Gabrielle and Jeanette are awesome! I get the joy of bringing my 3 nieces here for lessons every…read moreFriday night and they always look forward to it! My 2 older nieces go to Jeanette (so double kudos to her). They describe her as patient, kind, funny, and encouraging! They both really love the fact that they get prizes for finishing songs in their lesson books! Jeanette always has a bunch of fun and cool prizes that the girls get to take home with! This really encourages the girls to always want to go above and beyond and learn more songs. My youngest niece goes to Gabrielle and she is awesome. I sit in there with her through her lessons and my youngest is super shy so there are a lot of times where she will be silent but Gabrielle always makes her feel comfortable and will accommodate to my youngest and not force her to talk. My youngest describes Gabrielle as patient, nice and funny. She has learned a lot since her lessons with Gabrielle and loves getting stickers and balloons all the time.

When I showed it to Kim, he said it would take a month or two to bring it back to playable condition. He did just that for 1/3 of what I would have paid the renowned luthier. Thank you Kim!

I have been taking our granddaughter (now 4) to the Portland Harmony Road Music school on 82nd Ave…read morefor the last several months. Miss Andrea is a wonderful teacher and keeps these little ones on task while singing, learning all about the piano and most importantly, having fun. Our little one will be playing her first songs this weekend at her first recital. The method used here at Harmony allows little ones to actually learn how to play songs before they can even read or write. She has gained so much confidence and loves to learn and then "teach" her mommy what she has learned. By the time I lose her to full-time kindergarten, she will be reading notes and playing songs with both hands. Amazing!! While the right-hand notes are being solidified, the left-hand notes are also being introduced. Having Fun, Doting Grandma
