About
Musical Empowerment is a non-profit and student organization at the University of Los Angeles, California. It pairs UCLA students with children in the greater Los Angeles area from primarily low-income families. These UCLA students volunteer to teach free, private music lessons to deserving children enrolled in Musical Empowerment.
The teachers of Musical Empowerment are UCLA students from diverse backgrounds/majors, but all possessing a passion for music and the desire to share that with others.
If accepted into the program as a teacher, you will commit to teaching a child that you are paired with a 40-minute lesson once a week. Lessons occur Monday-Friday virtually on a platform such as Zoom, or in-person at one of our lesson spaces. Please email us at musicalempowerment.ucla@gmail.com if you have any questions or visit us at www.musical-empowerment.org to learn more!
