She complained that he was too hyper for her. A few days later, we met Ms. Marianna She connected with him right away, saying that he was adorable & brilliant. She used a strength-based approach to nurture his talent, helping him to flourish yeah after year. She later dubbed him one of her most musically inclined students. She was absolutely. GOLDEN!

I am continually in awe of how much my daughter has learned under Miss Kristina's piano teaching…read moreover the years. She started from not knowing how to read or play music at all and now a handful of years later and she is playing so beautifully that, when hearing her play from another room or over the phone, other people will say "Is that really Quinn or do you have the TV or a video playing in the other room?" Her passion for playing has also continued to grow, and despite being a very busy teenager, she never wants to miss a lesson and looks forward to each lesson with enthusiasm. Miss Kristina is patient, flexible and understanding and easy to work with. She's great with kids and adults alike, and a just generally kind person and great teacher. We will be very sad the day Quinn goes off to college and we won't hear her practice or come running in to show us the new piece that she and Miss Kristina have been working on. Can't recommend her enough!

For starters, the windows and posters have seen their days that one might think that it is out of business, but it is in fact not and quite the opposite - tons of space inside! They have a variety of instruments and supplies, including a cleaning swab which I was looking for. And the plus is that they also offer music lessons in private rooms - even same day! I had an initial same-day oboe lesson with Phil, and we had great conversation. However, I have to admit that I didn't learn too much, and that we spent most of the time talking. The person working at the front was pretty chill, but paying for lessons wasn't very clear from the beginning - recommend being more specific with those. Their website is via Tumblr (?) which is a surprise. Lessons were $40 / session, and they recommend one session per week (but how long is a session?). Overall, I wish that there was more clarity on this side from time to payment the moment that we signed up. Parking was fairly easy to find on the street or in the lot in the back. However, do note that parking on the street is via metered parking and not free most hours. Return? Potentially for some music books!

She's picking up the piano keys so quickly, and it's been amazing to watch her growth. Since starting, I've noticed she's become more patient, confident, and attentive - this is exactly what I was hoping for! I also can't say enough great things about Ms. Joyce, her instructor --she's the perfect balance of sweet and firm, which really works for my daughter. She responds so well to that kind of guidance and truly respects her. I highly recommend this school if you're looking for lessons for your child. We're so excited to see how she continues to blossom next year!

Mrs. Molly is an amazing music teacher who is the most patient and kind person we've ever met - our…read morefamily has grown to love her! My 8-year-old son has been taking guitar lessons for 3 years now and the benefits of the Suzuki method goes far beyond music. First, she makes learning guitar so fun that my teenage son decided to join in on the lessons. Second, parents are present at the lessons so if you're like me and have always wanted to learn guitar, it's a lesson for you too! Third, students are gently guided to perform recital pieces on stage in front of fellow students so their confidence level soars by leaps and bounds. In fact, my 2nd grader decided to perform in his school's talent show with such ease because of all the training he's had with Mrs. Molly. We were astonished and grateful! In addition, my boys have learned to read music which has secretly taught them to better understand math, particularly fractions (which has been super helpful in preparing my son for 3rd grade!) They learn a beautiful respect between teacher and student, parent and student, student and student, & student and instrument. They offer additional (optional) workshops, with charitable performances at various locations including retirement homes, and an incredible summer camp that creates a wonderful camaraderie amongst Suzuki families. On top of all the great memories made, their skill level increases significantly with all of these cherished experiences. While these lessons may cost more than others, you will find it to be an invaluable investment that is well worth it. Molly's musical knowledge is vast, her studio is peaceful and welcoming, parking is a breeze, but most importantly, the good character that builds within your child is about the best thing a parent can ask for. Call Mrs. Molly to observe a classical guitar/violin lesson today!

Buying it was a bit stressful, the answer to our questions were hard to come by and we had to carry this big speaker to the car.
