Shelly is a wonderful piano teacher! My daughter is 8 and only started a couple of months ago. She is progressing quickly and Shelly does a fantastic job of meeting her right where she is - age appropriate, takes time to listen, great at teaching and encouragement! read more

I'm a college student and I always wanted to start singing lessons. This fall I finally reached out to Melody Music Studio, and was connected with Susan for my singing lessons. I'm a beginner and I didn't know anything about singing. But with Susan's instructions and guidance I've been able to improve my singing. Every lesson is fun and stress free, I feel very comfortable singing in-front of her! She is very encouraging and nice. I highly recommend her. read more

My son had a great experience learning guitar with Instructor Greg, I highly recommend him if your son is a beginner and doesn't know where to start from he is the right choice. He has accommodations to come to your house at anytime and te schedule when you are in a rush. We used melody service for 7 months and my son now knows almost all notes and can play simple songs on his own. Is been therapeutic for him to play guitar specially as a teenager. Thank you melody services! read more

For the past 5-6 years I have been dreaming of learning to play the piano. Three months ago I finally looked online to find a teacher near my small town. I came across Melody Music and they connected me with a great teacher and an awesome lesson book. I was so excited to be able to play some basic Christmas songs for family over the holidays. I especially love my teacher, Maria Shull. Not only is she knowledgeable and patient - she is also flexible in our class times (I travel a lot for work) and she comes right to my house! This makes it so easy! I highly recommend Melody Music to anyone looking to find a great teacher! read more

Our piano instructor, Kathi, through Melody Music has been phenomenal. Two of my children have been taking consistent lessons over the last 2 years, and have become proficient piano players. She is patient, kind, and very good at teaching children. I would recommend Kathi or her team to anyone! read more

What a dreadful person Kathi is! She assigned me the instructor who did not show up, wasted many evening waiting for him. I had only three classes with him. We all know that changing instructors is a not good thing, so I've asked her for a refund. Kathi promised to make a refund but she actually never intended to do so. When I call her and ask about it, she just exploded over the phone, calling me a thief. Can you imagine?! Crazy lady! Beware read more

Company does transactions over the phone and has complete access to your card number Melody Music Studios employs people in your area to meet with you for a lesson, she does not live in your area. Great teachers, Not so great owner. I made it clear that I wanted to learn arabesque by debussy, I printed off the sheet music, went to the lesson, we didn't even touch it. Neither Kathi (owner) nor my instructor knew the piece which is arguable one of Debussy most known works along with claire de lune. I told Kathi that I wanted to cancel my lessons after the "trial lesson" via email. In the email she sends after the first lesson she states that you must include the reason why the lesson was bad so she can give you a refund. I responded to her email saying I didn't want to continue because of the cost, leaving out my gripes with the lesson because I thought that would be appropriate. Well, I should have said something went wrong right then and there because she sent me an email that said she charged me for the the lesson that I thought would be a free trial (trial does not = free trial. I admit, I should have seen this coming). I responded with how I thought this was unfair given that this was a trial lesson and gave her the reasons on why the instructor's behavior didn't work with me (inappropriate jokes, low level of proficiency), with no response, I decided to call 5 hours later. She told me I was just trying to get a free lesson and she would not be refunding me, also that she did not believe what I said about her instructor, I told her we could call him right now and verify, but she would not oblige. She didn't want to speak of my transaction, she only wished to tell me how I was wrong for wanting a refund. I ended the conversation how a classless citizen normally would, I cursed her name and hung up. A childish approach to business, but she's facilitating a great environment for learning kids-still gets one star. If you wish to cancel after the first lesson, make sure you tell her that the instructor was awful, takes your card before the lesson so she can still charge you if she wants. She also doesn't know how chargebacks work. Edit: in response to her message, 1. she did not have a conversation with her instructor, Ben is a good Christian man who attended liberty university and would not lie. 2. Ben is just out of college, he does not have decades in perfecting his skill on his instrument, he might have one decade, every time he performed an exercise he made a mistake at least once. I've been studying music for 13 years and I know when mistakes are made. Ben is an education major, not a performance major, voice is his primary, piano his secondary. 3. As I said, I was happy with my lesson, Ben was excellent, I didn't think I should have been charged for the so called trial lessons and because I couldn't get a refund for the lesson, I listed the reasons why I should have been refunded. Not to mention we didn't even touch the piece that I made oh so clear that I wanted to learn - so excuse me for the thinking the lesson shouldn't be paid for (sarcasm). 4. Do not tell me what you think is mean, your entire passive aggressive attitude was mean, the fact that you wouldn't believe what I said about Ben was mean, the fact the you said you had a long conversation that said he didn't say anything inappropriate was a LIE, and also mean. NEVER, give your credit card to someone over the phone, you live and you learn. read more

I have been taking guitar lessons from Nick for about a year now and it was been great! He works with my crazy work schedule which is fantastic. He has helped me learn how to play and even started working on reading music not just TAB. It's always fun to learn your favorite songs!! read more

We were happy to have found Melody Music Studios over the summer. Ms. Christine, who teaches piano, is an energetic, encouraging and engaging instructor to young children. Moreover, it was really easy to sign up for lessons. Kathi was very quick to respond to my questions and we were taking lessons before we knew it. I was also told that they offer recitals in the Fall and Spring, which is something I know we'll be looking forward to. read more
