Why learn from Music House?
We teach music in a similar way that one might learn a language: through immersion. Our research based and data-driven curriculum helps students to excel not only in music but in other academic subjects since they are getting practice and reinforcement in communication skills. Listening, respect and sensitivity towards an instrument, mimicking, improvising, positive reinforcement, pride in achievements, goal-oriented discipline, and expectation of parent support are all pillars of our curriculum that help a student to excel with music and beyond! Music House instructors believe in making learning fun and engaging through educational games that motivate young musicians! We also believe every child can learn and we work hard to make sure every child does learn. Most importantly, Music House prioritizes the safety of your child at all times.
