"The Sibelius suite of educational software has revolutionized my music teaching. In particular, Auralia has made ear training much more accessible for students and has enabled me to set out-of-class activities that I was previously unable to do.

"I use Auralia with my entire class via an interactive whiteboard and assign groups of pupils individual tasks.

"Individual pupils can keep detailed personalized records of their progress.

"In my school, Auralia transformed ear training from being a time consuming activity with my entire class to a much more individualized learning experience that is made accessible and enjoyable for all."
