ECA stands for Extra Curricular Activities Academy.
No. You pay the admission fee only once, when you enrol. If you join more classes or switch classes later, there is no separate admission fee: one admission fee covers every class ECA offers.
The admission fee must be paid before classes formally start. However, you can take 2 to 3 demo classes before paying the monthly fee.
There is no set answer. It varies from student to student and depends on the individual, their age and how much they practise. With regular practice, a basic level of playing can be reached within a few months. Most of our students learn long term because they enjoy the lessons and want to keep improving.
We recommend a minimum of 15 minutes a day, six days a week. Short practice sessions several times a day work much better than long sessions a few times a week. For young children, practice goes better when a parent supervises.
Yes, we have an open-door policy and you can sit in whenever you like. Some students work better with a parent in the room while others find it distracting, so the teacher will advise you once they know your child.
They can try another instrument at any time; it is better to try something else than to end up disliking music. It does take a few months to reach a basic level, so we suggest giving an instrument at least 2 months before switching.
Yes. We don’t require semester minimums: you can enrol month to month or by semester. One month is usually too short to give lessons a fair chance, though, much like going to the gym.
Although we are in one of the country’s prime locations, we have sufficient parking for two-wheelers. We don’t have parking for cars.
We are located at Chabahil, opposite Chabahil (Charumati) Stupa, connected to Chakrapath road, and easy to reach from Boudha, Jorpati, Gaushala and Mitrapark.
