6. Free music recitals and student showcases with NO participation fees!
We are one of the only music school in Columbia that offers free recitals.
Every parent just wants to know how their child is doing and if they are really progressing. The best way for a parent to understand if their investment in lessons is really worth it, is to have their child participate in a recital.
7. Professional office staff seven days a week to serve you.
We are the only music school in Columbia that offers full time professional customer service for their students seven days a week.
Many music studio desks are staffed by salespeople, or more commonly – an answering machine. We have office team members who are available at the front desk to assist our clients quickly and professionally.
8. Trophies, certificates and award wristbands to celebrate achievement.
We are the only music school in the state of Maryland that gives their students the opportunity to earn special color wristband bracelets (kids and teens love them!), trophies AND certificates for passing musical tests. Do other schools offer trophies and certificates? A few. But none of them inspire their students with smiling faces (see pictures to the right) by giving them full color, really cool “Musical Ladder®” wristbands that they can show off to their friends. The Musical Ladder® is our unique method of music education that you can only get here.
More importantly when our students have a test coming up, they practice more, their parents are proud, their teachers are proud, and everybody wins. You can only get the Musical Ladder® here. We also specialize in music lessons for adults.
9. Student Discount Cards.
We are the only music school in Columbia that offers student discount cards for their students which saves them money all throughout the year.
The Academy also sells music books, instruments and accessories. All of our current students receive a student discount card that saves them money on all of their music supply needs.
