Toronto's premier camps run by University Professors, TDSB Teachers, & extraordinary Musicians! (PhD. DMA). Our Rock Band camp instructor performed for over 10,000 people when his band opened for KISS in Mexico City in 2014. Two of our teachers won a Juno Award. Sign up today & give your children an exceptional educational experience this summer & during the year!
What makes Neighbour Note unique is the teaching faculty. Our teachers are among the highest educated and experienced educators in North America (PhD, DMA, MMus., MEd., MA, BMus., BEd., BA). All music teachers are not created equal. Education matters. Experience matters. Without proper professional guidance and tutelage, it is quite easy to develop bad habits and ultimately become injured. Our camps are not run by high school students or caregivers. We only hire the very best teachers.

What sets Neighbour Note Music Camps & Lessons apart from other music schools is the sheer amount of talent in those who run it. Teachers are highly-experienced educators with years of specialized music training. With Juno nominations, Juilliard scholarships, and Sony Music recording artists, the instructors’ qualifications mean only the best of the best teach at this school. Founder John Force was frustrated by the credibility of other music schools and thus founded Neighbour Note. There’s no reason to be intimidated by this: the family music school’s primary goal is to offer supportive and personalized instruction to players of all skill levels. Using innovative, research-based methods that immerse kids in the magic of music, kids have a literal blast while they learn. The Rock! Band Camps are highly popular with kids forming bands, writing their own songs, doing their own marketing, and of course, rocking out to their own music in front of a live audience.

At Neighbour Note we strive to give your children the best education possible.

Our teaching staff is top notch. Many have completed multiple university degrees (PhD, DMA, MMus., MEd., MA, BMus., BEd., BA). The years of specialized musical training, experience in the field, and desire to drive students to achieve the best is what sets our music school apart from the rest. The reason why so many Torontonians continue to choose Neighbour Note is not just due to the level of skill of our teachers, but the level of care and dedication they willingly provide.
Neighbour Note is unlike any other music school in Canada. It was created after the founder, John Force, became overly frustrated by some of the other music schools’ lack of credibility. Neighbour Note employs highly educated Canadian teachers and real-life rock stars, Juno-award winning and Juno-nominated musicians. Here are some success stories of Neighbour Note teachers:
Dr. Pete Johnston and Dr. Angela Schwarzkopf both won Juno Awards. Elizabeth Rodriquez was nominated for a Juno Award. Dr. Nina Soyfer was awarded the RCM Teacher of Distinction Award in 2019 for best piano teacher in Ontario.
Dr. Kristin Force and Dr. Pete Johnston are currently contract faculty members at TMU (Toronto Metropolitan University) and were partly responsible for establishing the minor degree in music at TMU. Oscar Rangel and Robin Howe are part of the epic heavy metal band Operus who are signed with the Sony Music label.
All music teachers are not created equal. Education matters. Experience matters. Without proper professional guidance and tutelage, it is quite easy to develop bad habits and ultimately become injured. John Force has extensive nerve damage, CTS, and has swollen vocal chords as a direct result of poor instruction from inexperienced uneducated guitar, piano, and singing teachers. Neighbour Note is breaking the cycle of poor music education and guidance by employing only the most exceptional teachers.
Student success is central to Neighbour Note's music school model. The reason why so many Torontonians continue to choose Neighbour Note is not just due to the level of skill of our teachers, but the level of care and dedication they willingly provide. Whether travelling around the GTA for private in-home music lessons, teaching at a camp, or leading a program with hands-on guidance, our instructors take pride in seeing students succeed. The years of specialized musical training, experience in the field, and desire to drive students to achieve the best results is what sets Neighbour Note apart from the rest. Our music teachers in Toronto make all the difference.

"John Force has brought music back into my life. His patient tutelage, sprinkled with humour and fun is just the right combination. He understands the needs of different age groups and he is able to adjust his approach to meet my needs. I highly recommend him to anyone, young or old who wishes to explore the miracle of music. And to have some fun doing it."
Professor Robert Macfadden (guitar student)
Thank you John. You are the best band teacher ever! Have a great summer.
Thank you.
Dear John,
I have learned so much about music, you can't even say how much I've learned. I really enjoyed playing in my first band at your camp and learning about the guitar with a very good teacher. Thank you for being a great teacher.
Sincerely,
Sebastian
