"The Dance E-Jay programme has offered our pupils the opportunity to create the kind of music they really want to hear. The software has developed their musical understanding and appreciation and they have learnt to evaluate each other's music precisely and skillfully. We have been proud to play the results in assembly, at our school disco and even as part of a church service! Phil Heeley delivers the lessons with an excellent balance of specialist expertise and clear, simple language. The result is that all abilities and ranges of musician can access the work which may then be differentiated by outcome. Phil blends superb teaching skills with a love of his subject which is infectious for pupils and staff alike. Every child's musical ability and understanding of pitch, rhythm and dynamics has developed since we began using Dance E-Jay and I would wholeheartedly recommend the programme and Phil Heeley to schools everywhere."
