    Excellent teacher: patient, creative, and really knowledgeable about Jazz history. Of course, a great musician.

    This is a review not for Tim's teaching but for Tim's performance. I hired Tim for my company event and his performance was exceptional.

    I started taking classes from him when he first started teaching, roughly four years ago.

    Ms. Sammy is an awesome teacher!! She is very nice and patient. My child loves her so much. Ms…read more Sammy keeps tracking how the students perform and how much progress the students make. Ms. Sammy also kindly offered a make-up class for my child as she missed a few classes. Highly recommend Ms. Sammy!

    We have been with exploring music for more than two years. We were originally in the group class…read moreand my daughter really enjoyed the class with Ms Mona. However, class was cancelled without notice and I was recommended to start another class on a different day/time that doesn't work for our schedule. Then I was recommended to start private lessons with Ms Stella because it's more flexible. My husband went with my daughter for the first two lessons. After the first lesson, I was confused why she doesn't have any weekly homework. Then the teacher blamed my daughter who is 7 for not remember the homework and us for not going into the session to get the homework. Then recommended us to sit in the session next time. Then for the second session, my husband sat in but my daughter was distracted with him there and couldn't focus. Then the teacher said it's an issue with my daughter. I told the teacher I'll be there the third time. The third time, she asked me to come in mid way and told me she didn't start teaching my daughter anything yet even tho half the lesson is over. And asked me to sit in to point out everything my daughter isn't doing right. The entire time she had a look of distain and disgust because her hand shape isn't accurate or her fingerling isn't perfect. She said she wouldn't pass any tests. I let her know that I want my daughter to enjoy piano not be a pianist. I don't need her to take tests. And she looked at me and said that's what every parent says but they always want to take tests later. Anyways no words of encouragement in the entire session, no wonder my 7 year old doesn't want to play for her. As a teacher in a private lesson, I expect you to adjust your teaching to the kid since it's a 1:1 session. Why should the kid adjust to your teaching and you can only teach one way despite what level they are?? I contacted their management to request a new teacher and they responded they'll look into it. But zero resolution til 5 days later, at this point I was fed up with their nonsense and requested a refund. Bad teacher and bad management response, all 3 lessons were wasted with zero learnings. Why do I need to pay money for someone to treat my kid this way? Stay away unless you want your kids to professional train as a pianist

    We've been with Ms. Vanessa for piano and Mr. Juan for drums for several years now, and honestly,…read morewe couldn't have asked for better teachers for our son. What started as music lessons has become something our son genuinely looks forward to. They have a great way of connecting with kids, keeping them motivated, and making learning music enjoyable without making it feel like a chore. We've seen a big change in our son over the years -- not just in his playing, but in the confidence he has when performing. The yearly recitals are always a special experience for us. It's amazing to see him walk onto that stage and confidently perform something he has worked on for months. You can tell how much thought and care Ms. Vanessa and Mr. Juan put into getting their students ready. Most importantly, they know our son as a person, not just as a student. They have been there through the ups and downs, celebrated his improvements, and always encouraged him to keep going. At this point, they truly feel like family to us. We are so thankful for everything they've brought into our son's life and would recommend them without hesitation to any parent looking for wonderful music teachers.

    My son is going for more than 2 years for Piano with Vanessa and he loved it. Vanessa is patient…read moreand very good in Piano. I wish we started early with Vanessa than wasting time elsewhere. I will definitely recommend her.
