A few words about us
Midwest Music Academy was founded in August of 2008 by our Director, Tom Serb—a guitarist with over 30 years of teaching experience.
In
the short time we’ve been open our philosophy has
attracted international performers and recording
artists to our staff;
and our methods are showing results.
we teach you the way you want to learn
We have programs for students of
all ages: Suzuki method for our younger students,
traditional music education, recreational music
programs, and hybrid programs for those students who
want to play songs quickly, but also want a solid
understanding of music fundamentals.
We offer Private lessons in piano, guitar, violin, flute, trumpet, bass, trombone, tuba, baritone horn, French horn, voice and music theory. We also offer Semi-Private and Group lessons for guitar. For our homeschooled students, retirees and swing shift workers we offer daytime hours by appointment.
