Whether your school wants to start a music programme, or take an established programme to the next level, we help you raise the bar. The eAr Academy is an online music teaching resource that:
Supports and assists your teachers.
Inspires and develops your students.
Improves academic results.
Enhances your school’s reputation.
The eAr Academy is the teachers’ tonic. Created to complement and enhance your teaching. Made for educators, by educators.
With a uniquely holistic approach, and hundreds of hours and pages of teaching and learning resources, it helps you teach music fully, richly, broadly and deeply.
With our interactive backing tracks and exclusive guided practice sessions, lesson time is more engaging and out-of-lesson time more productive.
And with an interface that indulges students’ curiosity and encourages self-directed learning, your role can encompass teacher, facilitator, mentor and muse.
Get access to hundreds of hours of multi-media material, including instructional videos, audio tracks, backing tracks, Shedding Sessions, downloadable notation PDFs, as well as teacher and student workbooks.
You and your students also get a built-in tuner and metronome, a comprehensive musical glossary, notepad, eArmarks to track progress, and a personal inspiration page.
The eAr Academy currently offers courses for six instruments: guitar, piano, drums, electric bass, alto saxophone and trumpet.
With courses at Introductory Level, Level 1 and Level 2, The eAr Academy caters for those just starting and those who are more advanced. You and your students have access to all three levels.
Every course covers a range of genres, including pop, rock, reggae, Latin, jazz, blues and folk.
For students who’re part of a school-wide programme, music has been scientifically shown to benefit them academically, even in other subjects. For those who choose music as a subject, The eAr Academy complements their learning exceptionally, and gets their grades into the groove.
Both ways, The eAr Academy enhances your school’s offering, takes a load off your teachers, pleases your parents and delights your students.
“I like the holistic approach… so much attention and thought has gone in. I would recommend this to everyone with a longing to make music.”
Linda Bloemhard
Senior Policy Advisor, Codarts University of the Arts, Rotterdam, The Netherlands
“Material is very high quality, practical, and user friendly. Keeping the idea of music as play rather than work is important, especially as the student progresses into areas that could be intimidating.”
Harold Danko
Pianist and educator, Rochester, USA
"The eAr is entering the market at the very right time - when the whole world of music education is going HYBRID. Until 2022 this was a controversial topic, but at this moment many are going there. If not, you risk being left behind.”
Wouter Turkenburg
Former Director of Jazz Studies, The Royal Conservatoire, The Hague, The Netherlands
“A brilliantly assembled and accessible resource that is comprehensive and adaptive. Immensely useful.”
Simon Purcell
Award-winning educator and jazz pianist; International Chair in Improvisation, Guildhall; Former Head of Jazz, Trinity Laban Conservatoire, London, UK
