About the Visionary Zoltán Kodály

“To teach a child an instrument without first giving him preparatory training and without developing singing, reading and dictating to the highest level along with the playing is to build upon sand.” Zoltán Kodály (16 December 1882 – 6 March 1967) was a Hungarian composer, ethnomusicologist, pedagogue, linguist, and philosopher. Today his music education philosophies are practised globally.

Diploma in Music Teacher Training

AMEC provides training for Diploma in Music Teaching courses following the qualifications offered by Musicea Arts and Culture Council. Interested candidates may participate in-class training or online training. No prerequisite qualification is necessary to participate in the Level I certification award. This course is advisable for all educators teaching in preschool, primary school, children with special needs and music.

Me Mom Music Session with Parent & Child

Kodály once famously said, “Music education should begin nine months before the birth of a child.” Modern science proved the benefits of age-specific music and movements in the overall development of babies and toddlers. Me Mom Music sessions introduce you and your baby to the world of music with activities. Provide the best possible start for your child.

Early Childhood Development with Music

Science shows us the importance of music during the early developmental years of a baby, toddler and child. Listening to soothing music uplifts the mood of every child. Guess how they'll feel when they participate in musical activities coupled with games and activities. Kodály inspired music education helps their brain, mind and body parts develop faster and better.
