Lisa D

“Jesse LOVES his classes with Khalia!
He always comes out with a bit of a skip in his step and is happy and excited. He actually asked me to listen to him sing a bit of “Ordinary” last night.. and normally he would never do that.  

He thinks it’s cool how she is challenging him to listen to music and artists out of his normal taste.  And more than anything, I think Kahlia is already helping with his confidence.. as a singer.. and overall.

Nothing but good things to say!”

 

Ana R

Quang H
“Thank you for caring about Tony, yes He likes to play the piano, I can see how he has been improving. Felicia is a good teacher.”

 

Ryan K
“I really enjoy my lessons with Tamir because he is able to dynamically decide when we can jump ahead or when we need to stay on a certain detail. As an adult student with background in other instruments, I wasn’t sure how it would go starting from scratch, but Tamir does a good job of steering the lesson plan to my progress. I enjoy the pace and length of the lessons and receiving documents via lessonmate.”

 

Leigh A
“Our lessons with Rick were great. Our son is loving it and we’re planning to continue his lesson or maybe add more time on the next year :)”

 

Jennet S
“Aria loves that Stacie teaches at her pace. She acknowledges her progress and is very patient with her. She asks and recognizes Aria’s needs and advances accordingly.”

 

Kathleen M
“Kyla was very excited yet quite nervous to start piano lessons with an instructor. Kenza has turned out to be absolutely wonderful! Right from the initial meet and greet intro visit, Kyla always expresses how easy and fun Kenza teaches. Kyla is able to come home and pick up on lesson homework, and she’s eager to do it, and the next lesson can’t come soon enough. Kenza is teaching Kyla at just the right pace, and this makes it encouraging for her.”

 

Oyinda S
“For Hadassah, she didn’t really like her former piano class in Edmonton but I noticed here in Winnipeg, she likes her lessons and wants to practice more at home.

This is Zemirah’s first time and I’m happy she is eager to learn and show off what she learned at home. Also, I liked the detailed note from last week concerning Zemirah’s last class, it helped me in guiding her during her practice at home.”

Tunde
“The instructor is good, my son likes Alex and he is picking up pretty well.”

 

Parker G
“So far I’m really liking the lessons, it definitely speeds up the process compared to teaching yourself. Jatin’s a really nice guy and a great instructor he makes sure to inform me when I’m doing one of my bad habits that I’ve picked up from teaching myself and I really appreciate that because sometimes I don’t even notice I’m doing it until he tells me. Overall I’m enjoying the lessons very much and looking forward to learning new techniques and songs I enjoy playing.”

 

Tendai K
“Eli loves his sessions with Mr. Rick. Mr Rick is patient and kind and keeps Eli engaged the entire lesson. We have never had a problem trying to convince Eli to get to class. He has been practicing at home too and is looking forward to tackling the actual instrument in the near future.”

Thanks Mr. Rick!”
