As soon as my first daughter turned 4years old, she started becoming curious about playing the…read morepiano. My husband and I decided to find a teacher in the Temecula and Murrieta area. We stumbled upon Ms. Karine and Ms. Violet's piano studio. She started in the fall of 2019. Immediately, her growth for music was transparent. There was an improvement in her speech, analytics, critical thinking and confidence. Within 16 months, Ms. Karine and Ms. Violet decided that she is ready to complete her Preparatory A and Preparatory B exam for The Royal Conversatory of Music. The exams were one day apart and she scored a 93. The curriculum included sight reading, scales, chords, intervals, rhythm reading and performing 3 memorized piano pieces. Her teachers exhibited tremendous patience, love and passion for their work. At the moment, my daughter is learning Music Theory from Ms. Karine and technical piano playing from Ms. Violet.
My second daughter started piano classes with Ms. Violet at 3 years old. I am amazed on how she teaches small children, which can be very challenging. Within 4 months, my second daughter learned how to identify notes, define beats in every measure and play in rhythm with both hands. Her body alignment and posture along with her hands and fingers are strongly emphasized during her lessons. She finds pleasure in practicing everyday without being forced to do so. She is always excited to see Ms. Violet for her next lesson.
As a parent who used to take piano lessons as a kid, I can, truly, testify that Ms. Karine and Ms. Violet are different from the rest. They set high expectations for all teachers alike. They modify their methods and teaching style to the student's age, personality and learning abilities.
Overall, We are very blessed for our girls to be under the guidance of Ms. Karine and Ms. Violet. We believe that we "hit the jackpot" knowing that their passion to educate and develop well-rounded pianists will have an everlasting and positive influence in our daughters' lives.
