It's been a huge blessing because Cindy identified some major music reading weaknesses. We realized my daughter was just memorizing her music which created issues as she advanced. Now she's able to quickly read her music and identify her own mistakes. I love that she allows her clients to choose the music they play,too! She also has an awesome reward system that keeps them accountable for how many times they practice. My daughter really loves her and thinks she's "so sweet"! Thank you Cindy!

Susanna is extremely patient and calm, which helps greatly with the younger kids. She is very reliable. We never had any no-shows (unlike the situation we are having with my son's drum teacher). Also, she is very flexible when you need to adjust your schedule. Her pricing is right on target with what I found with other teachers. I recommend her!

My son and I have been attending Music with Mar classes with Julie for the past 7 months. Julie…read moredoes a great job of targeting her audience, with songs and activities for all ages in attendance. She keeps the kids busy, alternating between sitting and standing/moving songs, so no one loses interest. I love that the classes are drop-in and very affordably priced, making it easy to attend or skip as nap schedules dictate. Julie recently ran a music class for my son's first birthday. We had almost 20 kids, ages ranging from 4 months to 8 years. Julie handled the very enthusiastic kids so easily and all the kids had a great time. I would definitely recommend a Music with Mar class as a great option for a birthday party!

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!

I'm writing this review after my son has taken a full year of music lessons and participated in…read morefour music camps. 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). Fortunately, everyone we've met at Dolce has been absolutely fantastic. Our family truly feels blessed to have found this place. A special thanks to Brenda and Jack. Thank to you, we're watched our son fall more in love with music.

My 12 year old daughter has been taking violin lessons since she was 6 and we have moved to several…read moredifferent music studios. 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!!

I leave my weekly lessons feeling encouraged and so happy that I made the choice to start playing.
