About the Registered Music Teachers’ Association
We are a community of experienced, professional and dedicated teachers.
Each of us holds at least one degree or diploma from a University, Conservatory or recognized School of Music.
We like to learn! We continuously seek out and study new teaching material and eagerly pass it on to students.
We are proud of our history! We are affiliates of the Saskatchewan Registered Music Teachers Association and the Canadian Federation of Music Teachers Association. These associations have been active since 1938, and are responsible for the recognition of private music study as high school credits.
