At NSM we offer a free introductory lesson to prospective new students. This gives the student, and the parent or guardian of minor students, an opportunity to meet with the instructor and see how he approaches the process of teaching. In an individual lesson environment, it has to be a good fit for everyone in order to work well.

The instructor and the student (and the parent/guardian of a minor) need to be in agreement about how the lessons will be conducted. The free introductory lesson allows all involved a chance to get to know one another.

“Proper musical instruction helps develop many psychological and physiological skills for a student beyond musical applications.

Some of these include problem solving, communication and time management. Music instruction can help open up the doors to a student`s ability for finding knowledge by teaching them that continuing to work on what seems improbable can be accomplished by not giving up.”
