School of Rock has such positive energy, the teachers are patient, encouraging and talented – we love having our daughter learning to play guitar while also learning to play her favorite songs! We highly recommend
My son loves going to class and learning new songs to play!
School of Rock Oceanside has very encouraging and patient instructors. They have a special way of opening up a student’s mind and make learning fun! They nurture their students’ skills and growth. I highly recommend School of Rock, Oceanside!

We cannot say enough about School of Rock. Everyone from the staff to the students are simply amazing! We are not residents of Del Mar but we are locals and enjoy many of the shops and restaurants in Del Mar Plaza and the surrounding area. We find ourselves in the area even more now that our son has recently joined a show group at the School of Rock Del Mar in Del Mar Plaza. This past year has been rough for everyone, especially the kids. School is at home, no travel, essentially no outlet for the kiddos. We are so thankful for School of Rock and not only the safety measures they have taken from their opening but for all they have done through the pandemic and currently do. Music has been the one thing that has been constant over this year and being able to get out and play and perform with his peers really made a difference.
Listening and watching these kids, these young adults play has also been very therapeutic for us adults as well. I know as an adult I do not have the courage to even give a speech in front of a crowd let alone what these amazing rock stars are doing. What they learn at School of Rock will help them as they grow, life lessons they will be able to take with them. I know not every song or every group is someone’s favorite but these kids are playing every song with heart and soul and we are truly amazed by their skills. The teachers and staff are amazing and always friendly, most important their students are number one. They are so supportive of all their students. School of Rock Del Mar is overall an incredible place.
I love the show programs here!
Beautiful new School of Rock! Of course the place is an amazing spot to learn how to be a rockstar but this location specifically is gorgeous! From the flooring to the wall art everything is perfect. Right on the beach too! Aside from the vibe of the place the teachers are of course top notch. The guy who owns this place also owns the one in scripps ranch and it’s run just as well. Love this program! Can’t say enough good things about it!

The neon sign in the front window that says ‘OPEN & ROCKIN’ pretty much says it all.
School of Rock provides such a unique experience for students. All three locations in the Sacramento area have their own charm, personality, and sense of camaraderie. I can’t wait to see the school when it’s finished.
So glad they have this in sac! Kid enjoys it
Would give zero stars it would let me. Scheduled my 9 year old daughter’s drum lesson over phone. She was very excited! Showed up and they had not Scheduled her, drum instructor was gone for the day, and they had no idea what happened? Unbelievably unprofessional, and worst of all, I had to look at the disappointment on my daughter’s face. I thought this was going to be a positive situation for her, instead they let her down.
My disabled partner was looking for something fun to do in-between speech therapies and physical therapies. He needed something to take his mind off of things, something that may also be therapeutic. So, we decided to schedule a singing lesson at the school of rock. His speech therapist agreed, it was a great idea.
Hi appointment was scheduled for May 27 at 10:30am. They asked us to arrive at 10:15am. We planned the days schedule around the appointment. We showed up at 10:15am, as instructed. When we arrived they told my partner the vocal instructor had called in sick. They had been open since 9am yet they didn’t bother to call or email to cancel. They offered to reschedule for the following Saturday. We agreed.
Again they said to arrive at 10:15am for a 10:30 appointment on June 3rd. Again we planed our schedule around the appointment. However, around noon on the 2nd we received an email saying the appointment had been moved to 11:30am on the 3rd due to a staffing issue. We thought “Okay, well at least they contacted us in advance this time.”
We rearranged our schedule for the day. We arrived at 11:15am for an 11:30am appointment, as requested. Again they said someone didn’t show up, they didn’t have enough staff to cover the appointment.
I asked the person at the front desk why they hadn’t contacted us in advance for either cancellation. Their first response was to pass the buck and say “I don’t know I’m only here on Saturdays.” Perhaps this person isn’t payed enough to take responsibility for anything. Perhaps they aren’t payed enough to put in any amount of effort and make the situation right. I don’t know. I can only speculate. After some disingenuous apologies, an ear full of excuses, and no offer to make the situation right, we left unsatisfied.
The bottom line:
This company hasn’t any semblance of courtesy, consideration, reliability or professionalism. They wouldn’t know customer service if it bit them in their bass.

