Very positive, welcoming, and full of energy. Watching the kids learn music and explore different instruments is honestly inspiring, and what stands out most is how excited everyone is just to walk through the doors. Adults and kids alike feel at home. The staff is professional, patient, and genuinely passionate about teaching. You can tell they love what they do, and it shows in every lesson.I highly recommend Santee Music Academy to any family looking to introduce their child to music or take their skills to the next level. Fantastic place, fantastic people!

All three of my kids attended Santee music academy (ages 6, 6, & 9) and all of the teachers were…read morewell prepared for each session and kept the lessons engaging. My 6yo son loved his lessons with Joey and I highly recommend him for drums (I'm sure he's excellent at guitar also). He learned a ton in a short amount of time and Joey even played the guitar while my son drummed live at his first recital. Joey was very passionate about teaching and was always excited when my son finally nailed a section of song he had been working on. Santee music academy has great teachers. The only reason we stopped going is because sports with three kids resulted in too many conflicts and our goal was to expose them to music at a young age and then see if they want to come back to it in the future under their own desire.

For many years now my siblings and I have been taking lessons from Evans for guitar, piano,…read moreukulele, and accompanying vocals. Evans is incredibly skilled and versatile in all of these instruments and adapts his teaching style to each of our individual personalities, preferences, and goals. Most of all, Evans embodies a passion for music and for life that is highly contagious, consistently making every lesson fun. While my siblings and I all have separate lesson times, occasionally Evans organizes us into a family band to play for his recitals which take place in public venues, typically restaurants. The opportunity to play for the public further encourages us to hold ourselves to higher standards as competent, professional musicians. In short, if you are looking for a music teacher who is both highly skilled and motivational, Evans is the one for you.

Mr Evans is a wonderful teacher who truly cares about his students achieving there goals in music…read more His knowledge, professionalism, and down to earth personality make him the best choice for you and your families music teacher. He is more then just a teacher, he is a good person who makes learning fun by tailoring each lesson to your needs

My son has been going to Mr. Burd for about 4 or 5 months now and I must say I have been very…read moreimpressed! My son went in with pretty much zero musical knowledge, could barely keep a beat and never had attempted to read a note or even really play any instrument. Hes progressed to a level where I know in a few months more time he should be able to sight read music easily. The lessons are filled with the level of instruction needed and no minutes are wasted. Be sure to leave time everyday to practice at home, because the more you can progress yourself, the more Mr Burd will be able to teach you, I wish my son could give more time to practice, but even at his level of less than an hour per day, you will see improvement over time. One of the best parts about using Mr Burd as an initial piano instructor is his absolute focus on proper technique and hammering in the importance time after time, some young minds need to be told a few times, and he really makes sure you are 100% competent before moving on to the next important thing. So happy we found a local piano teacher with patience and knowledge!

When we started, she was a gifted "play by ear" student, but he has taught her to read music and to understand theory, which is really helping her advance.

And as a working mom of 3 elementary-aged kids, I have really appreciated his willingness to be flexible with our schedule.

I called several music studios and met with the piano teachers; I found that most were too strict and their energy was not a positive one. I found Joyful Music Studio in my neighborhood and called.
