I feel very fortunate to have found Raisa as a piano teacher. I am an advanced adult student who has played the piano for many years and studied with many teachers. I am truly convinced that Raisa is an exceptional teacher – she has an in-depth knowledge of all aspects of the music including styles, historic context, technique, and of course, musicianship. And she conveys this knowledge effectively and often with a great sense of humor. She has shown me how to make difficult technical problems easier (I am playing pieces that I never thought I’d be able to play) and given me a greater understanding of how to analyze a piece of music – always in a manner that makes the knowledge transferable to other pieces of music. What’s most important to me, however, is that I feel that I am always being challenged to reach my personal best. She does not let me settle for “just okay” or “just good”, but encourages me to listen and work out those details in the music that separate the good from the artistic. Because of her, I believe I have really grown as a musician.

My daughter has been taking lessons for over a year, and we could not be happier with the level of instruction and the progress my daughter has made.

Only one lesson so far and I am not disappointed. I've taken guitar lessons as a child and I compared those lessons to my son's. Mark took his time and made it easy to understand. Where as a child I was frustrated because teaching did not come easy to the instructor I had. Mark seems to have a passion for music and teaching. I could tell he has so much knowledge to pour onto others, he seemed so excited to jump right in. My son is 10 yrs old and it was the first time that he actually played the guitar. Mark did not rush him, he really made it an enjoyable experience. He is now looking forward to his guitar lessons every week.
