Chip Dee Academy of Music Teaching Method

At Chip Dee Academy of Music – music is a language, a simple method that becomes a state of mind. Chip Dee and his in-structors teach you to “speak music” or how to communicate with the language of music. You’ll start out by learning the building blocks of musical theory and soon you’ll be able to “converse” with other musicians.

At Chip Dee Academy of Music we teach Piano & Keyboard, Guitar, Bass, Drums & Percussion, Vocals, Singing & Songwriting, Trombone, Trumpet, Woodwinds and Violin / Cello lessons, and Rock Band.

Our instructors have over 40 years combined teaching experience in instrumental and vocal instruc-tion. At the Chip Dee Academy of Music, we are all professional musicians who’ve played throughout the U.S. as well as abroad. But more importantly, we are all music educators either pursuing certifica-tion or already certified. We have taught in conventional public/private school settings as well as pre-schools, special needs programs, (we have set up several in various school districts), geriatric centers, developmentally disabled programs for adult and psychiatric centers. At Chip Dee Academy of Music the emphasis is on music as an educational, therapeutic, and performance medium.
