Customer Testimonials
The shows
I love that the kids are immersed into group practices, leading up to on stage performance, right from the start. It’s such a huge confidence booster! And grouping kids of all ages together is so awesome because everyone supports each other & more experienced kids mentor the newer ones. There’s no competition, just peer support. So amazing!
I like how their method simultaneously has students learning a new instrument or vocals and playing in a band. This method keeps the kids interested. My child has had great instructors for private lessons and band and has also made many new friends. It has taught stage presence and built confidence. Now, my kid knows songs from different decades and genres, and I find that pretty cool.
Care for the students and customizing the choice of songs to make it interesting for them to want to learn music
Great program, great teachers, awesome performance opportunities, very supportive environment, opportunities to learn multiple instruments, friendly staff. My child has learned a lot at School of Rock and continues to get more and more used to being on stage.
Awesome teachers awesome performances
Our kids have been a part of School of Rock San Jose since they opened 10 years ago. They both have developed confidence in their abilities that will carry them into all they do in their future. They have learned public speaking skills and are confident performing in front of hundreds (or more) people. School of Rock encourages their students to find their own voices, and the students are allowed to experiment with different instruments, finding what they love most. They have fun and make friends. Plus we get to listen to great music. :)
I think it’s great my kiddo has a place outside of school to make friends and interact with adults with a common interest. Everyone knows her name and she has a chance to both be challenged and to feel strong and competent.
Varied, fun, and great for building skills and confidence. And the shows are a blast!!
Everything! Your teachers and staff are incredible. The environment you create for your students is very welcoming. As a parent, I appreciate the concern you have for the safety of both students and staff. Your communication is excellent.
My son loves taking piano at School of Rock. The instructors keep him engaged and he enjoys learning rock music rather than classical.
Teacher and staff are very friendly and helpful. I also like that the program uses helpful technology through the website and app to help learn and practice the curriculum, see my upcoming lesson schedule, grade and submit exercises, get feedback from the teacher, and manage my account. This is much better than traditional private lessons.
I can’t say enough of good things about SOR! Elliot at the front desk is extremly helpful and very patient with answering all of my questions and making changes to the schedule. My son Santino loves going to his Little Wing class with Miss Gina. It’s so nice to see how patient and caring Miss Gina is with her class. You can tell all the students truly enjoy going to her class. I’m excited to see how much Santino progresses as he continues his music journey at SOR!

Love School of Rock! The Adult Program is amazing, excellent staff, and they create a great sense of community.
Pretty good.
It's a great opportunity for kids to develop social and performance skills, in an area as fun as music.
Quality of teachers. Performances and working as a band
The teachers are kind and encouraging and really love what they do. The students feel comfortable and are challenged to take risks.
My daughter has been in School of Rock for years now and she has really excelled at her instrument. I like that she gets to play with others to create music. I highly recommend this school for your child.
Caring teachers - flexible rescheduling
I like that my child has options as to what instrument he would like to play. The app layout with stuff for him to practice at home is extremely helpful. The staff there seems to be great, my kid looks forward to going there for all of his lessons and practices. When he used to take private guitar lessons elsewhere he dreaded going. We are so lucky to have found School of Rock.
The team is outstanding! I love the way you encourage the kids to try hard things and promote failing as part of learning.
Thank you for all that you do!
This school offers a great variety of programs for all ages and levels allowing the students to grow and explore at their own pace. Individual classes are a great way to focus on improving skills while group classes offer a fun and inclusive environment. The fact that kids get to perform live on stage is Amazing! Awesome teachers! Our son loves SOR in Clark , he is excited for every class and learns something new every time.
Friendly staff, great instruction, fun experience!
Offers diverse genres on musical programs, experienced and knowledgable instructors and musical directors, conducive environment for learning.
The team is easy to work with and the instructors are great! They all understand children and teens and how to work together to keep them engaged.
My kids are actually interested in playing and practicing now. The teachers are cool, engaging, and skilled.
What I like most is how much my daughter enjoys it, and wants to continue with School of Rock. I also like that the entire program
is focused on an end result of live performance. School of Rock also does an excellent job finding venues for the performances.
It allows me to grow as a singer at my pace. I'm very happy with the training and development I've been able to achieve. I have a great vocal coach.
