In my experience of almost 8 years now (time really flies), not only Chris but the entire staff has been nothing but friendly and accommodating.

They really are fantastic teachers, and the results speak for themselves. if you are considering Perfect Harmony, I say sign up in a heartbeat. You won't regret it!

I told Ethan what my goals were and by the end of the summer, I was playing the songs I never thought I could. During lessons, Ethan picked up on my taste in music and the need to play songs I like in order to keep motivation alive. He provided a skillful balance of encouragement along with acceptance and patience. He is funny and humble and he listens to your learning style/needs. Its hard learning a new instrument! Everyone endures the period of time where you feel inadequate but Ethan doesnt criticize or doubt your abilities. He meets you at your level. Thank you, Ethan! I am so happy with the guitar skills you have helped me acquire!

I am so thankful that Matt was giving lessons in my neighborhood at the time, and i was able to start taking them. Almost immediately my knowledge of guitar and music theory exploded and i started to understand why things worked they way they did. Now 7+ years later, i am still taking lessons and continuing to learn and learn that there is so much more to learn and am very excited to keep learning all i can from Matt for as long as i can. Not only, am i learning and getting better at actually playing, but having Matt as a teacher has given me the confidence that I actually played guitar and sang to my wife at our wedding in front of 100+ people, which i never would have every thought i would be able to do. Even just played in a jam session with other students of Milwaukie School of Guitar and had a ton of fun. Couldn't recommend more!

Brian is an excellent teacher with a vast knowledge of music theory and techniques. I enjoy the way he tailors the lessons to address the interests of each student.

I'm having so much fun playing now and feel more and more confident in my abilities week by week. If you are interested in learning how to play the ukulele, or are wanting to improve after years of trying to teach yourself from YouTube, I highly recommend you go see Brian at Woodstock Ukulele Studio.

Second, our teacher was clearly very inexperienced and did a poor job of introducing the piano to our 5 year old in a developmentally appropriate way. Finally, they sent me two incorrect invoices and with the third and (at last) correct one, there was a late fee! My impression from this experience is that this company is disorganized and does not offer the level of teaching they're charging for.