Great instructors and experience for kids and young adults. My son has really excelled there and developed a lot of confidence. Band experience is fantastic.
Our son had so much fun during his first experience with School of Rock! He learned a lot in a short amount of time because of the awesome format and teachers! We’ll be back!
I think you have awesome teachers! Focusing on experiencial learning and driving towards live performances is exciting and extremely motivating. I am making great friends and the classes are the highlights of my week. I am actually even learning to sing songs that I would never even have attempted. This place is awesome!

My experience with School of Rock has been mostly with private lessons and briefly with Adult Rock band. I have been playing drums for 8 years. Damon has been the perfect drum coach for me at this point. We work on rudiments, on specific songs, on improvisation, showmanship, and we just have fun. He makes me wear ear protection!
The reason I rated a 4 and not a 5 is that there is an element of rigidity in how they do things. But overall, it is an awesome place. Especially if you are a parent with a musical child it is fantastic.

We joined school of rock nearly a year ago today. To say it was a life changing experience barely does it justice. Heather has created an environment that is second to none. She clearly treats her staff and instructors well and with proper respect as I’ve seen ZERO turnover in a year. That is a feat.
Watching my kids flourish in a way I never expected. My, seemingly, shy boy is turning into a man and his experience in front of the mic is part of it for certain. And my daughter has committed to drums in a way I didn’t expect. She even got behind the mic recently to sing which she used to say she was too shy to do! Performing as part of a group is irreplaceable.
The community is what makes this place work and Heather has created a space where community is first in importance. Do yourself a favor. Send your kids here for a trial lesson! Then just skip the wait (like we should have) and just do a trial lesson for yourself for the adult band you absolutely won’t regret it

The teachers have all been amazing, and both my son and I are enjoying our lessons. We look forward to coming every week. Additionally, both of us have become more outgoing and confident in our performance ability.
Instructors are friendly and create a comfortable atmosphere. The front desk staff and director are so easy to communicate with, quick to respond to emails, and professional.
Our 8 yo and 10 yo were both in the School of Rock program. My son learned electric guitar and my daughter vocal lessons. They enjoyed their private and group practices. They loved the experience of performing on stage at the Rock101 concert!! Thank you School of Rock San Jose!! The teachers and staff are nice and fun. Kids looked forward to their lessons. Thanks!!

Santa Monica Conservatory and Music Camp
Address: 1501 Colorado Ave, Santa Monica, CA 90404 , Eischen , California , United States
This school is the crowning jewel of music conservatories. The director, the teachers, are all decorated successful musicians with classical training and their approach to teaching is both rigorous and loving. I encourage all parents who wish to cultivate out of their bright young children a true musician with the abilities of a great master to come check out some of the recitals that these gifted young kids put on. Prepare to be blown away by all the little Mozarts. My daughter is 8 and has been taking violin for two years and she is also a part of the conservatory strings orchestra. She has been taking voice lessons for about a year as well. This school has completely transformed her life.
This conservatory is run by one of the most dedicated educators I have had the pleasure of knowing.
My daughter has been taking voice lessons with Mollie Birney for the last year and she absolutely loves it. It’s been amazing to see how much her voice has grown since she started, and how much more confidence she has with her singing. Mollie is very encouraging and a great teacher, would definitely recommend.
Website said kids concert May 19th 4 to 5pm. Showed up. No note stating it was cancelled. Waste of time. We were all disappointed.

SCHOOL OF ROCK IS THE BEST! I was so impressed with this place. Such a great place for kids. The staff is so great! Wish I found this place sooner. I had no idea my kid would love music and instruments so much. HIGHLY Recommend this place.
Best music program around! Staff is amazing, program is unique, and my boys absolutely love it here! Check it out for yourself – they offer a first trial lesson for free.
Best music school around! Program is amazing and the staff even more amazing!
