Review:

A Positive and Passionate Instructor

A year ago Andrea W. was referred to us by my daughter’s summer school coordinator for private piano lessons. She has been instructing in our home, and has been an enthusiastic teacher, and continues to be very patient and encouraging. As I am not a musician, I have relied heavily on her guidance, and she is always receptive to any questions asked. From the beginning she outlined specific music books, pieces, and materials for study and practice, as well as offered good advice. Andrea has stressed the importance of technique, understanding music theory, and playing different styles of music. Overall I have been pleased with my daughter’s development in the last year, and know Andrea will continue to help her work through any bumps along the way. Their joint-effort has enriched our lives, and we are grateful to have such a wonderful musician and teacher to provide these lessons. All of my experience with Andrea been positive, and I would recommend her for any music instruction for adults or children. She has been professional, flexible with our schedule, and continually exceeds her obligations, as I believe she truly wants her students to succeed. Sally Mallon wrote on Thu, 08 Jun 2017
