    Dr. Joanna is a very nice, patient and knowledgeable teacher. Her teaching is very effective, with her help, I am making progress steadily. Violin learning is a very long process, and Dr. Joanna prepares students with solid foundation for further development. I feel very lucky to have Dr. Joanna lead me to the world of string music.

    My two kids ( 15 years old and 11 years old) really enjoy studying violin with Joanna. She is not only an excellent violinist, but also an educator, who understand how to communicate and motivate her students.
