    The Our Kids review of Willowdale School of Music

    our take

    If music can change the world, Willowdale School of Music (WSM) is helping to lead that change. Offering more than just music lessons, WSM teaches the students the skills and provides the tools to make the world a better place. Started by Sarah Murley-Hauser, WSM has grown from in-home lessons to a multi-instrument music school. Murley-Hauser wanted to share her knowledge and love of music and how it can make you a better person. Lessons aren’t high-pressure, but rather engaging and enjoyable, so students want to keep going and feel confident in their abilities. Teaching staff look to inspire students and they customize lessons to each child’s learning style. Kids learn that failure and hard work are integral parts of success in music, and that neither are a bad thing. Trial lessons help kids decide if they want to continue on a musical journey, and help parents decide if WSM is a good fit.

    Great progress with new students

    We have been with WSM for 6 months now and as brand new students, the kids' progresses have been phenomenal! We started lessons with Ms.Lori who was amazing and due to scheduling, now we are with Ms.Deborah who is just as amazing and patient! Apart from enjoying their lessons, kids also enjoy having performance opportunities to showcase their talent and hard work. Overall a great experience with this music school ... Show More

    My children LOVE WSM

    I cannot say enough good things about the Willowdale School of Music. We have been at this school for over a year now and both my children LOVE it. They are aged 7 and 9 years of age and are learning to play the piano and violin. They have also joined the summer camps here and will return again. There is a sense of family and community here at the school and the music curriculum and teachers are wonderful. There have been many opportunities for the children to showcase their emerging talents at concerts hosted by the school. The school has many incentives to keep the children motivated. The teachers have a beautiful way with my children and their needs. I was so impressed that I joined the school as an adult learner for singing lessons and have not been disappointed. I would highly recommend the Willowdale School of Music ... Show More

    Our son loves his guitar lessons

    As relative newcomers to Willowdale School of Music, we are so happy to have found you. Our 14 year-old son has been taking guitar lessons with Adrien and absolutely loves it. Adrien has such a positive personality and is so encouraging as a teacher. He also provides lesson plans for at-home practice and sends us progress reports which have been really helpful. Our son loves playing the guitar and practices willingly. Thanks to everyone at WSM, especially Adrien, for the fantastic experience ... Show More

    Our teacher is patient and encouraging

    Jahred is a great guitar teacher. He’s very patient and encouraging with my son. It is a pleasure to sit in the waiting room, hearing the lesson sounds from each room as many students are learning either piano, guitar, or violin ... Show More

    We had a great trial lesson

    Thank you Willowdale School of Music for a great trial lesson for my daughter. She was resistant at the idea of learning an instrument but after meeting her teacher and learning about the violin through some fun actitivies she left the building really excited to learn more about music. A great positive start to a new adventure in music ... Show More

    My daughter is confident and joyful in her music lessons

    If someone worry about which violin school is good one for their kids. Please just go taking a trial lesson at Willowdale School of Music first! My daughter has learned a violin less than 1 year in Japan, but she seemed to be very nervous and get wet with her hands, even the teacher was not strict. I just think some kids need learning it little by little. The school I could feel it is The Willowdale School of Music. Sara who is a violin teacher and director as well is amazing and grasp how to enjoy playing it with teaching skill. Now my daughter never get wet with her hands even she plays it in front of people. She seems to have some confident and joyful with music ... Show More

    Love the Willowdale School of Music! My daughter started virtual singing lessons last year and eagerly waits for classes. The teachers are not only friendly towards the children but also have a very wide and deep knowledge of Music, singing and instruments. We just signed her up for piano lessons as well because she loves the lessons so much ... Show More

    Adult student learning the violin

    I'm an adult beginner learning the violin, and have been learning from Sarah for about five months now. I'm glad to have found her. She's a gifted teacher! Sarah is very knowledgeable, uses analogies and looks for fun tips and tricks to help you learn, and it's obvious that she is committed to her students' learning. She's funny, and makes me laugh every lesson. :) She is thorough and has high standards, which I appreciate, but she also makes learning enjoyable. Whether you're looking for a violin or a viola teacher for your child or for yourself. I highly recommend Sarah be that teacher. : ... Show More
