My son has been taking drum lessons here for over a year and we couldn’t be happier. He really likes his teacher and together they work on songs that he then gets to perform live at the end-of-semester recitals, such a fun and valuable experience! The school is well run, has a warm, family-oriented vibe, and is filled with great people. Highly recommend!

My son has been going to Miss Leticia's School of Music for the past 10+ years. It's such a great place - so nurturing and fun. As a little boy, my son would attend their summer camp, with different themes each week and ending with an outdoor recital. And during the school year, he'd sign up for various lessons…

Amazing musical experience for my son. So fun to learn and play with a group!

Response from the owner · Edited 2 years ago

Thank you so much for your thoughtful compliments! And I’m so happy that your student is progressing and having a great time here at the school. Being in a rock band is so different than playing on your own! It takes listening, patience and the desire to learn different parts of the song. Your student was great at all three!

She participated in his rock band, and also took one on one lessons with him. They are both wonderful teachers, and the environment is cozy and comfortable. My daughter loves playing guitar, and feels totally supported by her teachers in this environment. Thank you, Miss Leticia Music School! Can’t wait to see what next year brings!

My son has been going to Miss Leticia's School of Music for the past 10+ years. It's such a great place - so nurturing and fun. As a little boy, my son would attend their summer camp, with different themes each week and ending with an outdoor recital. And during the school year, he'd sign up for various lessons ranging from solo instruction to rock band groups. Now, as a 16 year old, he's a great multi-instrumentalist, writes his own music and plays live performances regularly. The school has given him a wonderful foundation. Leticia and Rhys are so kind, easy going and truly great people. Such a gem of a place in Western Mass! Highly recommend!

Miss Leticia's Music School has been an amazing find! It's a great environment for young children, old children, teens, and adults. There's a wonderful feeling of community that encourages everyone to learn, take risks, try out new instruments, and have so much fun playing music together. Our kids have loved the summer camp, year-round rock band, and individual guitar lessons.

It’s been a joy to teach both students! Individually and of different ages and interests, they are lovely!
