Certificate of Merit
The Certificate of Merit program is a graded testing system developed by the Music Teachers Association of California. It is akin to the international testing program of the Royal Academy of music. It requires a 45-60 minute lesson each week and a commitment of diligent practice and completion of theory assignments.
A note from the Director
We are not just teaching music, we are teaching life skills. As the student learns music they are:
-
Becoming aware of their own learning styles, preferences and talents.
-
Challenged to tackle new problems.
-
Given opportunities to stand before others in their performances.
-
Learning a much needed leisure skill for stress reduction
-
Maturing into future musicians, performers, arts professionals, and patrons of the arts.
