Leslie Smile's Company Details
Music Kids was founded to enrich and improve student development by bringing musical instrument education programs into the local school environment. We passionately believe that every child should have the study of a musical instrument as an integral part of their learning experience, right from the start.Our belief is confirmed by research which shows that the study of a musical instrument during a certain period in a child's life (between the ages of 3-7) is the single most powerful way to influence brain development. It has also been shown to enhance verbal ability and mathematical reasoning as well as affect mood and self-esteem. Our Suzuki-inspired teaching method is designed to foster creativity and analytical skill in students as young as 3 years old. By unlocking the innate expressive potential of each child, we play a vital role in their academic development. Music Kids is guided by a very specific philosophy, namely that the exposure to beauty is not a luxury but a human necessity, and that the key to successful music education lies not only in technical excellence but in the ability of teachers to instill and cultivate a love of beautiful music in their students.
