What we do
We desire to maximize the likelihood that students have music as a part of their lives forever! Whether they go on to become world-famous artists or simply play for their family at home, music is a crucial and transformative form of self-expression. We pride ourselves on maintaining a homey, community-centred atmosphere because we know students learn best when they are comfortable. You will see that we drift from the rigid formality other schools create and opt for a more relaxed, enjoyable environment. Each of our teachers work diligently to meet the unique individual needs of students and personalize lessons for maximum engagement.
We would love to meet you! Please contact us to set up a time to come in, we are unable to accommodate walk in’s at this time. Thank you!

Jessica Towler
Vocal Teacher
Canadian singer songwriter Jessica Towler is making a name for herself with six self released singles under her belt. Using playful pop ballads, this country inspired songwriter blends genres and turns heads. Her greatest musical inspiration is Taylor Swift. From a very young age she was drawn to her vulnerable lyrics and fun melodies and has had a huge influence on the way Jessica writes her own music today. Jessica completed a certificate program at Berklee College of Music to become a more well-rounded musician and is currently working on brand new music with Country Music producer Shawn Moore. Jessica is super excited to work with The Stouffville Music Room and she can not wait to help shape the next generation of musicians!
Teacher Janelle
Preschool Music Teacher
Janelle Marie Serote is a certified Music Rhapsody Teacher, inspired to highlight music’s importance in early childhood education. She is a self-taught vocalist and multi-instrumentalist; ukulele being her specialty. Passionate about exploring creativity, she is currently involved in her high school arts program, iRAP. Janelle believes that everyone is naturally musical, and that it is only a matter of nourishing that ability. Along with her support and spirit, she creates a welcoming environment where a passion for music can sprout and flourish. Janelle sets the basis for musical growth by getting children on their feet and dancing with the beat!
Teacher Valerie
Piano Teacher
Valerie’s passion for music started when she was very young. This passion has led her to play the piano her entire life, taking her into studying the RCM curriculum, in which she is currently at the ARCT level. She has a passion for piano playing, but she also has a passion for singing. So you will be able to hear her sing through the hallways. This passion and musical talent allowed her to graduate from the Queen’s university music program. With all the successes in her life and her passion for music, her main objective in this job is to pour out her passion for music to younger people and to share the same passion she has with others. So her hope is that kids won’t just come in for piano lessons for just learning, but to also have fun and love and enjoy music.
What our community says
Highly energetic, enthusiastic and patient. Kids love it!
My son is 8 years old and is already playing a few songs on the piano after only a few weeks since starting his first piano lessons ever in his life. This system is a phenomenal way to get immersed in music, and then, from that place of loving it, learn the theory more in depth. What I truly appreciate about Moreen is her kindness towards Ezra, her ability to meet him where he is at, for he is 8 after all, and her ability to inspire him, to refocus him, to gently push him towards the blossoming of his talents. Thank you Moreen for all that you do and the ways in which you lift Ezra up through Music to be the best he can be.
My 4 year old absolutely loves the [Music Rhapsody Preschool] program as it engages her through the interactive exercises and use of all the great toys and props!
Stouffville Music Room is a great place for kids to learn a new musical instrument! The classes are well paced and non-competitive. A very caring environment and supportive. We highly recommend them!
Love this place. My son is super comfortable here and his teacher, Kaitlyn is really lovely. The owner Moreen is kind, warm and welcoming. As a family, we support local businesses as much as possible. I couldn’t be happier this place is in our town and if you’re looking for a safe place for your kiddos to learn about music, don’t hesitate to try this out. Thanks again!
I can’t say enough about how pleased we are with Stouffville Music Room and Moreen’s piano lessons. My children are loving their lessons, learning so much and they look forward to attending weekly. Even while we had to do virtual lessons my children loved it and got so much out of it. Progress carried on. Obviously they love being in the studio with Moreen more, but she made it work. We even had a Zoomcital! Amazing effort, communication and dedication. I highly encourage you to register. You won’t regret it.
