International School of Music, with two locations, in Bethesda and Potomac, is the premier provider of music lessons in all instruments and voice to students of all ages and levels. Their voted best instructors offer a customized lesson approach, so each child can progress at their own pace and learn the music they love to make playing music fun and exciting.

Their teaching methods are student-centered and focused on individual learning styles and personal goals to help each student reach his or her full musical potential. With a flexible Musical Ladder curriculum that rewards practicing and achievement, their students get to explore music they are passionate about, whether they play classical, rock, pop, jazz, or folk.

Music lessons teach kids valuable skills that they can carry with them through life. Children practice basic math when they count the rhythm, reading comprehension as they learn how to read music, and creativity as they figure out how to express themselves. Bonus: They also benefit from better concentration, self-discipline, self-expression, and confidence. Even more, all of these skills are mixed in with fun music making
