I have had the pleasure of taking piano lessons from Toby- Samantha for 4 months. I was drawn to Toby when I saw her experience as a piano teacher of all levels, her formal education and her experience as a professional teacher/composer. I am 70 years old and she has helped me build an understanding of how to read notes, how to time the music and build my confidence all while playing music that I love, which is classical music. I started piano lessons as a way to challenge my aging brain and have ended up with that and so much more. Toby also has unique Informal Practice Performances for her students which helps build confidence, a means to understand excellent playing, and also builds community between the students. I recently attended one of these and was really pleased at how wonderful the playing and discussion was. Toby is also very professional and always responds quickly and reschedules my lessons as needed. All in all, she is a fantastic teacher who really cares about her student's progress.

I had such an amazing experience working with Jess!! She is so vibrant and truly has a passion for helping others along their music journey. I've always loved singing but am pretty shy about it. Jess created such a comfortable, and positive environment for me to sing my heart out, learn, and grow. She does such a great job at being professional and fun all at the same time. She also gives great feedback and clear techniques that helped improved my control and tone. I truly can't recommend her enough!!
