Josee is the best! My kids have been taking lessons from Josee for the past 8 years, and Josee continues to nurture and inspire them! My kids LOVE playing piano, and I thank Josee! My kids enjoy playing piano for all of the recitals, Achievement Days, Guild testing, and competitions throughout the year that keep them motivated. Plus, it’s special to hear my kids play piano at the holidays.

Having worked with Collette for over two years now, my 16 year old son loves her teaching style-- she is his favorite teacher he's ever had. She has much patience, knowledge and is overall a very kind and compassionate teacher. She really cares about her students progress and is also a collaborator as she also seeks their input on pieces they select together, areas for improvement and their overall comfort level with new material.

As a parent, I feel very lucky that my daughter has such a wonderful piano teacher. Mr. Pilot is incredibly patient and encouraging, creating a positive and supportive environment for her to learn. He also provides clear notes after each class, which makes it much easier for her to practice at home. I’ve seen great progress in her skills and, more importantly, her confidence and enjoyment of music. I truly appreciate his dedication and the care he puts into each lesson.
