4/4 School of Music in Bothell has exceeded my expectations in more ways than one! I've taken vocal…read morelessons from Katya Kaflov since August this year and I've been so impressed by her ability to make me feel so encouraged yet empowered musically at the same time. The staff at this school is very responsive and kind as well. All the emails I've sent them have been responded to right away with satisfactory results. Thank you for all you've done, Katya and all the staff at 4/4 School of Music!

We are located out of state, but were impressed with her credentials, so decided to try Skype…read morelessons. Her organization, thorough methods and clear homework sheets impressed me very much. She has the student work on theory, ear training, composition as well as learning new pieces and scales. Love her program and would recommend her instruction to anyone who wants to learn well. My son's piano skills have skyrocketed in just 2 months. Skype lessons were much better than I had expected. I was tentative at first because it felt like piano lessons should be live, but we purchased a good quality microphone and set up the laptop so she can see the student. Not only does she coordinate live recitals throughout the year, she holds group classes and professional testing which can be taken at a location near you. Last month, through Skype, we even participated in a special group lesson with her other students! Don't let distance stop you! This is much better than a YouTube video! Personally tailored, and also able to teach ADHD kids.

She makes sure to include music theory, and multiple opportunities to perform and participate in adjudication and also competitions, if students are interested. My child has progressed steadily with her as a teacher and enjoys working with her. I would absolutely recommend her for students of any age.

I chose Mrs. Renny based on those old reviews and photos. At first, things went fine. I used to…read morewait outside during lessons, but one day as I noticed my son was down and even looked sad after lessons, I started sit in at the lesson room. Then I saw when he made mistakes or struggled with new music, Mrs. Renny would sigh, scoff, or speak to him in a frustrated tone. On the day i decided to quit, when my son kept missing the tempo on the new piece he started, I saw her tap him on the forehead in frustration--completely unprofessional behavior. If you do choose her, I strongly recommend staying in the room during lessons to protect your child and observe how she treats your child. We've since switched to new teachers for two quarters now. and we are much happier, with positive experiences in great teaching and support, festivals and well organized recitals.

Ms. Renny truly has a magical way of connecting with students of all walks of life!…read more I have known her as a teacher for many years, and her approach to technique and musicality are second to none. She truly cares for her students and I saw my kids make so much progress with her because she balances discipline and fun. I would recommend her to anyone who wants to really learn music and is willing to put in the time to practice!

It's never too late, or too early. Ms. Kibbe and her staff are unfailingly gracious, gifted at and clearly enjoy teaching music. Ms. Kibbe's sincere interest and delight in teaching is refreshing. She is a gifted musician, inspiring her students with demonstrations of beautiful violin and viola music, good humor and productive instruction. Her knowledge, teaching ability, sincere kindness, patience, insight and interest in each student are only surpassed by her love of children, commitment to their development and her ability to encourage and gift the joy of music. The new offices of Snohomish County Music School are fresh, clean, comfortable, safe, welcoming and conveniently located close to the Everett COSTCO. I am both impressed and very grateful to Snohomish County Music School and especially to Ms. Kibbe for the first of many enriching years of violin. Mark Potampa, M.D.

What a fantastic Piano teacher! I am so happy I found Music Schoolhouse, finally an exceptional all…read morearound Music/piano teacher. Not an old ladies house teaching old school tunes with no advancement, or a fancy place that charges you an arm and a leg for lessons. Mila teaches out of a super cute studio, she is so kind and patient and actually expresses a genuine interest in your learning. I really like that she has an educational university level background in Piano and Music and doesn't just teach you piano songs back to back. (Like the teachers I had growing up). She delves into music theory, history, composition, form, sight reading, ear training etc. it really makes the learning effective and long term. She continuously updates her curriculums to new techniques and keeps up with modern pieces. She even offers educational music group classes for toddlers while also ranging to adult students. She is very organized has great communication, not sure what the other review was talking about, they probably just didn't read her payment setup which is super easy and convenient. She stays up to date with all of her students and will always answer questions about her policies. I have learned so much from Mila, she is an incredible piano teacher.
