Ms. Natalia is one of the most patient yet challenging teachers I have ever had. She taught me how to read music sheets, music theory, styles, and introduced me to various genres that sounded beautiful; all of this fueling my passion for piano. I am a slow learner when it comes to piano and memorization, but she really adapted to my pace while still pushing me to do my best, giving me the perfect amount of challenge while still not overwhelming me. I was honestly surprised by my own progress speed, as it usually takes me a while to pick up on learning things. No matter how many times I would do the same thing wrong, she was always persistent and patient in pointing out each mistake I made to make sure I never formed any bad playing habits. I feel like I got really lucky to have her as my first piano teacher; she is a very knowledgeable, kind, understanding, diligent, and patient teacher. If you give Ms. Natalia a chance you will find that she's truly a gem of a teacher!

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.
