    My twins have been taking lessons with Hiro for almost 2 years. They started from very beginner and now they are playing some nice tunes. We switched to virtual lessons due to COVID-19. He’s great.

    Mr. Ikeda is not only a gifted musician, but he also works well with young adults, instilling confidence in them and yet pushing them to reach further in honing their skills. He is patient and persistent and really strives to help his students improve. He is also very supportive both of their efforts in school band and in the development of their own musical interests. Mr. Ikeda is always professional and kind. I am so grateful that he has trained my child over two years now.
