What makes M.A.D. School different:

We think creativity without thinking is no better than a blank canvas. Survival of the fittest is an adage of the past. In the now and the near future, it’s about thriving with forward thinking. Many schools lay claim to teaching technical skillsets. But few can hone strategic thinking skills. It’s a world that separates the chaff from the wheat: those who can think strategically and those who can’t. It’s what gets you to the top and there’s a reason why it’s a pyramid top-down. Yes, the world rewards those perched at the top. Now where do you want to be?

Evolve we shall. Stay ahead of the digital game, we will. But it takes so much more to truly thrive.

M.A.D. School does more than impart you the experience, technical skillsets, the know-hows and the blahs blahs that all the other schools can. It teaches you the game-changer: strategic skills.

Think like never before. See insights that are privy to a select few. Discover another dimension. Adapt and adapt fast. Create to change. Change so you can create.

STACCATO!
Courses / Programs
STACCATO! is a music school in Singapore that specializes in teaching classical music to children and adults in fun, creative and unconventional ways. We believe classical music can be enjoyed by all ages and we focus not only on developing music competence in our students but also in creating an enjoyable holistic learning experience by cultivating an appreciation and love for classical music.

At STACCATO!, we believe in learning with passion. We are concerned that many music learners are overly caught up and pressurized to achieve a desired level of music competence and they lose the joy and passion for music. We provide an environment that encourages creativity through improvisation, performance and expression through movement. Our methodology is effective, and at the same time, unconventional in that we design our programs to excite, stimulate and cultivate.

In addition, we recognize the role of parents/caregivers in nurturing the passion of children through participation and appropriate guidance. We design our early childhood programs keeping in mind the need to also educate and equip our parents/caregivers with the ability to guide their children's musical interest and development.

* World Music Program for Adults & Children (6 years and above)
