ABILITY LEVELS:
We presuppose no previous experience or musical knowledge and specialise in teaching beginners, both adults and children.
APPROACH TO TEACHING:
The Irish Harp Centre & Music School philosophy of teaching is that music is a living language, to be enjoyed and not endured. It is a life skill that we as teachers are privileged to share with our students who we treat as members of our own family in a caring and supportive environment.
EXAMINATIONS:
Some of our students take music examinations but because they want to rather than we as teachers telling them to! The Irish Harp Centre & Music School are proud to be the Limerick Centre for the London College of Music,Thames Valley University. However, the complete range of examining boards are offered.
