I hope to be able to afford her again soon.

She spent about fifteen minutes per student and even asked for our feedback throughout our lessons. She took her time helping us nail the high notes and achieve proper breath control in songs that are harder to sing. The best part, of course, is the performance at the bar. Each week leading up to the bar trip, we were given tips on how to interact with our audience and how to not just sing but how to give a performance. We also get to dine with the owners who are very passionate about their music school. I love it! I'd recommend taking the class, especially if you have anxiety about performing.

So it has all worked out and he is learning a lot. And the front desk staff - WOW. I really don't know how to express how awesome and helpful they are. They truly care about the kids, are very empathetic to kids' and parents' needs and concerns (I honestly do not understand how they have so much patience), always think to message when a makeup spot or better scheduling spot opens up, and are just so genuinely kind, professional and friendly. The service they provide really makes big difference in our experience as parents.
