Are we the right music academy for you?
Purple Deer Music lessons are taught in an encouraging environment with the student’s musical interests, level of skill, prior experience and musical goals in mind. All students can learn to play an instrument. Students are allowed to explore, be creative and have fun at their lessons. They are taught music appreciation as well as music theory, including scales and chords, composition, transposing pieces, note reading, sight reading and correct technique – just to name a few. Lessons at Purple Deer Music pair the student and teacher together as partners in learning.
Students practice at their lesson what they will need to do at home. Students are taught how to set a practice goal and how many times they will need to practice to achieve that outcome. This way, when practicing at home, students make less mistakes and learning is accelerated. Music practice is not viewed as homework – it’s actually fun! Students can’t walk by their instrument without playing something.
