Message from Go Go Allegro’s Director:
Go Go Allegro is a traveling music school offering private music lessons to students of all ages and levels in the comfort of their own homes, or Weston studio, with highly-trained teachers. We believe all students should be given a solid foundation in music and the inspiration to express themselves artistically. We introduce the students to a wide variety of musical styles and allow them to play music of their choice. We want our students to learn the fundamentals and develop a love for music, and we want them to have fun playing and performing, whatever genre of music they choose to play!
Rebecca Helm, Director
The Go Go Allegro Experience
Each week families welcome their Go Go Allegro instructor into their homes. The student is in a familiar space and they are ready to get the most out of their time during the lesson. They are not distracted by packing up and being driven to a lesson and can make the most of their time with the instructor.
In-home lessons provide the best environment for students to succeed musically.
The in-home experience is also terrific for parents. Valuable time isn’t spent in the preparing of students, the driving, the waiting, and the driving back. The parent’s day goes on practically uninterupted.
High quality instruction for all levels. In home convenience. Enjoy the difference.
“The convenience of not having to travel to a lesson is wonderful.”
Go Go Allegro offers Certification Exams from The Royal Conservatory and ABRSM
Go Go Allegro students are talented and deserve to have their hard work recognized. To that end we are offering participation in national exams for music offered by the Royal Conservatory of Music as well as ABRSM.
Both programs offer our students an opportunity to shine and gain recognition. Here are some of the benefits:
- Eligible to win awards from the examining bodies.
- Many high schools recognize these examinations for credit towards graduation.
- Objective feedback and comments which can be valuable in developing the student’s skills.
- Students who participate in examinations tend to become more dedicated to their instrument and practice more often.
- Achievement in certificate examinations is an impressive addition to any résumé. More than just sharing individual’s musical accomplishments, it is indicative of their creativity, a willingness to learn, an ability to set both short and long-term goals, and a commitment to achieving difficult tasks.
Go Go Allegro’s Director, Rebecca Helm, can provide additional detail on participation. Until then, here is some information from the examining bodies themselves.
Our general philosophy at Go Go Allegro is to make lessons as enjoyable and rewarding for the students as possible. We do that by hiring fun, positive, enthusiastic teachers. All of our teachers are music school alumni with various performance and teaching experience.
Each teacher is under contract with Go Go Allegro for a minimum of one school year. Teachers are screened, interviewed, and auditioned to ensure that they are musically proficient and excellent with children. They must share the same general philosophy about teaching and be genuinely kind, patient people. All of our teachers are highly trained conservatory musicians who are not only masters of the instrument they teach, but also genuinely enjoy teaching music!
If you’re looking for fantastic musicians who are passionate about teaching their instrument, you’ve come to the right place!
All teachers must clear the CORI background check in order to teach with Go Go Allegro
