I experienced accelerated growth through the program by Rick Snow. He truly cares about his students. The program structure and direct feedback helped me tremendously.

Guitar Rick! What can I say? My daughter has been taking weekly lessons with Rick for over two…read moreyears now and our experience has been exceptional. She started with zero experience on a guitar and is now occasionally playing live gigs with Rick in restaurants and the like. Rick and his process have been fabulous for our daughter's growth not only on the guitar but as a person. When we started she would have been mortified to get up in front of a restaurant full of people and do anything. Rick has helped her get over that anxiety and find her inner confidence. We would most definitely recommend Rick to anyone who is looking to start learning to play the guitar or anyone who is looking to take their skills to the next level. Rick is a truly genuine and caring person who is wonderful to work with.

My son has been taking piano lessons with Nadine since the days of her instructing students from…read moreher home. She has helped encourage his love for and interest in music. She has been most accommodating to his crazy schedule and always positive in reinforcing his progress. I have recommended friends to her and her colleagues, and all have been most satisfied. My son's new interest in playing the guitar he received from Santa will prompt us from taking lessons from one of Nadine's guitar instructors. Nadine's love of children and passion for music is a winning combination. I highly recommend her and her studio!!!

I have been playing stringed instruments for about 20+ years. I'm self taught and mediocre at best,…read morebut I love to play and find myself "stuck" some times and need some help pushing through challenges that I find. To resolve this, I take lessons from a local instructor for a few weeks. As I have said, I've been doing this for 20+ years. I have also lived in many different cities and states, so I have had a lot of different instructors. With all of that said, I have to say that Chet Makowski is my absolute favorite instructor. He got what I was doing and why. He he showed me that music theory is not as mysterious as so many instructors claim. After four Saturdays, I was able to go back to my band and have my improvement recognized by the other guys. I was able to stay better in key and improvise more smoothly. Chet understands that as an adult I have responsibilities and commitments and sometimes I just don't have time to practice. He doesn't judge, and doesn't admonish. Granted, with the style of classes we had together, there really weren't rigid practice assignments that could be defined. I would recommend Chet very highly. The school is just as comfortable and welcoming. It makes for a great learning environment.

These are true Professionals who have made learning FUN!…read more My son has been a student of Chet for many years..He has learned to play and most important, always looks forward to his next lesson. Chet keeps the learning process fun, my son has learned the chords, theory, etc. that make a good guitarist, but unlike my music education, they would immediately apply the knowledge to a song, something current that he could relate too..This is so very different from going up and down scales and just playing meaningless chords, as was done "back in the day" and probably is still the norm in many places..All that info has stuck with my son and he (as are we) is delighted that he can actually play along with something that he may have on his portable player- from my observation, this technique seems to keep the boredom out of music school and keeps the interest and attention focused..and practicing is no longer dull! My son has also attended their summer music camp, which he really enjoyed!!. All I can say is that my son will be going to college next year, he will take his guitar with him, and he will probably enjoy playing for himself and others. Playing music is something one is able to do for most of their lifetime, it's a great outlet and balance from the day-to-day "stuff". It has had a really positive affect on our son!!!! We thank Chet profusely for this!! As far as I know, various strings, keyboards and drums are offered. There may be other types of instruments as well as voice, as well.. Obviously, we have only the highest recommendation for Harcum Music School!!!

I am so grateful for my caring, supportive, and talented teacher, Lindsay. Without her I would not be at the level I am at today. Every week I look forward to my lessons. Lesson scheduling is very flexible, and it is easy to communicate with my teacher. Also, there are many opportunities for pubic performances. I could not possibly be any happier with my lessons and teacher.

Her ears are just golden, she hears the tiniest thing and can help you through it.

I cannot recommend her highly enough.

Back when I lived in Philadelphia, I started lessons with John. Every other review (they're all…read more5-stars) is right on point. John's method is comprehensive and he explains what the process is every step of the way. It definitely seemed a bit unusual to me at first, because I hadn't heard singers do exercises like his before, but the results were undeniable. The improvement was noticeable right away, but the results only got better with time. It's worth it to stick with it for a long time to get the most out of it. His "voice-building" technique really works on a fundamental level, completely building great technique from the ground up. My projection, dynamics, pitch, breathing, sustain, and overall technique had a dramatic transformation for the better. I also didn't realize just how much it was possible to increase vocal range, but John's method will dramatically increase range. I can now consistently hit notes that I didn't think I was capable of before. I really can't imagine that you'd get these kinds of results from just any old vocal instructor. I did lessons for two years and consistently improved. The only reason I stopped doing lessons with him was because I moved away, otherwise I'd likely have continued for quite awhile. Highly recommended.
