Review by Vickie
"We have only had 2 lessons with Hannah so far, but my daughter is really enjoying it. The one-hour lessons seem to be a huge benefit. (30 minutes seemed
to be over before they even began.)
I am hopeful that Hannah will be able to inspire my daughter to love piano even more than she seems to now."

"Christina is super patient with my teenage girls! Her gift has so graciously been translated into a new creative outlet for my girls! She has cultivated
the art of teaching in such a way that my kids treat their lesson like a session. There's a sense if appreciation woven into the way Christina teaches that helps her students love what they are learning! Makes nagging the girls to do daily practice a non-issue! They love trying out what they've learned! Love, love Christina! She is truly a gem! -Shana W. (Cassie and Scotlyn's mom)"

Micheal's business based environment in an open studio type classroom is a must. In Micheal's unique style of teaching you not only learn to play the guitar, but he also instructs you in song with a spirit of being well satisfied.
As shoppers pass through the store they enjoy the sounds of students playing their guitars following the guidance of Mr. Christian. This also gives his students a chance to perform in front of other people giving them a finer definitions for the art of music. If you are looking for a music instructor, one who focuses in on your difficult areas and searches for improvement to make you the best musician possible in all areas, or if you are just looking to learn and have lots of fun, then Mr. Christian is your contact. Please visit him at one of his jam sessions..

Since I knew nothing about guitars, I had no idea what type of guitar to purchase for Jennifer. Mr. Christian offered on his own time to go with us to help in the purchase of the guitar. He kept in mind what we could afford and the quality of the guitars, it was very reassuring to know that he was looking out for our welfare and to be able trust him.
I am very impressed with the progress Jennifer has made in playing the guitar. She looked forward to her lessons with Mike. She looked forward to her lessons with Mike. He made the lessons interesting and "fun". Mike not only taught her to play the guitar but also how to read music and understand it.
Mike is a very kind, moral, talented young man and I recommend him highly. We are sorry to see him leave, however, our loss is your gain.

About Hannah
Hey there! My name is Hannah, I have been teaching piano for about 7 years, and over that time had 15 students. They were all completely new to the piano (and music in general), but over time were able to read music, understand simple technique/theory, and play music both at home and in church. I love being able to take a completely new student who is willing to learn, and see him/her learn to enjoy (yes, enjoy ;) playing the piano.

About Glaubirsel
Hey there! I am a violin instructor and I've been teaching professionally for 3 years. I focus primarily on classical technique but I can't teach you anything you'd like, from pop to rock to movie score music! I see music as an amazing outlet for expression so it's important to me that my students truly enjoy what they are playing and how they are leaning. I do teach music theory along the way and my students all learn how to read sheet music.
I have played in an orchestra setting for 6 years (3 of those I spent in two orchestras), so I know what it's like to audition and do seating tests. If you are in orchestra and need help preparing for these things I can definitely help you succeed!
