Now Enrolling for Our Online Summer Term
Waltons New School of Music
After a successful online Third Term (April-June), we are continuing our online tuition programme for the upcoming Summer Term (July-August) as well. As with the Third Term, all 2020 Summer Term online tuition is offered at specially discounted fees.
Lessons
The 2020 Summer Term is divided into two parts, and students enrolling for private (one-person) or partner (two-person) lessons can enrol for one or both parts:
Part One (5 Weeks) • 30 June – 30 July
Part Two (4 Weeks) • 4 – 27 August
Online tuition is offered in the Summer Term for students of all ages and skill levels, and for many of the instruments and subjects that we regularly teach. See our Online Tuition page for the full list, as well as Summer Term online tuition fees.
