Blanca P. says, "She knows music well and takes the time to explain it well to children, including music theory. In my experience many children music instructors skip the theory because they only want to show the kids plying, but this leads to weak musicians. If you want your child to be a strong musician, Holly is the right instructor!" Read more

Mandy S. says, "I see great improvements after Carol started to teach my son. My youngest boy has difficulty to sit still, but Carol continually changed her teaching method to best fit him. She would ask him and myself what kind of music we would enjoy at home, then coach him to learn willingly, so we would both enjoying the music when he was practicing. Once he can plays fluently, he has more confidence to learn happily and not giving up. I love Carol as she makes piano more interesting and challenging for my boy. Highly recommend !" Read more

It is with great pleasure that I write a letter of recommendation for Carol Schindler. Carol has been my children’s piano teacher for the past 6 months. My 9-year-old twins connected with Carol immediately, responding to her genuine warmth and her enthusiastic, supportive approach. Carol is a patient teacher and sees the children for who they are and the musicians they are within. She challenges the students to keep the learning process going and praises their accomplishments. Not only have my children progressed as talented piano players, they have gained self-confidence. This is what the boys themselves think about Carol- very nice, caring, funny and helped me concentrate. My favorite teacher because you are kind, caring, loving and skilled!! I highly recommend Carol as a piano teacher, so your child can experience her passion and love of music first hand.
