Music Lessons That Make Your Life Easier

 

We parents are so busy. How many hours do we spend carting our children around to activities and waiting in the car? We are keeping our other children quiet in the waiting room, we forgot to charge the second iPad and left the snacks on the counter. No time for making dinner, so we pick up take-out on the way home….


 Our music teachers come to you - you are free to make dinner, spend quality time with your other children, clean, hang out… it’s your time to get things off your to do list!

"a great teacher that makes the experience fun for them"

 Our teacher has been great and really made my daughter even more enthusiastic about learning the piano that she already had been. I would recommend these lessons to anyone who wants their child to have a great teacher that makes the experience fun for them. By Rose C.

"GREAT job connecting with our daughter..."

My teacher does a GREAT job connecting with our daughter and helping her both play the piano and sing. We love that she's teaching her the technical aspects (notation) as well as playing by ear. Thank you, Shining Star! By Elliana

These stories aren't rare here at Shining Star, this is our normal. 


Our teaching philosophy is to seek out the spark of joy that each student has in their instrument or music, and dig into that as much as we can. 


I’m Katrina Mendez, and I am the Director and Head Teacher at Shining Star Music Academy. As a parent, I am over-booked (as our my kids), I am tired from driving my children to various activities, I am juggling too many things on my plate. I want more awesome grown ups pouring in my kids, and simple solutions to this. It is from this perspective that I run this company. I want to make your lives easier and bring joy and growth to your children through music. Here is how it works:


First, set up a discovery call with me and let’s talk about your goals and answer any questions you have. I may collect your availability and location to prepare a teacher and schedule for you.


Second, we will set up an evaluation meeting where I get to know your child and give them a short lesson in their instrument. They will leave this meeting with homework, books, and an excitement to get started!


Third, your weekly lessons with your new teacher begin!


So let’s set up that discovery phone call so I can learn about your awesome kid and get you on the schedule!
