They are very inflexible in the case of missed lessons, no matter if the lesson was cancelled by us or the instructor. After too many "rescheduled" lessons we called to cancel multiple times but they continued to charge us indicating we didn't cancel with their written form even though we hadn't been to the location for over 2 years during a global pandemic.

He made it seem like my basic questions were a major inconvenience. On top of that, they have an old price sheet out for rentals and now charge a lot more. When I asked why they haven't updated pricing he told me that he didn't know and that he wouldn't honor the original price. This guy shouldn't be managing a store. Stay far away from this location.

Aso a Great Music School for Adults!…read more I started taking voice lessons from Jennifer about two years ago. Although I had some music background, I really didn't know anything about singing and she patiently brought me from not knowing chest voice and head voice to being able to confidently sing throughout my entire range. There were times I really struggled with understanding singing and Jennifer was always patient and encouraging. And I get to spend some time each lesson working on singing any song I'd like to work on. That's fun! I play keyboards and guitar in some local bands, and sing backup, and I've gotten a lot of feedback about how much my singing has improved since I started taking lessons from Jennifer. I feel like my lessons with her are my secret weapon for getting really good at singing! I thought that music schools were mainly geared towards children, but the quality of instruction was way more than adequate for learning voice as an adult and helping me with the singing I currently do professionally. I definitely recommend the Schaumburg School of Music in general, and Jennifer in particular, to anyone who wants to learn an instrument or learn or develop their singing voice. Even people who already sing professionally!

Called and talked to Marjorie and she had the audacity to ask me if I'm looking for a free class? No I'm looking for a class I already paid for. Seems like in this place the rules change based on who you're talking to and could be different from one person to another. Just a horrible experience all together. We we looking to purchase more classes for our daughter but based on how Marjorie handled this situation we will take our business somewhere else.
