Monster Music is an exciting, fun, relevant and educational in-school music tuition solution
What can Monster Music do for your school and students?
It’s hassle free for schools! There is no admin for you and we take care of scheduling, invoicing and other lesson related logistics (we are very organised!)
Lessons are taught by our talented tutors. We provide the instruments and our custom built curriculum.
We provide heaps of performance opportunities for kids, both in school and in the community, leading to improved student confidence. You might even run into one of your students busking around the city! Give us a shout and we can even organise music events at your school for you.
The Monster Music programme is completely free for your school and lessons are paid for by parents. All we request is that we have a space that we are able to take our lessons from.
"The best parts of having Monster Music in our school are:
- Highly engaged children who love music and love their music teachers
- The range of community events run by Monster Music which enhances our sense of community belonging
- Fantastic systems that streamline “during school time” access to lessons."
WHAT PRINCIPALS SAY
"I have attended many of the concerts and have noticed that every child leaves feeling positive and proud of the progress they are making. This has also given me a chance to notice tutors who are not in our school and can see they also model his positive way of engaging and teaching.
Feedback from parents has been incredibly positive and we feel very fortunate to have Monster Music working in our school."
"Daniel has worked with us to both maximise the number of students he can reach while ensuring his programme is not at all intrusive.
The skill development for young children is remarkable and Daniel and his team ensure the material they use with the children is up to date yet appropriate for the age level."
"Monster Music is a real part of our community and the team is willing to give back with supporting school community events.
We have regular performances at assembly and can call on children to perform at community events at a moment's notice."

He is reliable and nothing is a problem for him, making the process of providing this awesome opportunity for talented tuition in our school stress-free."

A MESSAGE FROM DAN (DIRECTOR)
Hi, I’m Dan, the founder and director of Monster Music. My goal with Monster Music is to give kids all the incredible benefits of learning music - especially building their confidence. I’m truly passionate about making music accessible, enjoyable, and meaningful for young Kiwis. I want to provide schools with a well-organized, hassle-free music program that lets kids learn, perform, and connect in a supportive community.
Music has been a big part of my life since my parents first handed me a guitar at age 6. That love for music grew through high school bands, a Bachelor of Musical Arts, and opportunities to perform both nationally and internationally. Monster Music was born from my love of music and my desire to pass on this lifelong skill to the next generation.
