How it works
We'll get to know you
Answer a 6-question survey that will cover your skill level, goals, genre preferences, and demographics. We ask questions about what you want from your lesson experience to intentionally connect you with teachers who align with your skill level, your musical goals and aspirations, and your budget. This helps us match you with teachers that are right for you.
Explore your teacher matches
We know that it’s overwhelming to scroll through hundreds of qualified teachers who may or may not meet your specific needs as a student, so Forte eliminates that barrier. Read about your highly curated teacher matches, and then schedule a Trial Lesson with as many teachers as you’d like before deciding which is the perfect fit for you for ongoing lessons.
Start taking live music lessons
Once you’ve found the teacher who feels like a perfect match, book lessons with them on your schedule, and then meet them on Forte. With an excellent Forte teacher on the other side of your screen, you’ll have a customized learning experience in each and every online lesson.
Practice with Yousician
With the education from your new teacher, you also have the support of Yousician! Use Yousician in between lessons to practice your skills, keep your knowledge sharp, and stay motivated. Enhance your musical journey with Forte and Yousician!
