Why Choose Us?
As a violin teacher, I've noticed a common challenge: while students often advance quickly on their instruments, they tend to fall behind in music theory, which can delay their RCM certification.
Most teachers, myself included, find it difficult to cover theory adequately during lessons due to time constraints. With my background as an RCM Certified teacher and my university education, I have a deep understanding of the exam requirements and know precisely when a student is ready.
This led me, along with my colleagues, to develop a specialized curriculum tailored for each level of RCM's music theory, helping students master their theory material and accelerate their progress.
Our goal is simple: to bridge the gap between practical skills and theoretical knowledge, ensuring students can achieve their RCM certificates without delay.
