She is very positive and gives him lots of good coaching in a way that isn't overwhelming. Because of his lessons here, he had the confidence to sing in his school's talent show, which has further boosted his confidence in general. He also joined a US Music Lessons rockband that has an instructor. A convenient factor is that you can do lessons online if your kid is feeling under the weather or you are out of town. Cody is a very friendly administrator who helps with scheduling and is always pleasant. I highly recommend the team!

This is one stop music class, DRUMS, GUITAR/BASS, PIANO, UKULELE, VIOLIN, and VOICE. They also offer ONLINE LESSONS. I would recommend this place whole heartedly. My heather is awesome.

I was looking for a retirement gift for myself and decided to stop by the Deering showroom to see…read morewhat the banjos and the company was all about. Prior to arriving, I researched their products and history on their website so I would have some idea what I was looking at when I got there. I stopped by unannounced (no appointment) yesterday and was extremely disappointed with what I found. According to the "salesperson" (?) who was talking to another customer, all the banjos in their showroom are factory "scratch and dents" or used! Additionally, they were all filthy; covered in dust, and greasy finger prints all over the metal components. The one Sierra hanging on the wall had a 3" crack running down the back, and several of the Goodtimes had a gap between the neck and the body. Not exactly the image I was expecting. Imagine if you went to a car factory, and all the cars in the showroom had a cracked windshield or chipped paint or flat tires or 50,000 miles on them. Would you be impressed? Would you be inspired to spend hundreds or even thousands of dollars based on what you saw? I certainly was not, and put my wallet away almost immediately. That's your factory showroom, Deering! Only the best of your best should be on display in there! And if you're willing to let those second rate instruments be your "best foot forward", then what are you willing to ship out to retailers? Disappointed, unlikely future customer.

(Free) We were greeted as we walked in by a friendly receptionist who lead us to the showroom where we waited for our tour guide. Carolina was our guides name and was very knowledgeable. She lead us through the factory, stopping at each station explaining every step of how they make their banjos. Questions were welcomed and answered completely. Factory tours are such a great way to see quality products made in the USA, and this tour didn't disappoint!

I attended Bates school of music approximately from 2009-2012 and was taught the piano by Mrs…read more Veronica Kara. This was over 10 years ago but I still play the piano and when I make a mistake, I can hear Mrs. Kara's voice in my head and it makes me laugh! If I attempt to play music that is too difficult, I can hear her in my head saying, " no, no. This piece is too advanced for you" with her accent and everything. Mrs. Kara would never steer me wrong and would tell me if I was not ready for an advanced piano song, she knew what was best. She truly was the best teacher I've ever had and is an inspiration to me. I pray one day I can be great at the piano like she is.

We were looking for a piano teacher for our 5-year-old son and was so glad to find Kyle of Katzhu…read morePiano. Kyle is a young and energetic UCSD grad (woo hoo go Tritons!) who is passionate about music. He makes learning piano fun and exciting for kids. Kyle was very patient and helpful with our son. He took the time to understand our son's learning ability to tailor his first lesson accordingly. He created such a positive and supportive learning environment where my son felt comfortable. He provided clear and concise instructions, so our son was able to follow along. I value Kyle's integrity because he was honest in advising that our son was a bit too young to comprehend piano instructions and might not fully benefit from taking lessons at this time. We appreciated Kyle's honesty and agreed with his professional opinion. We will revisit having him teach our son next year. I highly recommend Kyle to anyone looking for a great piano teacher. Kyle is a talented musician, a patient and helpful teacher, and he makes learning piano fun and exciting for everyone!

If you want your child to learn and enjoy playing piano, I highly recommend Kyle.
