Lessons
We Teach Fun, Structured, and Rewarding Lessons
Our lessons are structured so you learn music fundamentals through the songs you love. Before we start teaching we discover the student's favorite musical genre and style, so we can focus on the right songs for their level. Then we work on song after song, teaching each fundamental building block at that magic moment when the student needs it to tackle the song. The student earns the amazing feeling of satisfaction and achievement from learning a song they’ve always wanted to play, and gains confidence from knowing that this new learning can be applied to even more songs!
A typical lesson might include rhythm exercises, reading exercises, correct posture and how to hold your instrument the right way. Lessons are available for 30, 45 or 60 minutes.
Here are some more specifics by instrument:
Violin
From how to hold the bow to how to hold the violin, and then how to use the bow to play the strings, we teach the fundamentals from the start. We focus on scales, reading music and building a repertoire of songs.
Drums
Beginning students start with rhythmic studies using hands only, before moving on to the full drum set. Students learn
to read music notation while tackling their favorite songs.
We offer in home lessons for drums as well as lessons
at the studio.
Bass Guitar
Students learn to read tab and music notation while mastering bass lines, chord arpeggios, while learning classic and new songs.
Ukulele
With In Tune’s own Play Ukulele! curriculum, students start with basic chords and strumming patterns, learn how to read chord charts and tab, while learning to sing their favorite songs.
Voice
Proper warm up and care of the voice is stressed in these lessons, where students learn how to develop proper pitch and timbre while developing their tonality, range and strength.
Piano
Students begin playing, learning the fingerings of familiar tunes and developing their rhythmic understanding before moving on to playing in different positions while learning note names and reading music notation.
Guitar
With In Tune’s own Play Guitar! curriculum, students start with basic chords and strumming patterns, learn how to read chord charts and tab, and soon move on to reading music notation, all while tackling classic songs along with their favorites.
