At Big Universe Music, we know that music education is more than just technique. Music education is filling the hearts of our students with a love for the art of music, so that you can and reverberate your song across the big universe.
When you become a student of Big Universe Music, you'll be asked a series of questions to pair you with the perfect music teacher for your instrument, musical instrument, and goals.
Once you're paired with your teacher and set up with your lesson time, you'll be walked through how to access your class, curriculum, and how to communicate with your teacher.
You'll meet with your teacher for lessons on the schedule that works best for you and your musical goals.
Big Universe Music specializes in ages 8-18, and has taught 3,000 students online since being founded in 2020.
We've helped students across the world prepare for auditions, score leading roles in musicals, write and record songs, create their own bands, and use music to build confidence and community in their own lives.
Our best advice would be to find a teacher who you enjoy meeting with. The best music teachers are not only experts at their instrument, they are also people who you would consider a great mentor.
The next thing is to make sure that your teacher understands your personal musical goals and is willing and able to work with you as a mentor to help you work toward YOUR desired outcome.
Recently, I've been most proud to see my students become so inspired and confident from their classes that they take that out on their own-- putting bands, recording sessions, and performances together.
A few things worth thinking about before reaching out
Students should consider sharing...
- What inspired them to learn an instrument
- What are their goals and aspirations
- What timeline would you like to achieve those goals
