I have been learning electric guitar here for 2 years best session of my people here are so nice and helpful
How much fun is this! A terrific path towards learning an instrument…. proving the School of Rock is for all ages (I’m 56)…… my son, 10, inspired me…
Total blast.
My son (12) plays drums, and my daughter (14) plays guitar. We’ve been going to SoR Natick since late February and they are having a great time.
It is expensive, especially with two kids going at the same time, but if you count the 2.5 hours a week of rehearsal time + the .75 hours a week of instruction time it comes out to about $23/hour ($325 a month divided by ~14 hours/month). Granted they are not playing for the full 2.5 hours of rehearsal time, it’s still a good value if you consider music store lessons are $25-$35 for a *half* hour.
The performance program also encourages the kids to practice more often then when they were taking individual lessons. If you value working as a team as a valuable life skill, but your child is not a team sports kind of kid (or maybe you’re not a team sports kind of parent…) SoR is a great program for them to learn work as a team while building a skill they’ll have for life.
Greenwood Music Camp
Address: 32 Harlow Rd, Cummington, MA 01026 , Bieńkówka , Massachusetts , United States
It’s truly a very Greenwood. We play music and also music and there’s music. Don’t go if you don’t like music because this camp is very music. If you play violin, viola, cello, flute, oboe, clarinet, bassoon, or horn, then you should Greenwood because Greenwood is Greenwood. Don’t come expecting to see green wood, because you will not find any. However there is music and also real life among us on the last week. I met people at Greenwood. They are all very.
I had a fantastic time here on a fall retreat with the Harvard Glee Club! This music camp is wonderfully isolated from the rest of the world and instead surrounds you with beautiful greenery. The practice halls are very homely, and the living accommodations are quite decent. Would definitely love to visit again.
Kids love it. The camp director Debbie is amazing.
this place took nico from me

What a fabulous community at the Wakefield SOR, my son calls it his second home. The faculty at Wakefield are professional, touring musicians, who are superb at growing confidence and competence. They offer excellent instruction, and have high standards but are really fun, compassionate individuals. Great role models.
Very professional!
There is a real sense of community. They create a space for creative kids to be themselves and listen to what the kids are interested in.
Unfair and whilst going I never felt very welcomed
School of Rock
Address: 1250 Washington St, Norwood, MA 02062 , Bieńkówka , Massachusetts , United States
My daughter takes voice, drums, keys, and performance group at SOR. She has also done camps and a song writing workshop, and I can’t say enough about how amazing all of the teachers are. Having lessons combined with performance group is exactly what she needed to push herself musically, and it’s what sets this school apart from others because these are not just music lessons, it’s truly a music education. The environment is also extremely welcoming and it’s great to see so many different types of kids being themselves and working together in the safe space SOR has created for music lovers.
My daughter’s been taking drum lessons at SoR for a little over a year, and the school and teachers really keep her engaged and interested. The Rock 101 program is pretty amazing, as well — what better way to learn than by doing??!! She had so much fun at her first performance and can’t wait until the next one. She’s also looking forward to SoR camp this summer.
And big shoutout to Cassie, who’s been (and continues to be) so helpful and understanding of our needs during our time here.
The School of Rock in Norwood is helping to fulfill an old guitar player’s desire to get back what what was lost decades ago. They listen to what your needs are and are not shy about suggesting different paths to get you where you want to be. I couldn’t be happier with the lessons I’ve received. The enthusiasm and positive reinforcement I get from the instructors will keep me coming back. My retirement years just around the corner will be absolutely epic. So, all you elder players out there that want to dust off your axes, keyboards, drums or whatever – this is the place that can make it happen for you. If we get enough older folks involved we will be able to perform together and show the youngsters out there what started everything they are now working on!!
Update Sept 2023: The Norwood School of Rock fell apart in Spring 2023 due to actions of the owners. Big staff and leadership turnover. They are currently trying to get back on their feet. I ended up leaving due to the culture shock.
Original review: I am learning drums and am part of the adult rock band group at School of Rock Norwood. Combining the lesson with the group is a great way to stay motivated. The group is chill and accepting of all of its members. The staff are zany, super smart, and talented. They get you playing, giving just enough theory and exercises to get you good enough to play, mixed with lots of playing real songs from day 1. Thanks for making my day, School of Rock Norwood!

My son loves the format, can’t recommend this method enough, he’s very engaged and enthusiastic about going to lessons! The owner Mark and his employees are very nice and accommodating to my son and I. We highly recommend School of Rock Burlington!
Our kids had a blast at School of Rock camp with Mark, Celine, and Hannah. I cannot recommend this method and team enough! our kids had no real music experience and came out of the camp excited to learn more and hone their new skills as music lovers. Thank you!

My daughter loves rock music and it is fun to see her following her passion. Being in a band has given her an opportunity to learn about the importance of commitment; how to work as a group; and that each person’s contribution is valuable. She has gained more confidence in herself. She has recently started taking private lessons at Bach 2 Rock with her Rock Band teacher. The one on one time is helping her grow in her instrument.
Great instructors!
Kid friendly classes in all instruments with many time choices
Brookline Music School
Address: 25 Kennard Rd, Brookline, MA 02445 , Bieńkówka , Massachusetts , United States
I took voice lessons here with Bethany as did my 13 year old son. It’s not easy to teach an adult and a teenager but, somehow she did it! It was a great experience. We both loved it here. My son would beg me to take him each week! Very highly recommend it here for any type of music instruction.
They were always punctual, polite and reasonably priced here. 🙂
Love music connections kids rock band class! My 4 year old is so excited to go each week and try her hand at the keyboard, electric guitar and drums. Troy and Darren are fantastic!
We could not be happier with the music instruction our kids get at the Music Connection. Bethany is an amazingly talented voice instructor but she is also a fabulous teacher. To watch her work with kids…magic! Nat is a patient clarinet instructor to our young child that amazingly has taken to learning this instrument along with a bit of piano too. He inspired her so much that she brought him in for show and tell! (the 4/5 star is only because the space itself could use some fixing up but the Bethany and Nat deserve 5/5 stars and more!!)
Powers Music School
Address: 160 Lexington St, Belmont, MA 02478 , Bieńkówka , Massachusetts , United States
We love the music pops (for infants and toddlers). The teacher is very nice and good at motivating parents and children to sing and dance together. We love the songs. Listening to the songs and singing them in the car with our daughter in the car everyday is such a great fun! We have attended two sessions. Highly recommend this class for parents with infants and/or children aged up to 4!
Great school: well run, offering a wide range of music classes, and with excellent teachers
Enjoying Music Pups, songs are addictive
I have taken all 4 of my children to Music Pups at Powers over the years. We love it! The older kids still sing the songs.
They are not helpful they waste my money didn’t helped me for that i paid whole summer tuition but we couldn’t get more than 2 classes because of their misunderstanding and they did nothing for that !!!!!!!!
I Hate it so much
I bought a whole session piano class for my niece and then the course was not sufficient so her mom decided to drop but they did not allow for a refund. When she called them to postpone remaining classes for next season they said its okay but asked for extra money from her. Very disappointed. Money is gone without my niece taking any valuable classes!
