Let me say this upfront: contact Amanda if you want to improve your singing. It's hard to imagine…read morefinding a better teacher. I've been singing for most of my life but have fallen off writing and performing in recent years. I decided to get back into it and improve my skills beyond where they'd been before. That's when I reached out to Amanda. I'd had some lessons as a teenager, which helped, even if I probably wasn't ready to take advantage of them, but at a certain point in my twenties, I stagnated and didn't know how to get better. In the past few weeks since taking lessons with Amanda, that's all changed. I've increased my range, improved my breathing, and am learning to project more. Every single lesson has been like a mini-breakthrough. I already feel like I'm singing better than I ever have. I can't believe how fast I've been improving. Amanda has done a great job assessing my existing skills and adapting each lesson to match that. How she explains the mechanics of using your voice as an instrument is understandable and actionable. Lastly, Amanda is an incredibly fun person to be around. Seeing her is already a highlight of my week. I always leave in a fantastic mood, excited to work on my voice over the week so I can come back and learn more.

I began training with Estelle after a few years of being mainly self-taught. I'd reached a point…read morewhere I knew enough to play, but I could not achieve the sound that I wanted. Estelle immediately saw what my issues were - there were multiple problems with my 'hand mechanics' - and she has worked with me for over two years now while i gradually un-learn bad habits and ingrain new ones. Estelle's technical knowledge, her kindness, patience, and deep love of music comes through in every session. Our classes together continue to be enjoyable, extremely productive, and are the highlight of my week. I cannot recommend her too highly.

Prof. Protich is an exceptional classical piano teacher. She teaches not just from her knowledge of…read moremusic and theory, but more importantly from her actual experience of performing music as a concert pianist. She teaches with patience, kindness, and with infectious passion. My daughter has been a student for 4 years now and I have seen her gain in confidence, understanding and appreciation of the music, and ability to play more and more challenging music. She plays Bach, Beethoven, Czerny, and Prokofiev. Prof. Protich teaches, as I've observed in 3 stages. 1st stage would be to learn the text, reading the notes, learning the correct fingering. Next stage is mastery -- fixing the notes, timing, and correct fingering by sight and hand memory. Last stage is expression. Prof. Protich doesn't end at teaching the notes and speed. Her end goal is for the student to play beautiful music and play the classical piece with understanding of the composer's intent. At this stage, she teaches the student the correct phrasing, the various ways of touching the keys to produce the beautiful sound and the colorful expression. Prof. Protich will not only explain, but also patiently demonstrate the right technical and expressive way to play the music. Prior to teaching in the US, Prof. Protich has taught in Europe and Asia, conducting master classes in prestigious universities, and performing in various concert halls, including the Carnegie Concert Hall.

I started with Daniel just over a year ago, and he has helped me access parts of my voice I didn't…read moreknow existed. A few months ago, I literally felt a back room in my voice I had never accessed before. Without fail, either through lack of sleep, dehydration, the weather, yelling, or earlier bad habits, my voice has always found a way to be thrown off-balance. But those worries are now in the past. I've found a rehabilitation center, in the 45-minute weekly lesson, where my voice enters the hands of a vocal surgeon. I enter with a voice tensed up and short on range, and leave with an instrument I can be proud of. On top of all that, It doesn't hurt that Daniel's an all-around great guy, making lessons not only instructive, but enjoyable. 5 Stars. Highly Recommend.

I've been doing Skype lessons all summer with Daniel and have to say that my voice has made a huge…read moreimprovement. I sing with a lot more confidence and have genuinely enjoyed doing my daily exercises, which he sends me in an audio file after each lesson. He's a very good teacher: patient, efficient and has specific, substantive skills to offer. Rather than trying to teach me a specific style, he's helping me get my voice muscles trained up so that I'm more capable of singing in the style that I'm interested in. It's sort of like Physical Therapy for your voice. I've had a lot of music teachers over the years, and I really think Daniel has a strong gift for teaching!

Jeremy is an excellent teacher and mentor! I highly recommend Jeremy. I have taken lessons for…read morethe past eight months which is resulting in a significantly improved understanding of music composition, music theory, and guidance for a practical application of composing. Why I recommend Jeremy: - Lessons are highly organized and prepared ahead of time. - He tailors the lessons to my goals - for me that means customized lesson plans with emphasis on theory and compositional techniques. - He provides a holistic approach to the composition process - during the lesson he leads by example demonstrating the lesson material. He then assigns relevant exercises that are aligned to the specific concept learned during the lesson. - Applied composition - Jeremy makes arrangements for professional players to play student works. I find this very motivational. Composition students get direct feedback from the musician. Also, using his integrated recording studio, he provides a recording of the student's compositions with excellent feedback. - Very Accessible - after the lessons are assigned, if there are questions, he is available to answer questions. - Jeremy is the utmost professional. (Integrity, considerate, timely, holds himself and student accountable). - He follows a well-structured approach to theory and composition. As a structured approach to learning theory, he uses the Berklee College of Music theory materials as a guide. - He has extensive performance and compositional experience. Jeremy draws on this experience to bring a practical approach to composing. - He has vast music academic experience including a MA in Music Composition, as well as a BA from Berklee College of Music. - Excellent environment to take lessons. Jeremy has a professional music studio including a live room where lessons are conducted with grand piano, a control room for recording, and facilities for students (waiting room, restrooms, parking). - He draws from his extensive professional composing and performance experience to bring a practical approach to composition. Highly recommend Jeremy!

I played piano as a child...and 35 years later I decided I wanted to play once again. I wasn't sure…read morewhat to expect from a piano teacher, but when I found Jeremy's Craigslist ad, I was immediately impressed with his resume and professional online presence. I figured someone with that much talent *must* be out of my price range. I was pleasantly surprised, after our initial email exchange, that not only was he affordable, but he was also friendly, and polite. After our initial consult, I felt at ease with him, and knew that with his help, I could once again enjoy playing the piano! Ive been working with Jeremy for a little over a month now, and I totally dig his teaching style. He encouraged me to find sheet music for songs I love and am inspired by. I felt daunted by the first song I picked ("China" by Tori Amos)...but after only one lesson, not only was I able to play a little of it right away, I felt hopeful that I *could* actually learn it. He has a unique way of customizing his lessons and exercises towards my abilities and interests in a way that keeps me motivated to practice throughout the week. A little over a month later, I am able to play the song in its entirety, in a basic version, to fit my skill level. In this short amount of time I have also gained a better knowledge of reading sheet music and understanding Key signatures, tempo, and chords. In summation, I would give Jeremy 10stars if I could...He is a pleasure to work with, has been very generous with his time and attention, and I look forward to my lessons every week!
