We wanted instructor that could teach my sons (5 and 8 at the time) to become the best pianists and…read moremusicians they can be, without hurting their love of music. My older son had outgrown his last (wonderful) school, and we needed someone who was skilled enough to instruct him for years down the road. And of course, because my boys are still children, we needed someone patient and kind. Teacher Marie is that piano teacher. She has the technical chops: studied at the Tchaikovsky College of Music, MA at CSU Long Beach, followed by 15 years of teaching. Just as importantly though, she's kind, engaging and patient while still correcting and teaching my kids with gentle firmness -- she really seems to know and appreciate them as individuals. My wife is the musician in the family, and she also tells me that the curriculum they're working from is an excellent one, and far better than the one she started with. Her studio is a bright airy space surrounded by a garden in a quiet neighborhood. She holds recitals for her students (which we like) and supports her students in achieving music exam certifications (which Marie allows parents to opt out). It's been over a year now, and the boys have grown so much in that time with Marie.

Finding the right piano teacher can be stressful for parents and students. The teacher needs to be…read moreknowledgeable, approachable, firm but kind, and a great fit for the student. Our daughter had had several other teachers who were fine but not fantastic. Last year, we were fortunate to come across Joy Han. An acquaintance of ours spoke highly of her, so we contacted Joy to schedule a tryout. From the very beginning, Joy demonstrated care, knowledge, and passion for music that was a great fit for us. She has students with many different ability levels, and our daughter has thrived under her tutelage. Joy makes lessons fun and productive while making sure the kids push themselves to get better. Striking that delicate balance between firm and kind is an art, and Joy is an artist in that regard. If you would like to have your child (or even adult) student succeed in their piano growth, I recommend you contact Joy and see what I mean. She is great.

I have taken lessons from Joy Han for over ten years, and although it has been many years since I…read moreleft for college, I still remember and bask in thankfulness for Ms. Han. Whenever I enjoy and appreciate classical music--especially the piano pieces, I am always reminded of Ms. Han's incredible skills and her passionate heart for teaching us students. She runs with a relentless pursuit of excellence for all of her students. I learned to do my very best in learning theory, practicing at home, and in confidently performing at recitals, competitions and auditions. As for professionalism, Joy Han is the most professional one can be. She is always punctual and very organized. We always have a consistent lesson plan, with a scheduled homework plan. The smaller private setting also provides her the opportunity to build a teacher-student relationship--so she will remember how much progress you made by practicing at home. Ms. Han has also taught two of my younger brothers as well. They too reflect on our past days of piano lessons with Ms. Han and wouldn't have traded the experience with another teacher. We miss you Ms. Han! Thank you for imparting your passion and joy for music onto me, John, and Sam!

He signed up knowing nothing about music, specifically the guitar, and now he can read, understand music theory and compose his own music. He's even decided to minor in music at college. Over the course of the years at Green Octave, he's only had 2 instructors, Teacher Eric initially and Teacher Matt D. for the last 2.5 years. They both were phenomenal instructors and have nurtured his music interest, encouraged him to grow musically and helped with bettering his composition skills. While he never learned the piano, he is able to play chords on the piano--a great accomplishment. The past year has been a challenge with distance learning and Zoom lessons, but it all worked out and the school was even able to hold an Zoom Spring recital for the students. Great job Green Octave and to Director Benny and Exec. Director Nelson!!
