Above all, our clarinet teachers understand that every student is an individual, with personal musical needs and goals. In particular, we make it a priority to tailor what we teach to meet your individual needs.

Therefore, when you enroll for clarinet lessons, your teacher will ask you what your motivations are to learn clarinet.  Similarly, we’ll set goals to help accomplish whatever musical aspirations you have for yourself or your child. Together, you will develop a plan to achieve your goals! We love beginners, so even if you don’t know where to start, we can help!

Without doubt, we teach a wide range of styles from rock, pop, jazz, country, worship, blues, and classical. As a matter of fact, we combine the important fundamentals with the music YOU want to play. With 20 teachers and counting, at Irvine Academy of Music you are sure to find the best match for YOU.

First and foremost, all of our instructors are highly qualified with music degrees and teaching experience.  Most importantly, they have a passion for teaching.  Being a musician doesn’t automatically make you a teacher–that’s why we search and vet those who are best qualified for mentoring our music students!

More specifically, we are laser focused on acquiring Orange County’s top teaching talent who embody the high values at Irvine Academy of Music. Accordingly, our instructors strive to relate their teaching to each individual student’s learning style. Many of our instructors have gone on performance tours of the USA and Europe and have years of professional performance and teaching experience for example. In addition to their teaching credentials, our teachers have warm personalities, are extremely friendly, and strive to get to know each student and their parent on a personal level. In summary, we search high and low for the BEST teachers, so you don’t have to!

While there is no set answer for how long it takes to learn an instrument, we can say with regular practice, a basic level of playing can be accomplished in a few months.  Secondly, most of our students take lessons on a long-term basis because they want to continuously improve and find the lessons enjoyable.

Of course, even if you don’t have a musical background, you can ask the teacher for advice on how to help your child practice. Similarly, by simply monitoring that they are doing exercises a certain number of times per day, the student will progress. Occasionally, parents will sit in on their child’s music lesson to get an idea of the proper way a song should sound or how the student should be positioning their hands.
