How experienced are your instructors?At SAHM, our instructors are where we shine, and they are the reason we have been able to continue to grow since we opened our doors in 2002. Our instructors have degrees in music from various College/University music programs, and the few who don’t, have impressive resumes as professional musicians. Most importantly, our all have multiple years of teaching experience and understand what it means to be a ‘teacher’ and not just a ‘player. They are patient, talented and fun, and have the tools to explain concepts in a way that is easy for their students to understand. They are passionate musicians who really care about their students and seeing them succeed in their chosen instruments. No two students learn exactly the same way, and at SAHM, we pride ourselves in figuring out the best way to teach each individual student.
