Frequently asked questions about Woodward Academy of Music
What ages do you offer classes to? We offer classes to all ages! From 6 month to adult, we have a music program that you can fit into. Form our Mom & Me classes to our group and private classes, we are certain you will find a fit here at WAM!
Can you tell me about your teachers? Our teachers for the very young are well versed in music instruction and have varying experience and certification. Our private lessons and group lessons are taught by a teacher with a degree in music education. To be a teacher with our school, you must undergo a full background check as well as drug testing. Our staff and faculty know that we can ask for a drug test at any time they are employed with us.
What type of music classes do you offer? Just about everything. We offer music classes for the very young (6 mo to 30 mo) in our Mom & Me classes through adult! We try to match up our potential students request for private instruction to a qualified teacher. From musical instrument to voice, we offer a great program that can add value to your life and education. Our hope is to be able to add small group choir and childrens choir in the fall 2010. If you have a special instrument you want to learn, give us a call and request it. We will do our very best to find the right teacher for you.
Is the music program year round or in sessions? The classes for the very young and group classes are by session. The classes for private instructin are year round, although the summer classes will be on a different schedule to allow our teachers to have some time with their families.
How long are the classes? It depends on the class selected, level and age of student. Classes for the very young are 30 minutes, private classes for older or more advanced students can be45 to 55 minutes depending on the recommendation by the teacher.Group classes are 45 to 60 minutes.
Why should we take private instruction from your school? We believe that our schools reputation for quality instruction speaks on it own. Our teachers are background checked and they each know that we can ask for a drug test at anytime. We also hire only those that are qualified to be teaching. Our teachers either have a degree in music education or a very strong and proven background in music education. But even the most quailfied person is not always the best teacher. Therefore we also look at personalities to make sure that they are a good fit for our students.
We also offer many parental conveniences to our busy families like our 24/7 Parental Portal to check their account and their childs skill levels.We also offer technology in our classes, such as our computer lab for music theory. Our students that take private classes receive 15 to 25 minutes in the computer lab working on music theory prior to their lessons with the teacher. This means that our students are paying for a 30 minute class and actually receive a 45 minute to 55 minute class depending on level of student.
