What a wonderful instructor! Alex has been teaching my daughter for several years. It was so convenient to have Alex come to our home and not have to worry about driving and making the lesson on time!

Deborah Brener is an excellent teacher. She is patient and kind and always checks in to make sure the way she is teaching is working for you. Her Piano studio is great as well with 2 side by side grand pianos. I would definitely recommend Deborah Brener to anyone looking to learn piano for the first time or just looking to improve their playing and take it to the next level.

My family’s experience with Mona Rose studios has been nothing short of amazing. My 10 year old son has been paino taking lesson for over three years and his musical skills and talent continue to grow. My 7 year old daughter has been taking lessons with Mona for about a year and a half. She learned to read music within the first couple weeks and has learned so many new songs. Both of my kids look forward to their weekly lessons as Mona is so personable and friendly with the kids. She knows how to keep them engaged and motivated. Recently, my daughter started taking Vocal Lessons with Ms. Camille through Mona Rose Studios and she has been enjoying that tremendously. My daughter loves to sing, and now I can’t wait to see her vocals develop as much as her piano skills have developed. I have recommended Mona Rose Studios to so many of my family and friends and cannot say enough great things about her.

Mark has been our kids (aged 11 and 9) piano teacher for a couple years. He is very professional and takes the time to adjust his teachings so that both kids can understand it at their individual levels. Mark is very patient with the kids. He is also very flexible with his schedule, accommodating the times when we need to reschedule the kids' lesson. It has been very convenient to have Mark come to the house to give the kids their lessons. Mark strikes a balance between teaching piano in a way that the kids can understand it, but also instilling the fundamentals of reading music and understanding the musicality of the songs they are learning. It is evident that Mark is very knowledge and has a passion for the piano; that comes through in his teaching.

My daughter takes lessons with Cal Music and has taken voice, piano and guitar lessons. In the years she has taken lessons, she has learned alot and had many wonderful teachers. The performances have given her confidence beyond what I though they would. I would highly recommend this studios for beginners and advanced students. I have recently decided to try to learn to sing as well and they found me the perfect teacher who makes me feel comfortable and I love my lessons also. We will be long time students here and would not go anywhere else.

We are thrilled with David! We are taking online lessons from him. He's so encouraging and patient with my 7-year old son. Very friendly and engaging. I also greatly appreciate the level of detail in lesson preparedness and materials to use throughout the week for practice

Eiki is not only the best music teacher I've had, but also one of the best teachers I've had in general. She has a lot of experience under her belt and you can tell she knows what she is doing when you sit down at a lesson with her (regardless of your level of piano competency). She brings a lot of energy with her and is flexible and very present with you at every lesson. I would recommend her to anyone looking for fun and very effective piano lessons.
