Give your child a gift that can never be taken away! Reading music and playing an instrument is not for the few, talented and privileged. It is a skill acquired through learning and practice. Those that learn to read music and play an instrument often excel in other areas of life as well. This is because participation in music (especially playing an instrument) requires higher functions of the brain. Learning to play the piano for instance improves coordination, concentration, reading and math. Research has been proving this for years! |
| Class Piano lessons, Guitar Lessons, and Voice Lessons are a stimulating and fun way for children to learn to read music and play an instrument!

| At Music Makers for Life the focus is on learning to read and play or sing music for the individual child. The goal is not to create the next Mozart or Beethoven (We don't expect every child who learns to read and write to become the next Hemingway!) We want your little musician to be confident and enjoy the musical experience. Kids love their piano lessons, guitar lessons and voice lessons because we make it fun! |

| ABOUT Us: As with any skill worth learning, a certain amount of "work" is involved. Most people use the word "practice" when the skill required involves a musical instrument (including the Voice). Those that perceive this "practice" time as being enjoyable learn at a much faster pace than students that perceive it as "work". It is with this in mind that we keep piano lessons, guitar lessons, and voice lessons as enjoyable as possible, while still maintaining a serious attitude about the music. MUSIC MONEY AND PARTIES! For Private guitar lessons and piano lesson Students: When a student plays their piano lesson or guitar lesson assignment with perfection, they receive a music dollar. When possible (at least once a year) a music party is held which involves playing a piece in front of their peers (thus receiving five more music dollars!), playing informative music games, and purchasing their choice of items. The items range from music socks, music shirts, music pens, music pencils, music tote bags, CD's, picks, tuners.....well, you get the idea! In the class setting, the students play games to reinforce material learned. They earn music money during many of these games! They are able to spend the money during class sessions. MUSIC RECITAL Once a year a formal recital is held at a nearby church in Crystal Lake, Illinois for private students. It includes all students. All friends and family members are welcome to atten |
