Instrument Tuition
We have a high calibre of tutors onsite everyday for the convenience of students wishing to have instrumental or vocal lessons while at College.
Our tutors come with a wealth of professional and tutorial experience and are well equipped to tutor students of all ages and abilities.
Students are taken out of class for their 30 minute lesson during College hours.
It is essential that students who participate in instrument tuition have an instrument of their own at home to practise on in order to progress and enjoy their musical learning.
Timetabling is at the discretion of the tutor and specific time slots requested can only be considered, not guaranteed. Lessons are directly invoiced by the tutors to the parents and the College does not accept money for instrument tuition.
Parent Involvement is key
Learning a new instrument, language or skill is one of life’s great challenges. It can be incredibly rewarding as the development of new skills encourages us to grow and discover new ways of thinking and working. There will be ups and downs, of course, and as a parent it is important to be encouraging and positive during the downs and ups to ensure a lifelong love of learning.
Your support and encouragement at practice time is invaluable. Give your child a practice area where they can play without too much distraction. Make sure they have the equipment they need and good lighting. Encourage small amounts of practice time each day, rather than one big session on the weekend. It’s much easier to form a habit of 10 minutes each day. Although you may not know how to play the instrument yourself, you can still help by supervising and helping to schedule practice time.
Protect your child from feeling overwhelmed. With so much to learn, so much to get right, it can feel pretty overwhelming. This is normal! Understand that it is a long process with a wonderful end result. Be patient and encouraging. Have a little family concert each week to help your child show off their new skills and build confidence.
