Adam is a very dedicated artist and an awesome artist instructor. My daughter loves drawing it keeps her calm and zoned into her drawings. She has gotten a lot better with her drawings and techniques. We recommend Adam to all that wants to learn to draw or sharpen your up your drawing techniques.

I'm a 74 year old retired man. I have always loved acting but have had some minor challenges due to bad eye sight and I'm not that computer savvy. Jim helped me learn how to use an I-pad my grand daughter gave me to help me expand fonts to read scripts. Though I'm only doing this so far for a hobby, I can see huge improvement in my ability to memorize scripts and act convincingly. Jim encouraged me to audition for the community senior center's drama club. I couldn't believe it I got right in and enjoying meeting new people (I'm widowed). Jim has been a Godsend. I'm finding new joy and I'm enjoying seeing local theatre productions. I appreciate his kind, patient, and professional matter. Acting lessons with Jim is what got me through the horrible isolation during Covid quarantine. He is also incredibly knowledgable on health such as veganism, breathing/meditation and is encouraging me to get into a healthier lifestyle. My voice/sinuses improved after giving up dairy. I used to get chronic sinusitis. So I feel acting has been beneficial to my overall health. Though Jim is pricier than other teachers in the area... I believe you pay for what you get. The extra money I pay is well worth it. The two other acting coaches I used before Jim...were mediocre and treated me like an invalid. Jim continues to inspire me to be the best I can be in all areas of my life. I consider him a good friend and he is one of the best educators out there.

Noel is an amazing player and teacher, together we have worked on proper technique, ear training, music theory, composition, and various practice methods. Since meeting him I have become a much better guitar player, and overall musician. My favorite part about working with him is his ability to learn any song by ear within minutes, which we can then dissect together. He is truly the full package, and I strongly recommend him to any student, beginner, or professional looking to improve. Very grateful to have met him, and am looking forward to taking lessons for the foreseeable future!

Professor Nevarez will keep you on track and she is very flexible with her sessions. She is very professional and gives very helpful lessons. One great differentiator is that she will customize her lessons to fit your interests, keeping you engaged while learning!

I have worked with Mary in the past as both a writer and an actor. She is knowledgeable about her crafts, as well as patient and professional. Most recently she completed some editing for me which had well thought out and useful critiques that added a new level to a character. It was invaluable feedback that I believe came from how personal Mary is with her clients. Each time that I work with her she reminds me why I keep at it. I would absolutely recommend Samary Media.

I’ve learned so much working with Harriet. She has a created a system that utilizes steps to completing your song. If you follow her steps, you can’t go wrong. Before studying with her, I had several incomplete songs that I just couldn’t finish. I no longer have that problem. I highly recommend Harriet Schock. You won’t be disappointed!
