3 Best Music Schools in Rotherham, UK

My daughter Emily first started music lessons with Mr Fox due to an unexpected closure of her previous music lessons. She was only 7 years old when she was faced with a new teacher and she was apprehensive at first. One of her requirements for a new teacher was that they were funny! Along came Mr Fox. Before my daughters’ first lesson Mr Fox discussed what he could offer and I explained how I thought my daughter learnt best. She responds well to praise/recognition for her efforts and wanted it to be fun. Every week Mr Fox is enthusiastic, encouraging but also keeps her on track with moving forward and has the ability to remember personal issues relevant to Emily ie school plays etc. His style of teaching really suits my daughter in that he is fun, asks questions of her understanding in a manner suitable to her age and vocabulary. This provides a deeper knowledge to her skill around the theory rather than just being able to play the notes. I would recommend his teaching style and setup to other parents who have young children wanting to learn to play the piano. She has certainly progressed in a relatively short period of time with lesson once a week and small amounts of practice at home.

James is a brilliant teacher, he is enthusiastic when teaching you to learn all that he knows, and his encouragement really helps you to give your best. James always makes sure you understand what he has explained, that you understand what and how to practise at home and he always listens to your questions with the patience of a saint. I highly recommend him as a teacher!

As a Senior Citizen learning to play my first-ever musical instrument (ukulele), I have found James to be friendly, informative, encouraging and very patient. His love of music is apparent and his enthusiasm is infectious. Lessons are tailor-made to suit students' aspirations or needs – I would recommend him to prospective students of any age.

Two amazing performances from all the children and actors in the WW1 play at Magna. I think all the kids did brilliantly and I'm especially proud of all the children from Milton School who overcame their fears and smashed it! I was there for all the rehearsals and performances to support my son who has Autism and was very anxious about the whole thing but he did it and I'm so proud of his achievements. A very well done to all involved for a very moving story.

My daughter attended the Jazz Brass Band holiday club today. She was made to feel very welcome and had a lovely time. And the band sounded amazing! I can't believe the children learned those songs in just 1 day (well done to all!) She will definitely go again if it's running next school holiday.

Rotherham music is amazing. Whether it's beginner band, concert band or extra opportunities like the jazz collective the good people of Rotherham music are always looking to enthuse young musicians. I would struggle to suggest a better service.
