My daughter loves attending RSOM. They did a great job of matching her to a teacher that gets her music taste and help her come out of her shell a bit. We always recommend this school to people, looking for music lessons.

My daughter has been with Ms. Nene for about 2 months now. She is so patient.... makes learning piano very fun for a 5 year old. I recommend Ms. Nene to any 5+ year old mom! She has been so wonderful. The school itself is great- very clean, high security, and the ladies in the front always know what's going on. I think this is probably one of the best places for kids to learn any instrument. I hear the instructions for the other instruments, while im waiting outside- and I'm always so impressed by the teachers.

We have been with Rockwall school of music for three months. This is our first time introducing our children to music and both have shown a lot of progress in a very short period of time. We are very happy with the outcome and with the way they teach.

The Rockwall School of Music is awesome! I have 3 kids in it with each learning a different instrument. We have worked with numerous teachers including our permanent teacher and other make-up teachers. We have been very pleased with their knowledge of music theory and the instruments themselves. The owners, Russ and Karen, and all of the office team runs the school with professionalism and is well organized. They are great communicators and always seek for improvements. My kids are learning to much!

My daughter enrolled in a summer morning camp and had a complete blast trying out different instruments and generally familiarizing herself with musical forms. She especially loved the kindness and energy of the teachers, who clearly enjoy music and children. We’d definitely recommend this experience for anyone wishing to have their kiddos in a safe, fun, and educational summer camp.
