Are you ready to rock from the comfort
of your own home? A Queens-based
music school is bringing its renowned
music lessons to students around the
world.
Those interested in learning an instrument
can do so through the School
of Rock Remote program, which allows
students to learn through virtual,
one-on-one classes. School of Rock
Queens, as well as other School of Rock
franchises worldwide, launched the
program in response to the growing
number of shelter-in-place orders due
to COVID-19.
“At School of Rock, the health and
safety of our students is our top priority,
which is why we have rapidly
adapted our operations in order to
meet students’ needs,” said Rob Price,
CEO of School of Rock. “School of Rock
Remote along with our School of Rock
Method App is a fantastic way to provide
continuity and connection. Our
instructors are gigging musicians,
and they have shown their flexibility
to make sure the music goes on.”
Students and instructors will use
video conferencing for the remote
learning classes, coupled with School
of Rock’s MethodApp, SongFirst Approach
and Method Books for a comprehensive
learning experience. The
company offers one-on-one lessons
for students ages 8 and up, including
classes for adults. School of Rock also
offers online group classes for children
ages 5 to 7.
“We are thrilled to offer students
the ability to further their music education
from wherever they are,” said
Tom Vidal, owner of School of Rock
Queens. “School of Rock Remote allows
us to provide the same level of instruction
that we’re known for, but in a way
that prioritizes health and safety.”
School of Rock has also partnered
with Hal Leonard, the world’s largest
print music publisher for performance
and instructional material. Students
in the program will get a free 60-day
pass to SheetMusicDirect.com, giving
them access to virtually every music
genre.

remote program and to sign up for virtual
