The teachers covering Hochelaga-Maisonneuve are trained, gigging musicians with university and conservatory backgrounds who play across Montréal's scenes. Lessons cover technique, reading and ensemble playing, not just beats.
Musiprof reviews each teacher's education and playing experience before they take on students, so families know exactly who is coming to the door.
Our drum teachers serving Hochelaga-Maisonneuve are based just next door in Rosemont and Centre-Sud and travel in for at-home lessons anywhere between Préfontaine, Joliette, Pie-IX and Viau. Families who prefer to travel reach their home studios in a few minutes by métro or car.
Because the teachers cover the quarter rather than one corner of it, scheduling stays flexible — after-school slots near Promenade Ontario and Marché Maisonneuve go first, and evenings or weekends are the easy fallback.
Teachers here work with a lot of first-time drummers: kids building coordination through songs they already know, and adults finally starting the instrument they always wanted. Electronic kits with headphones settle the volume question in HoMa's duplexes and triplexes.
As fundamentals settle, lessons branch into rock, pop, funk and Latin grooves, and students get nudged toward playing with other musicians — the step that turns practice into a habit.
Musiprof is a marketplace of independent, vetted teachers — not a school with one address. You choose how and where you learn:
Learn at your teacher's private studio.
Your teacher travels to you, for a small travel fee.
Live one-on-one video lessons, from anywhere.
Musiprof is a service that connects users to qualified private teachers who teach from their private studio locations or travel to your home in the Hochelaga-Maisonneuve area. Please view individual teacher profiles for their specific teaching locations.
No. The price on a teacher's profile is the full price you pay — no subscriptions, no contact fees. Some teachers who are members of the GMMQ (Quebec Musicians' Guild) include a pension surcharge, but this is always included in the displayed price. You are only charged when a lesson is confirmed by your teacher.
Yes — Musiprof primarily connects you with teachers near you for in-person lessons at home or in studio. Online lessons are also available. Beyond private lessons, we offer a band program and community recitals for a complete musical experience.
The teacher will contact you within 24–48 hours to schedule your first lesson. If there's no contact within that window, Musiprof follows up on your behalf.
You only pay for lessons taken. We refund untaken lessons minus a small cancellation fee (the lesser of $50 or 10% of the remaining value).
By default, lessons are designed to be taken once per week to help you maintain consistency and momentum. A 5-lesson package, for example, is intended to be completed in 5 consecutive weeks. However, we understand that every student's goals are unique. If your teacher agrees, lessons can be scheduled at a different frequency (e.g., every 2 weeks or once per month). Please discuss your preferred schedule with your teacher during your first contact. Your package includes a 30-day grace period after your last scheduled session. If you are doing bi-weekly lessons, ask your teacher to extend your session dates in the system to ensure your file remains active.
Yes! We want you to find the perfect match. If your first session isn't right, contact us within 48 hours. We'll credit 50% of the lesson cost back to your account so you can try a different teacher immediately.
Paying through Musiprof is what keeps you protected — the Satisfaction Guarantee, refunds, and dispute support only apply to payments made on the platform. Paying a teacher directly (cash, e-transfer) voids those protections, and we can't help if something goes wrong. If a teacher ever asks you to pay outside Musiprof, please let us know.
No. Musiprof has no semesters, terms or registration deadlines. You start with a single first lesson, covered by our Satisfaction Guarantee. After that, you continue at your own pace: buy a package of lessons or pay lesson by lesson. Unused lessons are refundable, and you can switch teachers at any time.
No. After your first lesson, you can buy a package (usually a better price per lesson) or pay à la carte, where your card is charged after each completed lesson. Each teacher sets their own prices and lesson formats (in studio, at home or online), so check their profile for the details.
Many of our drum instructors in Montreal also coach our Band Program. When you learn with us, you're not just getting a teacher; you're joining a local network of musicians.
