Customer Testimonials
School of Rock has a 3-4 month performance program that is second-to-none. The young musicians choose a genre and join that band. Then, they practice for 3-4 months and play out at local establishments to show their skills. I love the fact that these kids have the opportunity to play with different musicians every season. While your child is rehearsing with the performance program, they also take lessons on their chosen instrument with one of the many skilled instrumental teachers on staff.
Also, if your child has the privilege to become a member of House Band, they play all over Monmouth County showcasing their talents while gaining performance experience.
Enrolling our son in School of Rock was the best decision we’ve ever made.
Zack is a great teacher and all the staff are great. The adult program is well-designed to build on previous lessons.
Kids get theory, fun, and note reading all at once.
They are awesome!
My son was afraid of playing in front of people, now he is not. All the instructors are great motivators and talented artist.
Highly recommend your programs to anyone who wants to get out and play! School of Rock will make it happen!
I liked that you mostly pushed them hard. It was tough but it showed them what they could accomplish in a short period of time.
I would have had the piano playing more chords rather than simply following the bass line (at least for my 10 year old) but I think the presumption is that they can’t do it rather than asking.
Overall it was a wonderful experience in accelerated learning and performance - they want to come back.
My son loves going to practice. After going to three different schools for guitar lessons, School of Rock is his favorite.
Better communications for parents leading up to the program start. Also, our kids are left handed and it seems the instructor said, “I can’t help you so much because I’m not left handed”. There might be a better way to managed a left handed student.
My kid had lots of fun in a positive, healthy learning environment and he made new friends.
My child enjoys playing there and enjoys the methods of instruction
My daughter had the best experience ever. This is exactly what she needed to bring her out of her shell and meet more kids who love music the way she does.
The staff was incredible.
My child had a great time and learned a lot!
I love everything about the SOR music program! I feel no matter what I say, it wouldn’t do justice to this school, its programs , its staff, etc. My daughter has been a student here for years and it’s all been Positive, Positive, Positive! She’s come so far as a musician and as a person thanks to their amazing instruction, positive reinforcement and how organized the school is. If you’re looking for a music program , please look no further. SOR gives the most bang for your buck, plus your child gets an opportunity to perform at awesome venues each season!
We take one on one voice lessons and my daughter has learned a great deal about pitch and volume and gaining confidence. We love working with Brie
My 10 year old daughter took the Rock 101 summer camp and she had a blast! She loved the instructors and enjoyed being able to try different instruments out.
My 7 yrs old kid had so much fun in the summer camp , he get to experience different instruments in the short time and now he is more into the music .
It is amazing how quickly I was able to learn and play in a band and in front of a crowd. I had my doubts when I started in February but in 3 months I was playing on a stage and able to hold my own.
Plus the instructors are easy to work with and very encouraging.

SOR rocks!
The instructors are very enthusiastic hence the children learn well and stay motivated!
Going to school of rock has made my Grandaughter more confident and she really enjoys her lessons
The team (especially the leadership Jamie Lima and Michael (? apologies I am not sure his name). The responsiveness to communication. The flexibility to accommodate sports or family conflicts. Help getting the electric guitar. My husband's ability to get notes and track in the app. And most importantly, that my daughter loves it and is learning to play.
Great teachers, strong skills learned and a fun social environment for the kids.
A very nice group of staff and kids who really motivate my son. The performances are great opportunities for him to showcase his skills.
Engaging staff
Approachable methodology

Always awesome! Julie, Evan and David are the best! The entire staff is very knowledgeable and cares a lot about the kids. Highly recommend.
The performance programs are really helpful to the participants; these work as confidence booster. Performing in live environment 3-4 times for a kid is great learning phase.
