What's Makes Us Different

WHY WE DON'T OFFER THE MAKEUP CLASS

A: AT HAPPY MINDS SCHOOL OF MUSIC,  WE ENSURE THAT EVERY INSTRUCTOR WE HIRE IS A MUSICIAN WITH YEARS OF CONSERVATORY TRAINING.  WE PROVIDE PROFESSIONAL INSTRUCTION AND FEEDBACKS BASED ON YEARS OF TEACHING AND PERFORMANCE EXPERIENCES  ON YOUR OR YOUR CHILD'S LESSONS  OUT OF OUR SINCERE CARE FOR YOUR LEARNING PROGRESS.  WE HIGHLY VALUE YOUR RESPECT FOR OUR TIME, DEDICATION, AND EFFORT WHILE WE HELP YOU AND YOUR CHILD TO BUILD LASTING SKILLS.  AS YOU ATTEND CLASSES AT THE SCHOOL, KINDLY NOTE THAT REFUNDS ARE NOT AVAILABLE IF YOU HAVE MISSED THE LESSON.

​

YOU DON'T NEED TO WORRY ABOUT THE MAKEUP CLASS WHEN IT COMES TO A CANCELLATION

A:  AT HAPPY MINDS SCHOOL OF MUSIC, WE IMPLEMENT A FIXED MONTHLY FEE FROM SEPTEMBER TO JUNE, WHICH EQUATES TO THE YEARLY TUITION BEING DIVIDED INTO 10 MONTHLY PAYMENTS. THIS FEE REMAINS CONSTANT REGARDLESS OF HOLIDAYS OR CANCELLATIONS. BY FOLLOWING OUR CALENDAR AND ATTENDING ALL LESSONS, YOU CAB BENEFIT FROM OVER 40 LESSONS THROUGHOUT THE ACADEMIC YEAR. 

​

YOU DON'T NEED TO WORRY ABOUT THE HUGE COST OF DEVELOPING YOUR KIDS MUSICAL SKILL

A: OUR MONTHLY MEMBERSHIP GIVES YOU THE FLEXIBILITY TO SHARE YOUR MEMBERSHIP WITH YOUR FAMILY OR ACROSS TO DIFFERENT INSTRUMENTAL LEARNING.  PLUS, OUR MEMBERSHIP IS FLEXIBLE AND TO BE CANCELLED AT ANY TIME. BEST OF ALL, HAPPY MINDS SCHOOL OF MUSIC CONSIDERS LEARNING MUSIC CAN BE STRESSFUL IN THIS UNCERTAIN ECONOMY.  TAKE ADVANTAGE OF OUR DISCOUNTED MONTHLY TUITION AND SAVE MONEY ON LESSONS. DESPITE OFFERING TUITION AT A RATE BELOW THE CURRENT MARKET PRICE ($48/30-min), OUR SERVICES EXCEED WHAT OTHER SCHOOLS CAN OFFER. 

​

YOU DON'T NEED TO WORRY ABOUT THE ADDITIONAL COST OF BUILDING WELL-ROUNDED MUSICIANSHIP

A: THE CONSERVATORY PREPARATORY MONTHLY MEMBERSHIP ALLOWS OUR STUDENTS TO MAXIMIZE THEIR USE FOR THEIR NEEDS; THIS IS GREAT NEWS FOR THOSE WHO HAVE BEEN CONSIDERING SIGNING UP FOR MULTIPLE LESSONS OR TWO INSTRUMENTAL LEARNING, AS IT CAN SIGNIFICANTLY REDUCE THE COST OF TUITION. 

​

YOU DON'T NEED TO WORRY ABOUT OUR PROFESSIONALS. 

A: WE ARE DEDICATED TO HELPING EACH OF OUR STUDENTS TO DEVELOP THEIR MUSICAL KNOWLEDGE AND SKILLS WITH EVERY LESSON THEY TAKE; THEREFORE, INSTRUCTORS WILL RECORD WEEKLY ASSIGNMENTS FOR THE STUDENTS.  FOR OUR STUDENTS WHO WANT TO EVALUATE THEIR PROGRESS IN LEARNING, HAPPY MINDS SCHOOL OF MUSIC PROVIDES A YEARLY EVALUATION FOR STUDENTS TO EARN RIBBONS BASED ON THEIR SKILL LEVEL.  WE ALSO PUT AN EMPHASIS ON PUBLIC PERFORMANCES BY OFFERING 4 RECITALS PER A SCHOOL YEAR TO BUILD OUR STUDENTS' STAGE CONFIDENCE, WHICH HELPS ENSURE THE LESSON IS BEING TAUGHT EFFECTIVELY AND PRODUCTIVELY.

​

YOU DON'T NEED TO WORRY ABOUT THE LONG-TERM COMMITMENT OR CHANGE YOUR MEMBERSHIP STATUS

A: THE CANCELLATION IS EASY WITH A WRITTEN NOTIFICATION, WHICH CAN BE CANCELLED OR UPGRADED/DOWNGRADED 15 DAYS BEFORE YOUR NEXT BILLING CYCLE.
