I have seen my daughter grow to appreciate music so much so that she plays three different instruments. Since attending the school for a little over 2 1/2 years, she has been more outgoing! She also has improved in school thanks to School of Rock!
They do a great job teaching all aspects of music to young and old alike. My son and niece love going there. They are very supportive and encouraging.
My grandson looks forward to his personal lessons and the band practice each week. It has also contributed heavily to his self-confidence and helped him to build self-esteem. In addition, it has significantly increased his music appreciation.
Playing in the Adult Program band is a great experience and a wonderful way to learn. Plus I have made some great friends.
It's a lot of fun learning to play music and meeting new friends. The instruction is awesome.

It's a great way to get off the couch and learn how to play in a band without being intimidated. Everyone there is awesome. The private lessons keep me on track, the instruction is fantastic and band practice is so much fun. I've improved my playing tremendously since I started.
The teachers are skilled, helped me set and support personal goals, and provided the guidance to play in a band. I practice with passion and look forward to performing weekly. This is THE place to become a musician.
My teacher is great and such a fabulous musician. I cannot think of a better band coach too. He works the band like a conductor of an orchestra and knows exactly what each and every one of us should do and play.
She’s been taking drums at another studio for a few years and this helped her develop technical proficiency but at a certain point it stopped being new and fun. Making music with others has re-energized her.
SOR provides a personal approach with professionals who make learning fun. During these challenging days, SOR has stepped up with new ways to remain connected and continue the learning experience. I highly recommend the school to my friends and anyone who wants to make music.
Great staff especially during this difficult situation. Sean always is there for questions and John works with my daughter and she just loves School of Rock! Great place for kids! :)
My daughter enjoys SOR and has become a better drummer. Playing with others was key in her continued development as a musician and I've seen growth based on her playing in a real band. Also the instruction is very strong and she enjoys (it's fun - not work).

School of Rock is an excellent place to be if you are an aspiring musician! The instructors are talented, knowledgeable, devoted, and patient. Our family has been extremely happy with School of Rock in Seekonk!
There is never a problem with getting my teenage son to practice. He just spontaneously does it and goes above and beyond.m The Performance bands are lots of fun and give the kids to exposure performing in a non-pressure and cool way.
The 1-week camp is a great opportunity for campers to improve their skill and build new skills with different instruments. They have a great time coming together as a band and it's a huge confidence builder with a rocking show in just a few short days.
I am a huge fan of performance-based learning and the way it helps shape young musicians. Pair that with an inclusive environment where kids feel welcomed and free to express themselves and then you'll understand what makes School of Rock an absolute gem!
The group and individual lesson format teaches the kids how to actually cooperate and play in a band, count off, listen to each other, music theory, etc. I also like that School of Rock does not just teach reading sheet music and helps students gain the ability to improvise.
