Hi! I'm Jessica Inna, 25 years old. I loved going to the Wellington Academy of the Arts for my piano and voice/singing lessons! That's right! I have had all 3, because they offer lesson combos! There, the staff is always kind and do their very best to assist you. I have gone there for in-studio lessons, and have noticed their instruments, and benches, are sanitized between students. The air, is sanitized/sprayed at different times of the day too! Just thought I would mention it, because I don't know of any other place that does that. I think that's great! In addition, one more thing I have always liked there, is that lessons are one-on- one (private), and when a student reserves a time for lessons, he/she get the studio for himself/herself. My piano/voice/singing instructor, Dr. Joyce Crawford, is AMAZING! I started taking lessons at 18, and had various instructors in the past; Because I simply didn't see much improvement/progress, even though I practiced the material they gave me daily, I kept moving on to a new instructor. I had decided to take a year break. I did. Then, about 3 years ago, when I turned 22, I decided to quickly do some research, and look for the very best instructor I could find. After a good amount research, I signed up for piano and voice/singing lessons with Ms. Joyce Crawford. I must say, it's been the best learning experience ever! She is enthusiastic, very knowledgeable, and knows exactly when to push and when to ease up. In addition, her lessons target all aspects of piano playing and singing, including technique and musicality. In singing/voice, she will give you her professional advice/knowledge, and teach you exactly, how to get the very best/most of your voice. She has always made me think, work, get excited about learning, and her lessons are a blast! She's kind, but firm. She is patient, but has expectations. Just what I needed to progress as productively & beautifully as I have. Today, I play the piano and sing so beautifully, that I started to do so professionally. I plan to continue to go back to her for lessons, for some musical/technique support/perfecting, during the beginning of my professional career in music. She's helped me get where I am today, and I'm truly thankful! As a recommendation, if anyone is looking to truly learn and succeed, I could not think of a better
professional/instructor than her. I had various instructors over the years, Then, I found Joyce. Dr. Joyce Crawford is, by far, the best in the business! She comes highly recommended!

I’ve been a student of Adam’s for several years. His knowledge of guitar, and music in general, is astonishing. The man could probably play anything on guitar. Yet he is incredibly down to earth, humble, accommodating, and patient. Under his tutelage, I’ve seen my own ability on the instrument increase tremendously. There’s always more to learn, and Adam presents it so that you are excited to learn it.
