I am a huge fan of the ear training he gives them, this has allowed 3 of my children to learn to play other instruments much more easily! Jim is very particular about students learning to hear the notes and render them accurately on the violin, this teaches them to understand music in a fundamental way.

This "so-called" music school is a disgrace, a waste of students' time and parents' resources. The…read morewhole place is shabby and run down, and one can clearly see that the management was cutting corners to save a dime in everything. Dirty premises, plastic keyboards instead of acoustic pianos, underpaid and underqualified teachers, no performing facility, unprofessional forms and rude staff, most of which are relatives - how could it be even worse? Well, they may have just outdone themselves. Children, otherwise gifted, may have their musical potential ruined by the instruction they receive at this school. Only in the United States - such so-called school would be under criminal investigation in elsewhere. Stay away!

I can't say enough how pleased and grateful we are to Joe for being such an amazing piano teacher…read moreto our son. My husband and I, being professional musicians as well, searched for a long time to find the perfect piano teacher. Our son had a prior piano teacher who, although kind, did not provide our son with the teaching he needed to help him advance, and that former teacher also wasn't invested in getting to know our child. Joe is the exact opposite of all this! Joe is a patient, intelligent teacher, who knows how to challenge his students while still having fun. He truly cares about our son, and indeed, cares for all of the students in his piano studio. I have been able to personally witness this not only during my son's lessons, but also in the group piano lessons and studio recitals that Joe hosts each season. Joe also has a wonderful way of integrating important life lessons while teaching piano, and takes the time to learn about each child so that he knows how best to relate to them and build their confidence. Joe's experience teaching leadership classes in the past to young leaders in training also shines through and enhances his teaching in every piano lesson. Additionally, Joe has a very high level of musical experience and expertise that allows him to teach all student levels, from the very beginner piano player to the advanced high school student or adult pianist. It's been an amazing three years of study with Joe so far, and our son looks forward to many more years of study to come. I highly recommend Manassas Joe's Piano!

Brian is a patient teacher, who makes a real effort to meet the student at his/her ability level, and musical interests.

I've never taken guitar lessons before, and this has been a really great experience. Take lessons with Brian. He is the man! Howie M., Rockville
