My daughter (age 8) has been taking piano lessons at the DaVinci Center for 2 years. It's truly the best investment we've made for her. She loves piano and loves her teacher, Maria! The Creations Conert, local gigs and the Multiple Piano Festival are icing on the cake! Maria is an outstanding teacher, patient, kind, very very talented, organized, and knows how to connect with the kids. We are so lucky to have The DaVinci school in our community!!

If you're anything like me, you get frustrated and stuck trying to learn everything you want to learn off of YouTube and other tutorials alone. Finding the right teacher who can answer questions in real time can also feel somewhat challenging. That's where Jay comes in! Not only is Jay a phenomenal artist, but he is a phenomenal teacher. He is extremely knowledgeable, clear, and patient. After even just one lesson, one can expect to walk away feeling revitalized and inspired to continue forward with their music and ideas. I cannot stress enough how worth it signing up for lessons will feel!!! 10 out of 10 stars

She takes on a very multi-faceted approach to teaching music. She teaches our daughter how to hear and feel the music, and learn the notes. She makes it fun! And she’s been creative with how to establish routines for practicing most days. Lastly, and perhaps most importantly, she really seems to enjoy what she does and care for our child. Thanks Collette!

I am delighted to recommend Nicole as an exceptional piano teacher. My daughter’s experience with her over the past four years has been transformative for her piano skills and confidence. Nicole has a nurturing teaching style that makes every lesson enjoyable and tailored to Alana’s individual needs. She takes the time to understand Alana’s strengths and areas for improvement that encourage her to explore new pieces and techniques. If you are looking for a dedicated and skilled piano teacher who fosters a positive learning environment, I wholeheartedly recommend Nicole. She has been instrumental in Alana’s musical journey.
