FAQ

• Do I have to buy a ukulele before the trial lesson?
• No, you can happily play on one of our ukuleles.
• Can I play on one of School Of Rock's instruments during my lessons?
• Yes, you can. But it generally makes more sense for you to play on your own ukulele because you feel more comfortable on it. But you can try our ukuleles any time.
• Do I have to learn to play the guitar before I can play the ukulele?
• No. It doesn't matter which instrument you start with. Just choose the instrument that interests you the most.
• Am I too old to learn to play the ukulele?
• No. It doesn't matter what age you are or what previous knowledge you bring to the lessons, learning an instrument is always worth it. According to scientific studies, playing an instrument and making music is the best activity to keep your mind young.
• Am I musical enough to play the ukulele?
• Basically anyone can learn to play the ukulele. Progress might be made at different rates, but with practice you can achieve a lot.
• Do I have to be able to read sheet music to play the ukulele?
• It's not necessary to be able to read sheet music to play the ukulele. But depending on what music you like and what level you'd like to get to, it might make sense to learn to read sheet music. You can talk about what is best for you with your teacher.
• Do I have to buy lesson material?
• Generally speaking no, because we have a lot of material readily available for you to use. But it might make sense for you to buy a certain booklet which we don't have here.

Which lesson format suits me?

• How often would you like to have ukulele lessons?
• Quarterly Membership:
  With the Quarterly Membership you have a fixed appointment and attend lessons every week or every two weeks. This membership lasts for at least one whole quarter and is renewed automatically unless you terminate your contract.
  
  10 lessons package:
  You buy 10 lessons that you can attend on an irregular basis. You can choose whether to spread the lessons out over a semester or a year
• How long should one lesson last?
• We generally recommend 60 minute long lessons. Those who have less time can choose between 45 or 30 minute lessons. For those who would like more freedom in the structure of their lessons would be in good hands with 90 minutes.
• Do you want to have lessons alone or with a friend?
• If you take lessons alone, your teacher can fully concentrate on your needs alone. That way you'll quickly make progress.
  
  With two people you can motivate each other and share the joy and fun of music. In addition you'll benefit from cheaper Duo-conditions. You have to organise your partner for the Duo Lessons yourself.
• Which appointment suits you?
• It's important that you have an appointment that works well for you. You're generally able to choose between lessons from Monday to Friday at midday, in the afternoons or evenings. On Saturdays your lessons can take place in the morning or the afternoon.
