We're back!

After a near two-year hiatus due to COVID, we are back in business!

After almost two years, the Wesley Academy resumed private lessons in January of 2022 to a limited capacity. Thirteen students were enrolled in lessons and performed the first juries since December of 2019 after a great semester of learning.

“ We're just glad to be back and able to check in with the students. Two years is a long time to go without being able to mentor and share music with each other." - David Goins

Because of the hiatus, enrollment decreased and communication with the students stopped. Reestablishing connections with the student population is a primary goal of the Wesley Academy during 2022-2023 in hopes that they can meet the needs of the students.

With mentorship and basic needs assessment being part of the goal of the Wesley Academy, having the in-person meetings is a necessity. With proper safety precautions and immunizations, lessons are able to be held in-person and learning and connecting with each other can resume.
