Simple patterns, immediate results. They'll have something that sounds like music within the first session.
11–14
Builder
Structure and layering. Old enough to get serious, young enough to still be surprised by what they can make.
15–18
Producer
Genre exploration, arrangement, creative decisions. This is where it gets serious.

Marc Feldmann
Founder, Homeschool Beats Academy
Marc Feldmann spent three decades in Massachusetts public school classrooms watching what happens when kids are given a reason to care about learning. Music production gave his most disengaged students something real to build.
One of his former students — now a Materials Science Engineering graduate student — told Marc that the critical thinking and communication skills he learned in Marc's classroom directly shaped his research career. That's what happens when a student is truly engaged.
He retired from the classroom and built Homeschool Beats Academy because the kids who learned best were always the ones making something. Homeschoolers deserve the same opportunity.
If your kid is already taking instrument lessons or in a school music program, HBA isn't a replacement — it's a creative outlet that gives those skills real-world context and a place to land.

Questions
Straight Answers.
Does my kid need any music experience?
No. The kit is built from the ground up for complete beginners. The Soundtrap Mini-Course starts from zero and the Beat Templates are designed so your kid can produce something real in their first session — no theory, no instruments, no prior knowledge required.
Do I need to know anything about music to support my kid?
Not at all. The Parent Guide walks you through exactly how to support the process without needing to understand music yourself. That's the whole point — you're the facilitator, Marc's the teacher.
What equipment do we need?
Just a device with a browser and an internet connection. Soundtrap is free and runs on Chromebook, Mac, PC, and iPad. No downloads, no software purchases, no gear required.
Can this count as a homeschool elective?
Yes. The kit includes a Parent Guide specifically designed to help you document music production as a legitimate elective for your homeschool records. Your kid finishes with a portfolio artifact — a real, completed beat — plus a Completion Certificate.
What's the 30-day guarantee?
If your kid doesn't finish their first beat within 30 days, contact us and you'll get every dollar back. No questions asked.
What happens after the kit?
The 90-Day Roadmap inside the kit lays out exactly what comes next. When your family is ready for more structure, HBA offers monthly studio plans starting at $35/month — but there's no pressure and no upsell built into the kit itself.
What if my kid doesn't like it?
That's exactly what the 30-day guarantee covers. If your kid tries it and it's not for them, you get every dollar back. No questions asked. The only risk is that they love it.
How much time does this require each week?
As little as 30–60 minutes a week to start. The 90-Day Roadmap inside the kit gives you a clear weekly structure, but it's completely flexible. This is homeschool — you set the pace.
Does my kid need a good computer?
No. Soundtrap runs in any browser on any device — Chromebook, Mac, PC, iPad, even an older laptop. If it can open Chrome, your kid can make beats on it.
When do I get access?
Instantly. The moment your purchase goes through, everything is delivered digitally. No waiting.
