The Music Academy Piano Division offers pre-piano class, which serves as an
introduction to more formal piano instruction: keyboard instruction in two tracks
for students ages 6 to 18, and instruction for adults. Pre-piano serves as an
introduction to more formal piano instruction. Keyboard instruction for children
begins with pre-staff music and expands to landmark-based intervallic reading.
After the first year of study, most children participate in the Illinois State Music
Teacher's Association curriculum assessment, where they demonstrate skills and
receive certificates and pins for participation.

Strings
The String Division offers private lessons in violin, viola, and cello, with goals of both
providing musical instruction and instilling a love of music and of learning music.
The division believes that all children can learn to their potential when placed in an
environment that includes clear instruction, an involved parent, and regular
opportunities to listen to and perform.
