Enter the professional offices through the glass door left of Beckers. Turn left at the top of the stairs. There is easy access from 407, 404 & 401. Many of our dedicated specialist teachers rely on public transit, which is limited in Markham. Our new location is 10 minutes from our previous Market Village location. As schools move further north, be aware that teacher quality diminishes. We appreciate your continued support and hope you will value our teacher'sr expertise.. The mall has ample parking and a McDonalds. Thank you for your support, Peter, Lynn, and teachers at Ware Music.
