Dr. Sansbury is the best teacher for piano performance and music education, who especially combines scientific methods and systematic curriculum. She has many years of experience and very serious in her teaching; She is nice to and patient with students. My daughter made great progress not only in techniques but also in theory ever since the lessons with her.

Jay pretty much taught me how to produce and mix music. He inspired me creatively and taught me ways to make my production more interesting. He also taught me lots of technical mixing skills. I feel much more confident as an engineer and producer because of our work together.

Music has always been a huge part of my life, and so over the years I've tried many times to learn an instrument. Guitar, bass, piano, saxophone, harmonica, voice... none of them really panned out for me. When I look back on it now, I see there were two things that always stopped me from getting anywhere: The first one was: when I tried to teach myself I felt too overwhelmed by all of the different advice out there. And the second thing was: I never clicked with any of the teachers I found. They were all cool people, but I struggled to learn the way they wanted me to learn, and I couldn't stay engaged with the material. My guitar lessons with David were the exact opposite of those things. They were exactly the kind of thing I was looking for. David has a very egoless teaching style, and I was really humbled by how much thought he put into every aspect of the lessons. We did four virtual lessons over Zoom, over the course of about a month and a half. He gave me exercises to practice, and notes about what we went over. In the beginning I did my best to explain my challenges to him when it comes to learning, motivation, practicing, and confidence. Shockingly, he then took all of that into account, and I never once felt like I was "letting him down" or that I wasn't "where I should be." It's very rare for me to feel that relaxed about learning something. I felt that I had the permission and the space to learn how I learn, and to follow the parts that are interesting to me. Because of that, I felt that I wanted to practice, and I did. I have rarely, if ever, met someone who takes the business of teaching as seriously as David. I can't imagine how different my life would be if I had encountered more teachers like David, in my life.

Karen is a talented musician and knowledgeable vocal coach! Voice lessons have been informative and fun! I feel like she really got to know me as a person and has figured out how I learn best! Therefore my lessons are personalized for me and I’ve made great progress! I highly recommend Karen if you’re looking to find your confidence and grow as a singer! -KB

My daughter, Ayane, has been taking voice lessons with Mr. Marty for over a year now, and the experience has been incredibly positive. Ayane absolutely adores him. One of the things she appreciates most is how Mr. Marty goes the extra mile to support his students. For instance, when Ayane had an audition for a play, he reached out to me via text to check in on her progress and offer encouragement. It really showed his genuine interest in her success. Additionally, during Ayane's time at Destination Broadway, Mr. Marty took the initiative to send me a personalized voice exercise tailored specifically for her. This was not only helpful for her development but also demonstrated how much he truly cares about his students' growth and well-being. His dedication and thoughtfulness make a significant difference in Ayane's learning experience, and we are both grateful for his guidance.
