Private Music Lessons
Private music lessons significantly enhance a student's success and enjoyment of a musical instrument. A student's improved level of individual performance translates into greater achievement in school ensembles, increased opportunities through recitals and select groups, and builds self-confidence.
We are excited to continue offering Private Music Lessons with our talented group of musicians from NPS' Fine & Performing Arts Department. Needham Community Education (NCE) will assist you with the registration for Private Music Lessons and support families who need financial assistance. Program Details:Private Music Lessons are offered to students in grades 1 through 12 and taught after school at the Needham Public Schools. Lessons are provided throughout the school year.
