I have found the perfect piano teacher!! My son started taking lessons when he was about 5 with a…read moretraditional, classical teacher. He progressed very fast but by the end of the year it was a chore for him to play. We eventually stopped taking lessons and I was at a loss. I wanted him to take classes and explore and grow his love for music, but I didn't want to sacrifice form and technique for fun. So what's a parent to do? I wanted it all or nothing. So, we went a couple years with nothing. And then I stumbled across an ad for Jingjing. She asked what we were looking to do in the lessons and told us she could mold the class into what we wanted it to be. My main objective was for him to learn and be challenged, expand his love for the piano, and have fun. I don't have an agenda - there isn't a concert that he needs to know a song for. I just want the lesson to flow and she's happy to accommodate that. However, if I did have an agenda and timeline I wanted to meet, I feel she would accommodate that as well. My son is now 9, is beyond inquisitive, and quite a bit fidgety. None of this seems to faze her. He asks non-stop questions about the strings and mechanics of the piano. She actually opened up the top of the piano to show him the strings and explained what happens between hitting the key and hearing the sound. For my son, this was HUGE! She follows his lead, answers his questions and then, without him even realizing, redirects him back to the lesson. Miraculous! He really enjoys classical music but Jingjing is open to playing whatever style they prefer. On his second class he asked her if she could teach him Moonlight Sonata and she smiled and agreed. There was no doubt or hesitation - just belief that he could. She watches his technique, points out nuances in the music, challenges him, applauds him, encourages him to write his own songs and has him practicing!! I can't possibly explain what a great teacher she is and how perfect she is for my son. Originally submitted a while back by my wife, Carol S., here on Yelp!

Although I might be an outlier, this is worth sharing. My son is young and I have been looking to…read moreengage him in music immediately as activity centers began to open up. I wanted to secure private lessons and his school seemed perfect, offering 20 min privates. I was "yes'd" during the orientation process and explicitly said that I was not interested in anything zoom related or group. Simply targeting 20 min privates and happy to pay. My payment info was taken from me and we attended two group lessons after the main instructor conducted an evaluation on zoom (even though i was told this would be in person) and insisted that my son should be in group. Group was fine- we didn't get much out of this. Following Xmas break, i reviewed my banking statement and saw that i had 2 109 dollar charges in one month (we went to the school twice for 20 min group lessons). Solid mark up! I disputed the charges and had a conversation with the director of the school where she told me that i would not be charged until we re-review my son and find a private option that's not zoom. Since the school went to zoom lessons and because my son is young and won't get much from zoom sessions, we opted to wait out the "covid season." Just saw that I was charged 109 dollars again.. so that's $350 dollars for 2 20 min group music sessions. Lesson learned on my end.. pay as you go is the only option moving forward. I have since disputed all charges with my bank and will re-visit at home privates down the line. I am sure this is a wonderful school for kids who are older and engaged in music but my personal experience as a parent requesting a simple private and consistent unauthorized charges was not ideal .

In addition to private one on one teaching they offer ensemble classes as well. The studio is clean, modern and has a great decor. The whole aura/vibe is laid-back and casual. I really like that Greg the owner stays involved with the teaching and clearly has a passion for what he does. They are very flexible about scheduling and the prices are terrific. I've personally attended other schools and had other teachers, but none delved into theory and the history of whatever music it was you were learning. In addition they offer video recordings of your lesson, meaning you can revisit everything you just learned by popping it into your computer. Greg the owner is an apple lover, but the dvd's work in your pc as well! So if you are looking for lessons I suggest going no place but here.... Keep on rocking! Oh and you're welcome!!!!
