It takes a special type of person with a special type of personality to make a great teacher, and we have only those types. All our instructors either hold or are pursuing music degrees in music and all have had prior experience teaching music. Once hired, our instructors undergo a comprehensive training program and are continually monitored to ensure consistent excellence. Click here to read more about our renowned hiring practices.
AMAZING MUSIC CLASSES FOR AGES 3-5
We offer a unique early childhood music program for ages 3-5 called Level Up Junior which is different from all the rest. Our youngest students prepare for private lessons through a structured, progressive, 10-level curriculum involving games, worksheets, instruments, singing, and small group class instruction.
FREE MONTHLY RECITALS
Students want to feel motivated to practice and parents want to see progress, and our optional recitals accomplish both these objectives. We offer a variety of recital options and themes in our very own concert hall every month so you can choose the ideal time to fit into your busy schedule. We pride ourselves on our well-organized, warm, supportive performance events which never last longer than an hour... and they’re entirely free for all involved!
LEVEL UP MUSIC ACHIEVEMENT PROGRAM
Our students have been enthusiastically climbing from levels 1 through 10, earning certificates, wristbands, stickers, and trophies since we launched this signature program in 2012. Think about the martial arts Black Belt program… but for music lessons! This structured, nationally recognized, and motivating program is completely free (and optional) for Expressions students of all ages, and our students have never been more motivated to master their instrument!
PROFESSIONAL OFFICE STAFF AVAILABLE 7 DAYS A WEEK TO SERVE YOU
Many music studio desks are staffed by the teacher or owner or more commonly, an answering machine. We have a team of super caring administrative professionals who are available at the front desk to assist our students warmly and effectively in person, by phone, by email, or by text seven days a week. We think you will quickly find we are one of the most organized companies you have ever worked with!
FLEXIBLE SCHEDULING AND MAKEUP OPTIONS 7 DAYS A WEEK
We have many weekday afternoon and evenings and Saturday and Sunday morning and afternoon lesson times, and we're open all year round, including the summer. If you need to cancel your lesson or change your lesson time, no problem! Our busy families love our convenient unlimited makeup lesson and schedule change policy. And if you’re too busy or unable to come in for a make-up lesson, you can even request that your teacher create you a custom 10-20 minute video make-up lesson! There are plenty of flexible options for all.
PLENTY OF PARKING, BEAUTIFUL FACILITY, AND SPACIOUS LESSON ROOMS
We are so incredibly proud of our beautiful, clean, bright, and spacious facilities! Most studios hold their lessons in small and almost closet-sized rooms, but we think it is important to learn in an open, airy, inspiring environment with natural light and tasteful décor! We believe learning music should be seriously fun, and we like for our facility to represent both the serious and fun natures of what we do and who we are!
WAITING ROOMS AVAILABLE FOR BOTH PARENTS AND CHILDREN
We have spacious and comfortable waiting areas for our families with free WIFI, magazines, water, and complimentary hot coffee and tea. For the younger students or siblings, we have our Music Lab with fully-loaded music education iPads, a music coloring station, music books, music games, and more. Our students and their families LOVE hanging out in the Music Lab!
ALL LESSON MATERIALS conveniently available
All of our students are given an official Expressions binder and tote bag to carry all of their materials and keep them organized, free of charge. And when your instructor notifies us that you need the next book or an additional book, we will order it for you for convenient pick-up at your next lesson! All starting materials like notebooks, binders, and a tote bag as well as recitals and our Level Up Music Achievement Program are included in the affordable monthly tuition.
COMPETITION OPPORTUNITIES AVAILABLE
For students who enjoy a little extra push, there are competition opportunities available for Expressions students through the American Guild of Music. AGM competitions cater to students of all ages, levels, and instruments, and our students who participate always feel excited and motivated to practice and compete again the next year. Competitions are always optional and we never require our students to perform or compete.
