What our families say about Marsman Music

Real testimonials from our families

We have been serving your community with excellence for almost 15 years! Your music education needs are in good hands with our team. Here is what our customers have to say about us.

The Music for Young Children program with Marsman has made a huge impact on our son. In just a short period of time he has developed his musical abilities, but most importantly to me, he has gained confidence in himself being around others in a structured classroom. Seeing him up on stage for the recital was a very proud moment for me. Every week he looks forward to his class and the staff and teachers always make him feel at home as soon as he walks in the door.

Tykia’s guitar teacher Caitlin is AMAZING. Her ability to teach is remarkable. She taught my daughter to understand and play the guitar in two lessons. Her great attitude and passion for music and teaching shines as bright as her beautiful smile!!! My daughter has nothing but great things to say about her experience and is always happier after her lessons! Thank you Caitlin and Louis for all the great vibes!

Everything is so hard when you start learning at a late age but I’m doing it for the enjoyment only. I look forward to my half hour on Monday afternoons and Chris is very patient with a slow learner.

Month to Month Lessons

Marsman does not require semester minimums for lessons. Every student here is on a month-to-month basis. If you are ready to start, you have nothing to lose as we only want students who truly want to be here and we will not commit you to a long term contract.

Marsman Music gives back - donations and discounts

We give back to the community in the form of donations to community and school events. We support local food banks with annual food donations and local schools including Wm. G. Miller, Charlottetown Public School. We are also proud to partner with community organizations such as the Centennial Community and Recreational Association (CCRA).  We also offer family discounts as we want to make music education as affordable and accessible as we can. Our referral program gives you the opportunity to receive additional lesson discounts and entries into our quarterly prize draw. As a benefit of being a Marsman student, you’ll receive our monthly newsletter which features information about special events, quarterly contests and Marsman member news.

Music recitals twice a year

Every parent just wants to know how their child is doing and if they are really progressing. The best way for a parent to understand if their investment in lessons is really worth it, is to have their child participate in a recital.

Our optional recitals are low-stress and provide a great opportunity to share music with others, and to experience musical progress. In January and June many of our students choose to perform in our biannual recitals. We hold these at the Melville Presbyterian Church within minutes of Marsman.

A comfortable parent's lounge for our clients

For our individual lessons, instead of waiting in a music retail store showroom, our clients enjoy a waiting area with comfortable chairs, kids toys, magazines and free Wi-Fi. We also provide observation windows on every door so that you can watch your child’s lesson while you wait. Or if you prefer you can sit in on their lesson anytime you like.
