Our experience with School of Rock Wakefield has been fantastic. My son takes guitar and drum lessons with the talented instructor, Josh. Under his guidance, my son has grown as a musician and gained confidence. Being part of the 101 rock band has been amazing, with exhilarating performances and remarkable progress. The school provides a nurturing environment, supportive staff, and top-notch facilities. They offer a comprehensive musical education, inspiring creativity and fostering a love for music. We highly recommend School of Rock Wakefield for any aspiring musician.
The teachers at School of Rock Wakefield are in a class of their own. They all share the uncanny ability to teach music at a high level, to infuse joy into lessons, and to create life-long musicians. It is not easy to find one teacher like this, let alone a whole music school full of them! We feel very fortunate to have our children in a place that has their values pointed in the right direction.
Our son had a fantastic experience this summer. The program exceeded our expectations by far. We will be back again for sure!
Unfair and whilst going I never felt very welcomed

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 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!

I have been learning electric guitar here for 2 years best session of my people here are so nice and helpful
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.
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.

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!!
Connor is the man! Vocal or drum lessons, his approach is fantastic, laid back, but super professional
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!
