TESTIMONIALS
“My daughters found the general knowledge packages extremely easy to follow, and proved to be invaluable tools as they prepared for their exams.”
Alisa, Western Australia
“As a parent I found the general knowledge pieces, or packages, were straightforward. The children found them extremely helpful to learn the different parts of a written piece of music in preparation for their piano exams. Clear descriptions and labelling meant that Thérèse could visualise what each symbol was and what it meant. The annotations were logical and methodical with extended descriptions. We were able to conduct spot tests which meant the learning wasn’t laborious, more like a game. My musical knowledge has improved and the children achieved excellent exam results.”
