The studio is always clean and quiet. Occasionally the parking spaces are full, so we end up parking on the opposite street, but usually we are able to find a spot in-front. Prices are very reasonable, and it is so easy to communicate with both Jody (studio owner) as well as Vanessa. The studio offers lessons for several instruments and voice lessons as well, but my daughter has only taken piano so far. My daughter loves her weekly lessons here and her teacher as well!

Ms Belinda is extremely pleasant and patient with kids. She has an unique way of engaging with young kids. After a couple of months, she started training my daughter's ears on music, which is great!

PLEASE READ! Protect your children and keep them away from the owners at Applause Music Academy…read more They recently posted a disturbing picture of my 6 YEAR OLD GRANDDAUGHTER on their social media. It was heavily filtered and made her look OLDER ! They gave her cleavage ! . Her lips are fuller and made to look as if she has make up on. She's half Filipino and half Mexican and the filter also made her look completely Asian. When I contacted the owners through email they took the picture down immediately but did NOT apologize. The next day, my daughter and I met the owners in person through my request and it did not go well. He and his wife Dr. Tig were not apologetic at all. He would not tell me who edited the picture and he would not admit that it was wrong. I asked him point blank 3 times if it was wrong in which he stood silent. I was blown away by his refusal to admit it which made me think that HE was the one who did the editing . He claimed that it was done to clear up the background of the picture which is a total lie. This same picture was posted a few months ago without being changed. Another reason it's false is because there are actually 3 people in the picture and all 3 were made to look more Asian. One person was actually a white male and was completely changed into an Asian woman. He kept saying it was not intentional and he would not apologize. After 25 minutes of the meeting going nowhere, my daughter and I got up to leave in which Dr Tig finally admitted some regret but it was too late because it was like pulling teeth to make them feel sorry for what they or their employee) had done. They did not empathize nor did they realize the seriousness of the picture that was posted. Two days later, my daughter received an email stating that my granddaughters were both being terminated from the academy. It was easier for them to terminate them instead of saying sorry. This is very upsetting about how they handled this situation. They need to take posting children's pictures seriously! Children are precious and should be treated like it! 0 stars for Applause Music Academy

She encourages every student with patience and positivity, making learning music fun and inspiring. You can truly feel how much she cares about her students and their growth. Ms. Victoria, the violin teacher, is wonderful as well -- positive, energetic, patient, and very professional. She creates such a warm and encouraging learning environment for her students. Overall, this academy is a very special place filled with talented teachers who truly teach from the heart.

I have studied with her for over 15 consecutive years, and I could not ask for a better teacher and mentor. With great detailed attention to teaching piano pieces, techniques, ear-training, and theory, Dr. Shen has worked with me to help cultivate my skills as much as possible, and she has even helped me place as a finalist in several piano competitions and festivals, from my early years even to more advanced levels. And as was the case with many other students, I was invited to play in the CM honor recitals every year, and I attribute this significantly to her knowledge, her confidence in me, and her passion as a piano teacher. If you are looking for an experienced, wise, knowledgeable, patient, understanding, and attuned piano teacher, I *wholeheartedly* recommend Dr. Shen!!
