A fantastic music school
by Jane
Nov 08, 2012
I am a local English teacher in the Beaverton district and multiple of my students enrolled this fall at Forte Music School. The Forte approach to "literacy" within music amazed me when I first learned of it (reading, writing and speaking/improvising); now I witness its powerful effects firsthand. One of my thirteen-year-old male students struggles in his reading and writing in the academic classroom. However, at Forte, he finds great success in this other, different type of literacy. At Forte, the teachers are not only highly qualified musicians, but are also passionate about kids. I love this new approach to teaching music!
Great options

We were very interested in getting both of the kids into lessons and Forte has so many different options that we were able to get them both into piano lessons. My son is really excited about playing guitar and it's going to be great that we don't have to switch schools when he's ready (a little older) to take guitar lessons.
