School of rock is awesome, The instrcutors are friendly and relate well to students. They help students learn and excell in a very short period of time
Great program. Through music and performance, kids build their confidence and feel they belong to something that connects them to others and the world. The program is well organized and there are always venues to perform at that encourage kids to showcase their hard work.
My 8 year old son has been going to School of Rock in Atlanta for several months now and absolutely loves it! The song first approach is a genius way to introduce kids to learning to play an instrument and learn about music. The owner, Elon, is awesome and always stops whatever she may be doing to answer questions and chat about anything and everything related to their programs. My son started at the age of 7 in the Rookies program to learn general concepts about music through fun games and experience all of the instruments (keys, guitar, drums, vocals, etc…) to find the one he was the most passionate about. Tony leads the Rookies program and is the absolute best! My son loved going to hang out with Tony and couldn’t wait each week to go to his class. He is amazing with kids and keeps them fully engaged the entire time. My son is now in the Rock 101 program and learning how to play the drums. His drum instructor, Asaf, is super cool and extremely talented. My son has learned so much already. He is also enrolled in the Rock 101 summer camp right now and has so much fun everyday! We are so glad we found this place!!
Horrible pay for employees. Horrible treatment of employees. Horrible retention rate. It’s all about the money not about whats best for the students. Promised new facility for quite some time hasn’t happened. Manager is rude. Higher ups are rude with no regard or respect.
Very talented students.. They deserve better..

This place is AWESOME! My daughter takes a keyboard and voice lessons here. She also participates in Rock 101 which is a rock band for kids. School of Rock encourages their students to have fun while learning their instrument. We love this place so much that we may have signeds our daughter up for de lessons as well.
The owner and instructors are phenomenal! I highly recommend School of Rock for kids and adults looking to take lessons.
IT WAS SO MUCH FUN WE PLAYED QUEEN SONG YOU SHOULD COME HERE

atlanta festival academy! aka the best summer music camp in atlanta. i am a viola student at the camp and of its founder william pu music academy. i first attended afa’s 2019 concert and supported my best friend in the atlanta festival competition in 2020. after i started getting more into the viola, i attended afa’s camp in 2021. there, i grew so much in their chamber music program. immediately i was put with charlotte jeong (best friend and 1st violin), ellie kim (2nd violin), and abby kim (cello). and we formed the vienna string quartet! all of them have now become my best friends and we have stuck together through many performances. our first performance was actually during the AFA 2021 camp. they gave us an oppurtunity to perform for the johns creek city council on behalf of mr. william pu. we also got a chance to play at the finale concert (chamber recital) at the end of the camp, and recently got to perform at WPMA’s showcase day. this is all because of afa and it’s amazing organization. as you attend afa, you can make new friends, meet world renowned violinists, cellists, AND violists. masterclasses are also held at the camp (i participated in the masterclass featuring professor rita porfiris at the university of hartford), play in the finale concert orchestra (with a talented soloist featured every year), and take private lessons and group coachings with the vega string quartet and many other faculty members. if you are looking for a great summer experience to boost your music ability and enhance your performance skills, afa is the way to go!
okay i’m updating this review after the atlanta festival academy’s 2022 camp! and i have to say this was quite a full 2 weeks of camp! we got to perform this year with kevin zhu, and he was obviously outstanding. i got the opportunity to perform in another masterclass with mr yiwen jiang with my quartet, and i learned a lot from him. i think next year this camp will grow even more and expand even bigger than this year. i made so many new friends and met so many amazing people i cannot wait for the next afa camp!
This camp is very fun and has taught me so much about music!!!!!!!
Atlanta Festival Academy is such an amazing experience every year I participate! I look forward to the camp every year. Young musicians come together to make and perform beautiful music. The camp also offers the opportunity to learn from world-renowned musicians through masterclasses and chamber music(Orchestra and chamber ensemble) performances. Also, we get to meet amazing conductors and teachers(who teach private lessons to every one of us). Not only do I learn a lot from the amazing faculty members, I also make lifelong friends. I highly recommend this camp to any young musicians who want to experience these things. Atlanta Festival Academy is truly the best summer music camp in Atlanta!
