## What is School of Rock Method?

The School of Rock Method is a unique way to learn to play guitar, bass, drums, keys, and music. Students are assigned songs and parts that are tailored to them based on their age, experience, and ability to learn new skills and concepts. Students then work through their parts in weekly private music lessons, and refine the skills and concepts that those songs introduce. The goal of this curriculum is to prepare kids and teens for live performances.

The Method App is built around School of Rock's unique performance-based approach, that allows teachers to assign songs and exercises to their students, and allows students to get automatic feedback to their playing directly within the app.

Parents can also use this app to monitor their child's progress, review their practice history, and view assignments and comments from their School of Rock instructor.

Note: An eligible enrollment at a School of Rock location is required to gain access to this app.

### 2/5 — This app is meh

*2026-07-14, version 5.1.11*

I’m an SOR student, and although it does have some songs and helpful stuff, it only had 1 of 4 songs I was assigned at SOR, so I can’t practice unless I have a sheet of written music to bring home. Overall, it can’t be that hard to fix these problems.

### 1/5 — AHHHHHH

*2026-06-30, version 5.1.11*

Bro. I played brain stew almost perfectly. I tuned my guitar Eb Ab Db whatever, and I got a 44.

### 1/5 — Grading is too harsh

*2026-06-11, version 5.1.11*

I was doing this assignment from my teacher on our lips are sealed from a long time ago and when I was playing the chorus, I had to go through so many attempts and still haven’t gotten it. Please make the grading easier, I need a 90 or more, but I’m stuck on 89.
