- What is your typical process for working with a new customer?
WHAT DO YOU LEARN IN YOUR MUSIC LESSONS? This question is often asked by prospective students. Our teachers make it a priority to get to know you on a personal level, becoming familiar with your personal musical needs and goals. We do not treat every student the same in terms of how we teach. A seven year old taking guitar lessons for the first time will have very different needs than a fifty-seven year old taking up piano lessons for the second time after having taken lessons as a child. The main reason to choose the Academy as your music lesson provider is that we are sensitive to the fact that every student is an individual. If you enroll here for music lessons, we will work with you to make a plan that will fit your needs and musical preferences. At the first lesson your teacher will ask you about your favorite type of music, and set goals to help accomplish whatever musical aspirations you have for yourself or for your child. WHAT STYLE OF MUSIC DO YOU TEACH? We teach all styles from rock, pop, jazz, country, blues, and classical.
- What education and/or training do you have that relates to your work?
We have over 24 music teachers, all with both college training and professional performance experience. They have warm personalities, are extremely friendly, and are dedicated to learning about your personal musical goals and helping you to achieve them. With over 30 years of teaching experience, director Brannon Hungness personally selects every teacher at his music school. Whether you take guitar lessons, violin lessons, piano lessons, drum lessons, or voice lessons, if you take music lessons from the Rochester Academy of Music and Arts, you know you'll always learn the music you want to learn!
