Our Musician-Educators are educated, experienced, and enthusiastic. With Tuned In you can rest assured that you are receiving top quality education from musicians that have been formally educated in music, and more specifically in their specialties of music theory, composition, songwriting and lyric writing, and improvisation. These musician-educators have vast experience teaching in both private and group environments, and most importantly, they are enthusiastic: music is a passion. At Tuned In, we don't just have musicians that teach music lessons, or teachers that play music. Conservatory trained musician-educators teach all of our classes and private music lessons. Our musicians have been trained in the art of music in conservatory, and have devoted their lives not just to making music, but teaching it. They teach not because they have to, but because they love and want to. Getting to know the people we teach.

Tuned In Academy is a wonderful place for any age to learn and grow musically. The teachers are very knowledgeable and patient with individual learning styles. They take time to learn about the student, and meet them at their knowledge level. I highly recommend Tuned In Academy!

SD has helped my son understand music from a theoretical viewpoint. In a few months time, my son learned all the major/minor keys, chord structures, (and how to play them on the keyboard - my son is a violinist), helped him improve his rhythm and counting as well as his sight reading. I highly recommend SD. He is inspirational, knowledgeable, and infectious with his good humor.

Our son is heading to Berklee College of Music in Boston as a performance major (guitar) in a couple of weeks. He has been taking voice lessons with Jenna this summer at The Tuned In Academy. Wow! It's amazing how much his voice has improved, and how much his confidence has increased. He has also had a couple of music theory lessons with SD which have helped tremendously. In addition, they have provided personal insight into the demands of being a music student at Berklee. We couldn't be happier! We are so lucky to have The Tuned In Academy here in Olympia, Washington and instructors of their caliber available to us.

I have two daughters taking music lessons at The Tuned In Academy, one is learning guitar and the other cornet. My experience with both instructors has been outstanding. Both girls are making significant progress and both enjoy going to their lessons. Sean-David and Rob are very encouraging to what their students want to learn to play which keeps them more engaged. I have nothing but praise for the entire experience and am so glad I found them. I wholeheartedly recommend them to anyone looking for music instruction.

The best experience for my eight year old son. He is learning piano/keyboard with kids his age. The instructors are very friendly and knowledgeable. They teach lots of different instruments. The classes are professional, safe and affordable. I'm so glad we found this opportunity. I would recommend Tuned in Acadamy to everyone who is interested.

FAQs

  • What should the customer know about your pricing (e.g., discounts, fees)?

    We are tuition based, this means that you can know ahead of time the rate you will be paying is fixed so you know what to expect. When you find a timeslot that works with your teacher, that is your slot. Lessons are weekly or twice monthly as you and your teacher agree upon, and the tuition will remain the same throughout. We do have regularly scheduled breaks for spring break, end of summer, end of spring, and two weeks at Christmastime. These breaks have been factored into our tuition costs already. There is a one time $15 registration fee.

  • What is your typical process for working with a new customer?

    It depends on the student, but we will most often with a new student begin the first lesson with a thorough introduction to the instrument itself, then an introduction to reading music notation. Students with experience will usually begin by telling us about themselves and the music they enjoy, and then they will play something for us.

  • What education and/or training do you have that relates to your work?

    All of our teachers are highly capable and qualified. Many are college educated with degrees from major universities and colleges. Even our associate and student faculty will still teach with the same fundamentals in mind as we are a team and all get together regularly on these essentials.
