Northwest School of Music - Salem

Signing my daughter up for private vocal lessons with Noah was the best decision I made for her. She was so shy with zero confidence, fast forward to Today she is singing everywhere we go and has the confidence I have always wanted to see in her. I couldn’t thank Noah enough for being so patient and kind with my daughter he is definitely a great teacher and would recommend him to anyone who is interested in music lessons.

My dsugther has been learning music at the school since she was four. The teachers are amazing!! My daughter is leraning piano with Mrs Mallory for a year. She knows my girl so well! It's great to have this music school in town!

Both my kids have lessons here and it's been nothing but a positive experience. They understand that when it comes to teaching music, it's not a one size fits all situation, and worked with my daughter to find a teacher she vibes with. All the staff are friendly and are wonderful to work with.

The teachers here are the most amazing teachers you’ll find anywhere in Oregon. They’re kind, patient, and understand that different kids have different needs and education isn’t one size fits all. 200/5 stars in my opinion

I'm an older, adult guitar student at the school. I've had multiple surgeries on my hands, which have resulted in new difficulties playing my guitar. My guitar teacher, Trevor has been super, helping me adjust my playing to accommodate an adapt to my current limitations. He's also very knowledgeable about music theory and has helped me grow greatly in both my general musical knowledge and in my music arrangement skills.

Joey at the reception desk is always positive, friendly and helpful. Mallory, the owner, is also very approachable, friendly, and helpful. In addition to her teaching, she always has things well orchestrated and running smoothly. I highly recommend the school!

This school is wonderful. The staff are upbeat, kind, and knowledgeable. Teacher Haley is wonderful with our four-year-old. And Teacher Noah has gone above and beyond to engage our special needs first grader. I'm so gratified by the personal investment the staff has made in our kids. I can see how the NW School of Music could take students of any age from beginner to advanced musicianship. I highly recommend!

Super friendly staff and a great environment to learn and grow in! It’s such a darling location with highly trained musicians who teach all levels!

My 10 year old son has been very interested in getting guitar lessons for about a year now, so I finally decided to do some research to find the best music school in the area.

I asked some of his classmates for recommendations, and a few mentioned taking their children for lessons a Northwest School of Music, an that they really liked the instructors there. I read some reviews and went to visit one afternoon before my son got out of school. I spoke with Manny Martinez, the instructor who does the guitar lessons, and I could tell that he loves what he does. He has lots of experience and fantastic credentials and just seemed like a great teacher to learn from.

My son has been going to him since January now. My son has been having a great time and has a real enthusiasm for it. Manny has done a great job in helping him to advance and develop his skills, and my son has been keeping up his end of the bargain (practice!) due in part to his instructors focus on making it really enjoyable. It's great to see my son devoting time to practicing because he loves impressing his instructor with his progress.

Overall, I'm very happy I chose to sign my son up for lessons at the Northwest School of Music. The staff are fantastic, and they really motivate and encourage students. My daughter is interested in learning guitar as well now that her brother is having so much fun with it, and I'll be signing her up in the fall. The lessons are priced well, and the quality of instruction my child receives is worth every penny.

My oldest son has been taking in home piano lessons now for five years and my youngest for two. They love their teacher and have learned an amazing amount about music. My oldest son and I are now also taking a joint guitar lesson and this experience has been fantastic. I would highly recommend the Northwest School of Music to anyone looking for piano or guitar lessons. Great for both kids and adults.

My daughter has been going for voice lessons for about a month and a half now and has shown very big improvement and loves the teacher she works with at NW School of Music. Over all a great place to learn and grow in music of many kinds not just voice. Check it out if you are at all interested in private lessons.

BTW parents are welcome to be in the lesson with their child or there is a nice waiting area as well.

My daughter was starting learning piano here last winter, we had a wonderful experience with teacher Miss Hayley. From learning notes to play songs within ten months, very proud of my daughter and very thankful for all the teachers here teaching my daughter. Also, the school is very nice, I never pay for the piano books my daughter used, and they reward every kids if they practice at home. This is the best music school in salem!

My son is 3 and has been taking private piano lessons with Mrs. Mallory for almost a year now. She is amazing with him and makes the lessons fun and easy. All the staff is very professional and friendly. I highly recommend Northwest School of Music.

Wonderful! My daughter is 3 and absolutely loves her piano lessons with Miss Mallory! She has learned so much in just the few lessons she’s had with her. Highly recommend NW School of Music to anyone looking.
