Rating of the best music schools in Ufa in 2024

Teaching music is a good opportunity for both adults and children to gain new knowledge and broaden their horizons. Musical lessons develop a sense of hearing and rhythm, fine motor skills, teach perseverance, concentration. In addition, classes help to get rid of fears and clamps, allow you to feel confident when you need to speak in public.

Today there are a large number of music schools and courses, both for adults and children. But it is not so easy to choose the right option, because the wrong choice can discourage the desire to make music for a long time. So, how not to be mistaken in your choice.

How to choose a music school?

When choosing an educational institution, you should pay attention to the following points.

1. The type of educational institution is private or public school.

Each of the schools has its own advantage. Private is more expensive, but at the same time it has an individual approach, flexible schedule, material and technical base at a high level. The public school is much cheaper, but classes are held in a group, their time and schedule are approved by the management and cannot be adjusted.

There is an opinion that the quality of education in a private educational institution is much higher than in a municipal one, but this is not always the case. The quality of education directly depends on the personality of the teacher, his own skills and ability to find an approach to the child.

2. Specialization.

Each educational institution has its own strengths and weaknesses. If, for example, a child dreams of becoming a famous pianist, it is worth choosing a school in which the piano class is strong.

3. Entry exams.

For admission, each child will have to pass entrance tests, on the basis of which a decision on admission will be made. Requirements for admission are presented on the official website of schools, basically their list is standard. The child will need to sing an excerpt from any song (it is prepared in advance at home), clap a rhythmic pattern (repeat what the teacher patted). The more famous an educational institution is, the stricter the selection and the more difficult it is to get into it. If a child could not pass the entrance tests, but wants to study music, it is worth trying to pass them in another school, including a private one (there is less competition).

4. Participation in music competitions and competitions.

The higher the level of the educational institution, the greater the number of its pupils are prize winners of the competition. Information about the won competitions is also contained on the official website of the schools.

5. The prestige of the school.

If a child plans to connect his life with music, to enter a music university, it is worth choosing an educational institution whose name is "quoted" on the music market. In this case, the chance to enroll will be higher.

6. Location.

An important stage in choosing an educational institution. If the parents do not have the goal of making the child a professional musician, then it is worth giving preference to an educational institution that is closer to home so that you do not have to spend a lot of time on the road.

7. Training program.

Basically, admission to a music educational institution begins at the age of 7-9, but some educational institutions conduct preparatory classes with children from 3 years old. The sooner the child begins to play music, the easier it will be for him in the future.

8. Child comfort.

It often happens that the school is simply wonderful, the teaching staff is at a high level, but the child is uncomfortable with studying. Perhaps he could not find a common language with the teacher or other children. In this case, several other schools are worth visiting.

9. Choosing the wrong instrument.

Sometimes it happens that parents like a particular musical instrument, and they force the child to learn to play it. At the same time, it may not be fun for the child and the activities will not be beneficial. In this case, it is worth asking him to try classes in different groups in order to find what he really likes.
