Unfortunately our time with saxophones, trumpets, and violins didn't go so well. That's alright as not everyone is gifted musically. Yet the staff here is, as they are knowledgeable, along with being kind and polite. A nice group of folks. Located in Twinbrook Shopping Center, it has been here for a long time. It's not huge, but they also sell guitars and other instruments. I trust their knowledge and high quality service. If you want sheet music, they have plenty of books for you. This is a community loved store for good reason! I find them to be a great value, and they've helped a lot of budding or people whom are musicians.

Though not the biggest store, it's a nice spot for a quick resupply of anything you'd need for your instrument. Downside, you can't sell your instruments to them, in which case you'd have to take your instrument to Guitar Center. Point: Yeah this place a lil cool spot

Due to differences from their previous school in both teaching style and curriculum, both children needed additional support in mathematics. We have had such an excellent experience with Tutoring in Fairfax we have continued sessions throughout the summer and now into this next academic year- both students are excelling in their math classes and exhibiting confidence in their skills. For anyone seeking tutoring I would highly recommend Tutoring in Fairfax- the team that runs this organization has been highly responsive and efficient and the girls think the world of their tutor Marvin. The cost of quality tutoring in NoVA is significant but, in this case, I would say you absolutely receive what is promised. They offer both group and individual tutoring and they are truly invested in your satisfaction and in your student's experience.

She has been one of the most influential teachers in my life, and I can honestly say that I would not have gotten in to a top ranked graduate clarinet performance program without her.

I studied with Mrs. Sheridan for over three years and I can honestly say that I have her to thank for much of my musical success. Lessons with her are always entertaining, exciting, insightful, and best of all, enjoyable. I have come across very few music teachers who are able to make lessons consistently engaging and fun while effective and Mrs. Sheridan is certainly one of them. She knows how to train and push you to your full potential while never leaving you feeling discouraged. Her insight on clarinet playing is inspiring and she is able to prepare you for anything (playing for fun, school-band music, chamber playing, gig performances, ensemble auditions, college auditions, etc.). Studying with Mrs. Sheridan always made me feel confident walking into an audition. Under her instruction, I was selected to district band, regional orchestra and all-state band every year. I also had much success with my college audition and application process by being accepted into almost every school I applied to. I have recommended Mrs. Sheridan to several friends over the years and every single one of them has absolutely loved studying with her. I consider Mrs. Sheridan as one of the most influential people in my life and she is greatly responsible for shaping me into the musician I am today. She is an inspiring mentor, fantastic teacher, and a great friend. Even to this day, I still contact her for advice when needed. It's too bad that I can't just have her as a clarinet professor in college!
