Teachers confirm that it can take a long time to help a student "recover" from taking an extended break and get back on track, but we understand that sometimes because of summer vacations a break is necessary. We have compiled this list of websites for students who have to take a break but who would like to continue music exploration and learning at home. We look forward to your return!
