10 POWERFUL WAYS CHMA IS LEADING THE INDUSTRY BY OFFERING THE "NEW WORLD" APPROACH TO MUSIC LESSONS (Don't Get Left Behind with an "Old" World Approach)

  1. Enjoyable & personalized teaching system that are focused on YOUR musical interests and passion
     
  2. Play the songs you LOVE while learning mastering the techniques and theory that drives those songs.
    (Your Musical Passion + Behind The Scenes Theory = A Relevant, Enjoyable and Comprehensive Lesson Plan)
     
  3. You will actually look forward to your lessons & practicing since it focuses on what you music you love and other creative elements most instructors leave out. (This reduces the fighting with kids about practicing... assuming there is somewhat of a natural desire to take lessons!)
     
  4. Our coaches use "Results Focused Coaching Frameworks" to create an easy to use practice system. (We are not just hand writing a weekly todo list. We give you a binder that ultimately gets filled coaching frameworks and systems focused on your personal needs. 
     
  5. Get real musical RESULTS while enjoying the coaching process. (Our coaches feel a personal connection and accountability to our students results...not the case with most "OLD WORLD" instructors) 
     
  6. CHMA teachers are engaging, energetic, passionate and committed to going to any length to reach a student and inspire them to love their lessons.  
     
  7. Piano, Voice, Guitar, Drums and Bass lessons in one location custom tailored for both kids & adults (No one-size-fits-all teach methode here since everyone has different taste and learning styles.)
     
  8. We encourage our students with positive reinforcement & performance goals (No tough love tactics here)
     
  9. We understand that we are using music to shape who our students become and give them a huge confidence boost. It is NOT just about delivering information. We design our individual programs with that philosophy in mind.
     
  10. We use technology and the recording process to create a "NEW WORLD" learning environment (How cool would it be to create a studio quality recording right in your lesson?)
