Derrick Lewis and Meri Dolevski-Lewis, a husband and wife team of teachers with 45 years experience between them, have been offering a comprehensive music curriculum that includes both RCM and non-RCM material using technology to enhance student learning, including composition and arranging, for the past ten years. We offer lessons at our Bayview/York Mills location at a church with a Kawai grand piano or at your home in most areas of the 416 area code. We teach students from beginners to ARCT level, from four years old to adults. Our students have earned high marks on RCM exams, have played in ensembles such as the Toronto Youth Wind Orchestra and Toronto Symphony Youth Orchestra, and are accepted in university music programs with large scholarships. Scholarship/work-study programs are available to students who demonstrate financial need.

Every music school teaches kids how to play music — we teach them how to live it. We believe that learning music should be a joyful experience. Our approach to teaching is based on the philosophy of Dr. Shinichi Suzuki: that talent can be taught and every child can learn. Our children begin their musical odyssey as young as age three — first learning to play by ear and by heart. Primary registration is in spring and summer for the fall, but students are accepted throughout the year.

ESM is recognized as one of the oldest and finest Suzuki programs in Canada. Our teachers have extensive training in the Suzuki Method and an average of over 18 years teaching experience. We are a not-for-profit community-based comprehensive music program, nurturing children’s abilities for over 30 years.

The Kingsway Conservatory provides a vibrant and nurturing environment where students can learn, share and explore their creative side. Beautiful facilities, professional faculty and a fantastic breadth of vibrant programs for all ages set the stage for “inspired learning.” Classes for babies, toddlers and tots tap into little ones’ innate sense of rhythm and musicality. Three- to six-year-olds find their inner musicians through Orff/Kodaly/Eurhythmics classes of singing, movement and instrument-play. Exciting ensembles such as the Ukulele/Recorder Ensemble, Kingsway Children’s Choir, Suzuki Strings and GLEE Club offer many tangible benefits plus the exhilaration of making music together. KCM’s private studios are electric with learning including lessons in piano, voice, guitar, strings, winds and drums, from classical to jazz.
