He was very supportive of my singing journey, and I always look forward to our lessons together. While I am not exactly concert ready, I can see drastic improvement in my vocal ability and confidence in my way forward. Highly recommend. He is extremely competent with students new to lessons, as he is very able to convey complex theory or techniques regardless of where my level of knowledge with the topic is at. On multiple occasions he has also helped me game out the direction I want to go with my singing to the point that I believe he would recommend holding off lessons if he didn't think they were worthwhile to me. This is probably an uncommon level of integrity in a difficult business.

Each class is a step forward and we always feel like we've worked hard and have more to work on, and most importantly that we make progress every week.

We're writing our own songs, singing in public venues and excited about the future of our singing 'career' and it's all been because of her support. She's super professional and knowledgeable and answers all my questions honestly and thoughtfully and continues to research and study her field so there's so much to learn from her. At the same time, she's such a kind, welcoming and funny person that we've come to regard her as a wonderful friend too! Love our lessons and will keep coming to her as long as we are able to!

I am amazed how much he has learned, and I have even been able to follow along myself, learning piano through my son (he is better than me though!). Ms Erica is a mom to two young boys herself, and has a teaching background, so she uses incredible techniques and has so much patience with the children. Just the right amount of encouragement and order. I HIGHLY recommend Airshine Music School. We plan to stay with Ms Erica for years to come.

After suffering property damage and parts loss at other shops, Repair Zone first claimed they would…read moreintake my guitars. When the time finally came around they fell through and said "we don't want any of your work". Sounds like a fake shop, most importantly when they said that over the phone they felt the need to reiterate maybe three times instead of ending the call like a normal retailer and shutting the fuck up. What a clown show. Update: Some of the other shops that Repair Zone are scared to be just like, and probably are already, have posted statements which are on Yelp (see American Music Store in Encinitas) that talk about unrelated topics like my cancer treatment and claiming meth use. This has nothing to do with their shit job(s) and continuous inconsistency. Yelp took these down and I took the liberty of posting that for the public as those are direct attacks on me. See photo evidence for the property damage and loss I suffered at that page.
