Nice introduction. Diego seems knowledgeable and ready to help me on my journey from classical piano into the Jazz world. I am excited to see where this takes me as an older intermediate student. Thank you Diego

Diego taught my 8 year old daughter beginner piano during her first year and was truly fantastic. He was kind, and patient with her repeated questions on the inner workings of a piano! He made learning fun and she truly enjoyed going to her lessons every week.

Mr Diago is an amazing teacher to my 8 year-old. He’s able to explain to Lauren the notes, beats, chords, and the musicality in a way that she gets it. He’s incredibly engaging & encouraging with her while at the same time requiring her to be accurate and precise with her playing. Every lesson, she comes out better and more confidant, and truly enjoy getting better at her music. We are thankful for what he taught her!
