Learning discipline and accountability are not skills we set out looking for in piano lessons, but have easily been worth the money just for those! Thank you for all you do Ms Samantha.

Both are gifted musicians and talented teachers. Having two locations also makes it convenient for the summer camps that are offered and also if we need to reschedule and get a makeup lesson at the other location. There are also several recitals throughout the year so my son has really learned the performance aspect of being a musician. My son has ADHD and his teachers are able to engage him throughout the lesson. As someone who is experienced in both adolescent development and pedagogy, Orpheus is, in my opinion, the best music school in central Texas.

I enrolled my 6-year old in Charlotte's 88 Key Kickstart program in June 2016 and was immediately…read moreimpressed with Charlotte's teaching method and ability to relate to and engage the students. My daughter was the oldest in the group, and Charlotte immediately recognized her readiness for more advanced content and responded accordingly with extra tasks and piano time so that she would not be bored. The Kickstart program is a great and affordable way to find out if your child is ready for individual lessons - if you aren't sure, just go for it! About six weeks ago, we started private lessons with Charlotte and I am so happy. Each week, Charlotte works with my daughter based on the prior week's lesson and develops new recommendations for the upcoming week's practice. Some days my daughter is more focused and ready to work than others - this doesn't phase Charlotte. She is always prepared with a creative game and clever tools to engage my child. My daughter is not only learning to play, learning proper posture, etc, but I am learning how to teach her. Much of the value of working with Charlotte comes from the guidance she gives parents on how to work with their student. The importance of this cannot be overstated when trying to develop a love for playing piano, since daily practice sessions can sometimes be boring and repetitious for the student as well as frustrating for parents. One of my favorite things about Charlotte is her clear boundaries, which are SO important when working with young children. She has a playful but stern manner when enforcing the rules of her studio, which she does with consistency. My children know what they can and cannot do when at Ms. Charlotte's studio (I often bring my 4 year old to his sister's lessons, so these rules are doubly important). Heads up to conventionally-trained pianists/parents: I am a former piano student myself, but have had no experience with the Suzuki method of teaching. As a result, I feel that it is perhaps more challenging for me to work with my daughter than I expected, since the primary focus is not on conventional methods (reading music is a focus, but secondary at this point), but rather on tapping into a child's natural ability to learn. I recommend that anyone who is also used to traditional methods of teaching have a conversation with Charlotte about the Suzuki Method and read up on it as well. SUPER impressed with Charlotte's Piano Studio and am very excited to continue working with her!

Thank you!* By combining the Suzuki piano method, Music Mind Games and note-reading series, Charlotte teaches students the ability to play by ear, use excellent technique, and read fluently with a theory curriculum that sparks discovery and instills memory through games. These piano lessons aim to inspire a love of learning along with excellence in playing.

As a musician myself, it was very important to me that my son's first music teacher (and a coach) knew how to engage kids, meet him where he was, and bring out the best in him (easier said than done).

Thank to you, we're watched our son fall more in love with music.

She says without a doubt that Stephen at Dolce is her favorite instructor of all those she has had. She enjoys her lessons and he is really good at communicating with her. The only thing I would like to see as an improvement is a good way to motivate her to practice. She has joined the Youth Chamber Orchestra at Dolce and that has helped a lot because there are other kids her age that she plays with and she doesn't want to be embarrassed by not knowing her part. Also, having performances to prepare for helps, but I wish they made a bigger deal about the performances approaching and perhaps had some system of accountability for the kids to work for, even if it was just a little prize. P.S. I save 5 star reviews for very few places, so 4 stars from me is pretty dang awesome!!

Mike's also very careful about matching his tutors with students as these tutors come into the student's home each week -- which makes the experience much more custom and personalized for the child.

Learning Cycle Tutors has a great reputation in my community and track record of providing results for students. In fact, I see them recommended my parents on our HOA's Facebook page often.

He's always on time, really knows his stuff (all adult tutors with degrees), helps my daughter tremendously (she finally started passing STAAR tests!), is easy to talk to, and the billing is a cinch!

The best thing is that they come to my house...so no extra after school driving & I can keep working on my stuff without having to pack everything up and sit in my car waiting. I would definitely give them 10 stars if I could. We're planning on staying with this company for the duration of my daughter's high school career.
