Selecting the Right Teacher

A good foundation is essential to the study of any art or science. It is very important that the beginning student have the best possible teacher, whether you want to learn as a career choice or simply for your own personal enjoyment.

Benefits of studying with a Registered Music Teacher:

Assurance of qualified, knowledgeable instruction.

Opportunities for performance at music festivals, examinations, public recitals, studio recitals, master classes, Canada Music Week celebrations, provincial and national student competitions.

Opportunities for students to receive scholarships, both in practical and theoretical subjects.

Opportunities for advanced students to develop the applied pedagogical knowledge and experience needed to obtain a TEACHER'S ASSOCIATE DIPLOMA.


Points to consider in selecting a music teacher:

  Musical education
  Level of experience
  Personality
  Studio atmosphere
  Type of programme offered

Lessons During School Hours

In accordance with the Private Music Teacher & the School Administration Act, Section 6, (Sub-sec.2.):

..."a child is excused from attendance at school, if he/she is absent from school for the purpose of receiving instruction in music and the period of absence does not exceed one-half day in any week."

ORMTA was instrumental in obtaining this privilege. Parents wishing this privilege for their children are advised to discuss this matter with their children's school teachers and principal.
