A School Is Better Than an Independent Teacher

Over the years we have found that students learn faster and better if the teacher is a good match for them. Some students do better with: a Male teacher, others with a Female. Older or Younger, Stricter or more Laid back, Matter-of-fact or Jovial. With a large faculty we are sure to have a good match for your child. Parents often request a particular personality for the teacher, only to find out their child responds better to another faculty member. At Fort Myers School of Music it’s easy to change instructors (even instruments) down the road.
