends

So much fun; great way to continue making music and meet wonderful people

Combining individual lessons with performance experience makes learning Fun!
