Success is a Team Effort.  Private lessons are one on one with an instructor.  However, when you choose to participate in private lessons, you are part of a team that includes the instructor, parent and student.

Group lessons introduce students to the ensemble experience. This means that by nature, students will learn different skill sets that are unique to playing together in a group.  Because of this, it is important that each student be responsible to learn his/her part and attend every lesson for it to be successful.
