I'm 66 years old and play keyboards and other instruments but I've never really been able to sing…read more I wanted to find out A) did I have a voice that was worth listening to and B) if so, how much effort it would take to train that voice. Timmaris made this easy. She is friendly and welcoming and nonjudgmental. I had no embarrassment singing in front of her. She quickly identify that I do have a good singing voice and identified my range and with her exercises and continued practice I was singing songs. In my case, I have a good ear, and I could tell when I was on pitch and learning to sing on pitch and stay on pitch was probably the most useful skill. As such, I was able to sing happy birthday - a cappella and on pitch - for the first time in my life and it was wonderful. She is an amazing singer in her own right with years of experience that she brings the bear to support her student, I highly recommend her as a patient, experienced, supportive, encouraging and great singing teacher.

My daughter's piano teacher is great. This company however has been a nightmare experience. Over…read morethe past few years it's gotten progressively worse to the point we stopped lessons completely. They charge weeks in advance for the following month, they text, call and email asking the same questions about how many lessons my daughter is taking, has taken, her schedule. But trying to get a response from them was impossible. The first was an email I sent they took a full YEAR and two weeks to reply to. I've asked countless times for a copy of the contract policies, payments etc. I have still never received it. I checked online and cannot find the current address. All emails are bouncing back to me as server rejected. No replies to texts. Their charges have gone up and up with no explanation, charging random dates, sometimes multiple times per month all with zero communication. I emailed to cancel and got a bounce back. Texted, no response. Called, no answer. We had to go to the bank to get charges disputed and payments stopped. I checked and the license number listed on their website isn't actually a business license number. I checked out the Secretary of State and their business license is currently suspended and has been since 2002, shortly after establishment. I will also notify the Dept of Consumer Affairs and BBB. Please BEWARE before you decide on going with this company and definitely before giving them your banking information.
