Modern Sounds Music
At Modern Sounds Music, we believe music isn’t just a hobby—it’s a way of life!
We’re all about helping our students unleash their inner rockstar and seeing where their talents take them.
For the younger crowd, rocking out with music lessons means sharper learning abilities, better focus, and killer coordination.
But it’s not just about the notes—music teaches discipline, sparks creativity, and builds confidence that’ll last a lifetime.
For adults, belting out some tunes is a total stress-buster, a mood-lifter, and a way to boost memory. Plus, it’s a great way to meet new people and find your jam.
Let’s Make Some Noise!

At Kumon, we personalise each student’s program, right from the beginning. Students begin study at a level that allows them to build self-confidence from day one, and progress according to their ability rather than their age. Over time, our students develop the study habits, attitude and skills that will allow them to study advanced material confidently and independently.
Kumon has operated in Lane Cove for over 30 years, and is run by local mum (and ex-Kumon Student) Sheryl Lee. We are constantly adjusting our centre to ensure the safety of our students, staff and the local community. Families can study with us in person, online, or via correspondence – choose the system that suits your family best!
Find out more about the Kumon Method of Learning by watching our introductory video (kumonglobal.com/kumon-a-foundation-for-the-future/) or booking an Orientation Meeting directly with Sheryl at [email protected].
