I took piano lessons from Deborah for a little over 5 years and now my child has been taking…read morelessons for about a year an a half. Deborah is extremely professional and talented. I feel she's a bit of a diamond in the rough compared to other piano teachers of her skill level. Her prices are very reasonable considering her level experience. Deborah is extremely dedicated to helping each student reach their maximum potential. I highly recommend lessons from Deborah if you or your child are ready to take piano seriously and are willing to put in the time and effort to succeed.

Kirkpatrick Guitar studio is a wonderful place to purchase a classical guitar…read more We were in search of my daughter next classical guitar - something to move up from her beginner instrument and Kirkpatrick studio came highly recommended from my daughter's guitar teacher. I really appreciate the time and personal service Mike (owner) provided us. We do not have much experience with music instruments and his expertise is exactly what we need. What impresses me most about Mike is his business approach. He asked for our budget for this guitar and he brought out many, many instruments within our budget for my daughter to try. I asked how much the guitars were and he said that he wanted my daughter to try each instrument without knowing price because knowing the price may influence how one feels about an instrument - You know...more expensive something is, the better we think it is :-). This was such a refreshing wonderful approach. We bought a guitar that was within our budget and my daughter absolutely loves. When it's time for my daughter to move up to the next level guitar, we will definitely visit Kirkpatrick Guitar Studio.

He had a few guitars waiting for me when I arrived. Based on my comments on those guitars he pulled out others for me to try. I was given lots of opportunity to play each guitar and he also played them for me so I could hear them. He was very kind throughout the whole process and I ended up buying an outstanding used guitar. (he also had a great selection of new guitars.) After I agreed to purchase the guitar we spent some time talking about the large selection of strings he had available and he help me pick some so that I could try a variety of them out to determine what I like best. He also had a good selection of accessories and books, although it might be best to just purchase those over the phone or the Internet as he really doesn't have a regular store set up for browsing. A bunch of friends have also purchased guitars from him and all have had similarly good experiences. By the way I don't live in Baltimore, and found the drive to the shop very worthwhile.

Worst experience with this music school, both on the knowledge side and service side. The owner…read moreonly cares about the tuition and nothing else. We never saw his performance, even at recital. From our only five month experience, our kid can learn all the songs within couple weeks. After telling him that we decided to leave the school, we were told that we need to pay one more month tuition, and our kid didn't learn one new song. We then figured out he purposely cancelled our last lesson, which means we paid the whole last month tuition only with three weeks of class. I decided to write this review because I want to share our experience with everyone else. To be honest, I don't how he got voted as the best teacher in Howard County. There are many great piano teachers in our county.

I'm truly glad that I took Tom's class, as he focused immediately and systematically on the basics of photography using a DSLR camera. His experience, thoroughness, and follow-up made for a wonderful learning experience. One of his primary goals was to wean the student from using the "auto" settings regularly and he made me more comfortable in doing so. By scheduling an early morning final class at Fell's Point in Baltimore, he was able to integrate the principles taught earlier into a fun experience and "bring it all together". Would highly recommend! Michael J. Columbia, MD

After playing guitar for more than half my life, I decided at age 30 that I wanted to start taking…read moreup lessons again. I was largely self taught and my playing had become a little sloppy (or just plain lazy) over the years. As an adult student who hadn't taken a lesson since she was 13, however, I was a bit hesitant to enter into the process. After hunting around online awhile, Justin was the first instructor I got into contact with - I was impressed with his credentials and felt that he was someone who could get me out of my comfort zone. I decided to give 29th Century Guitar a go and could not be happier with my decision. From our first conversation and trial lesson Justin immediately put me at ease, and 6 months later (1 hr lessons, once a week) I have noticed a marked improvement in both my playing and my understanding of the instrument. He seems to have an even distribution of younger and adult students, which reflects his aptitude as a teacher and ability to relate to just about anyone. He's very friendly and approachable, and extremely competent. He is also flexible and understanding when it comes to scheduling, and very clear about what his expectations and requirements are as far as lesson commitments and payment policy are concerned. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend anyone to Justin - newbie or stubborn, set-in-her ways singer/songwriter like myself.

Once I started taking lessons with him I discovered that he's not just an awesome guitar player but he really knows how to break down the theory part of guitar that most guitar teachers can't or don't do well. And the technical stuff has vastly improved my guitar skills! His teaching style is very disciplined with an easy going personality. I love that I can suggest exactly what I want to learn and he'll teach me that (and somehow sneakily add in some extra stuff so I come out learning a helluva lot haha) Thanks Justin!

EXCELLENT VALUE FOR EXCELLENT SERVICE…read more I've been taking piano lessons at Young's School of Gospel and Jazz for over a year now, and I have truly enjoyed every lesson. Tim is a very experienced and passionate teacher that focuses his lessons on your personal goals. The first lesson is a free consultation to understand these goals. As a music producer, my piano goals were much different than someone training to be a classical composer. The school has thoroughly met my personal goals and I have met other students that are meeting their different goals. Young's School not only provides fantastic piano lessons, but also life lessons and empowerment. Tim leverages his experience to provide context into having a career in music and promotes real world application of lesson material. Lastly, whenever I leave a lesson from Young's School, I feel challenged, confident, and ready to practice to get to the next level!
