HOW WE TEACH

Twenty years of experience and hundreds of thousands of students have taught us that playing music with others results in stronger proficiency compared to conventional music education. Working toward and experiencing live performance is the core of our curriculum. Our students grow as individuals by taking the stage with others. While our students work with bandmates, they learn broader life skills like collaboration, compromise and courage.

We call this revolutionary approach to music education The School of Rock Method™. The School of Rock Method builds musical proficiency through our proprietary Method App, Method Book collection, and SongFirst approach. Our Method has been awarded a patent making our teaching system available nowhere else.

School of Rock’s PERFORMANCE BASED MUSIC EDUCATION includes programs for all ages and skill levels.
