As an adult who was picking up guitar for the first time I was worried about starting an instrument so late, but he really guided me along the way with a good foundation in music theory as well as different techniques and how to read sheet music as well as tablature! I've come way farther than I imagined I would and love playing the guitar. I don't think you can find a better teacher (no matter your age) than him, or one who's as obviously passionate about teaching music, I highly recommend getting lessons here!

He went above and beyond to assist me after regular business hours even though he knew I was not going to buy anything from his business. I truly appreciate Rick's friendliness, the education he provided me, and his willingness to help me understand more as a newbie. When I'm ready for additional or upgraded equipment, I will definitely seek him out!

The guitar had been resting in its stand for many years without the attention it deserved. So sad. I have recently been inspired to play again and found that it was difficult to keep the guitar in tune. I recalled that when it was setup back in the 90's it resulted in an incredible sound and performance. It's back! Now I can strum my acoustic with great joy! Ha ha!

We will very likely sign up three of our children for lessons at this location (guitar, violin, and piano). I wish there were reviews on yelp for how the instructors are, so maybe I can update this review after we have tried it out.

My kid went to Do Re Mi academy for piano lessons in small group setting in 2019. I think the…read moreschool does a very good job of providing the fundamentals to the young kids. Most importantly, they know how to encourage the kids to learn. My kid learned a lot during her time there. She even tried herself to play a few advanced pieces for recitals over the years. She out grew the school after a couple of years with Ms Leah and Hannah. It's too bad they don't offer 1-1 lessons. I was sad to pull her out for 1-1 lessons now. But, I strongly recommend Do Re Mi for young beginners!

The way she focuses on growth instead of perfection makes lessons feel so much more comfortable and less stressful than other coaches I've had in the past. She's really a one-stop shop for anything you might be having trouble with in your performance. Her strategies have helped me improve my breath support, helped me fix my tongue placement to get more consistent clear tone, and helped me connect to what I'm singing better so that emoting feels natural instead of forced. She's a great teacher with a ton of passion for what she does, which makes it so easy to want to come back and keep learning! Highly recommended.
