Despite Kirstin running the studio out of her home she is always dressed professionally, her home meticulously cleaned, and on time. Kirstin responds to texts, phone, calls and emails promptly and efficiently often providing more than one suggestion to my questions or schedule issues. I have two children currently working with her and value the individual and personalized approach with each kiddo. She is kind, caring and patient. I always appreciate her willingness to listen to whatever the kids want to discuss with her, even if it if off topic and then gently directs them back to the lesson. We have been very pleased with their progress and look forward to watching the kids flourish under Kirstin's instruction.

She is very soft-spoken and flexible, always communicates in advance, and sends us timely reminders. She respects the parents and makes everyone feel welcome.

My kids are making good progress and more importantly, they love her and the Piano. We highly recommend her.

I had to call again today and was told refunds are taking FIVE WEEKS, then again was told I could not be transferred to a manager. They had no extension to give me of any manager so that when I called back, I could speak directly to one. They had to submit an email asking the manager to call me. Just like happened last week when no manager ever called me. So at this point, I am out $170 for a string base that I've never even laid eyes on let alone had in my possession. They are basically stealing my money. I have worked in retail. I have worked in customer service. I know it does not take five weeks to refund someone's credit card. And it certainly shouldn't take 5-6 phone calls. This is absolutely the worst customer service I have ever come in contact with my 58 years on this planet.
