Within ONE lesson, Howard could pinpoint EXACTLY what my trouble areas are, and not only is he able to articulate a very clear plan for dealing with those, but he has also helped me with the burdening amount of pain that plagues my joints and muscles when I play something technically demanding! Furthermore, he is very focused, understanding, knowledgeable and gentle! After having many verbally.... difficult teachers whose teaching involved quite a bit of negative reinforcement, it is an absolute pleasure and an eye opening experience to have a patient, understanding teacher. Some people may learn quite well in that fashion, and there was a period of time when I actually believed, or rather was brainwashed into thinking that being verbally berated would serve as motivation. But now I see quite clearly that is not the case: I learn a lot better and I am more motivated to practice when I find it a pleasure to go to my piano lessons! Thank you, Howard for all your dedication, patience and knowledge!

Amazing world of music

Mardi D.

April is great!! My son has been in show choir for 3 years and It was my son’s first private lesson outside of choir. He has been struggling, having a hard time reaching some of the high notes and running out of air. April was able to identify the problem on his first lesson and explained it so well to him that he finally figured it out. She helped Noah how to improve and he was so excited about recognizing his mix voice. He couldn’t stop singing the songs he was having trouble with or scared to sing, it was like night and day. She also has great vocal exercises online for easy access from anywhere. Noah is excited and is looking forward to his next lesson!!! I also love the fact that she is nearby. Thanks April for giving him his confident back in singing those hard to reach note. I don’t know why I’d didn’t see a vocal coach for him sooner.
