Questions

Common Questions About Our Music Lessons In Matlock.

Is the first lesson really free?

Yes. Thirty minutes with one of our tutors, and you don't pay a penny. It's the easiest way for both of us to find out if it's a good fit.

Can I stay with my child during the free lesson?

Yes. You're welcome to stay in the room with them, if you'd like to.

I've never played anything. Is that a problem?

Not at all. We teach complete beginners, and our tutors start from the very first note and go at your pace.

Are the lessons for children or adults?

Both. We teach children from the age of 5, teenagers and adults, including complete beginners, people working towards grade exams and people getting a band together. If you're not sure your child is ready to start, give us a call and we'll talk it through.

Are lessons one-to-one?

Yes. Lessons are one-to-one with your tutor, and we run some group lessons too.

How much is it after the free lesson?

£18.50 for a 30-minute lesson or £33 for an hour. Same price for every instrument and every tutor.

What do we need to bring?

If you play guitar, bass, ukulele or banjo, please bring your own, unless we have arranged otherwise. For any other instrument there is nothing to bring; we have the instruments. If you have had lessons before, the music you were last working on is useful to bring, though not essential.

What happens after the free lesson?

If you'd like to carry on, lessons are usually once a week at the same time, in term time, on Derbyshire's school term dates. It's £18.50 for 30 minutes or £33 for an hour, and most families pay half a term in advance. There's no obligation to carry on.

When are lessons?

Most lessons are on weekdays after school, between 3pm and 8pm, and there are a few Saturday morning times too. Lessons run in term time, on Derbyshire's school term dates, and as normal on bank holidays. Once you've sent the free lesson form, we'll email you a link to pick a time that suits you.

Where are you?

Unit 12, Lime Tree Business Park, Lime Tree Road, Matlock, Derbyshire DE4 3EJ. Come into the business park, follow the car park round to the right and we're just round the corner. There's loads of parking.

Can I talk to someone before I book?

Of course. Call us on 01629 312 985 (Monday to Friday, 2pm to 8pm) or email music@limetreemusiccentre.co.uk.
