I absolutely recommend Shak as a drumming coach. He is extremely friendly and personable. I have played drums in the past but overtime had forgotten certain things and wanted to brush up on them. He was able to pinpoint what I needed to work on and as well as what my strengths were. Overall a great lesson and would definitely book another in the very near future.

Richard is amazing! He truly listens and takes the time to get to know each student, helping guide them in the right direction. He puts his whole heart into teaching and mentoring, creating such a positive and encouraging environment. You can tell he genuinely cares about his students’ growth, both on and off the stage. I’m so grateful for his support and highly recommend working with him!

I truly enjoyed taking Michael's class. His coaching was helpful and well received. I felt very at ease with his positive direction in helping me make the best decision for the role I was aiming for.

She is great with kids. My 6yo had only 2 lessons with her but they already started reading/understanding music notes for beginners, which is amazing.

My son has taken lessons with a few other instructors, but they cannot compare with Mike. Mike is professional, always on time, a great communicator, and he really engages with my son. He plays music that is relevant, and Mike is patient and makes the most of the time. My son looks forward to each week with Mike, and we could not be happier with Mike as an instructor. We highly recommend Mike, if you are looking for someone.

He is a gentle soul and works well with my daughter for the past 3 years. And he comes to our home!

Montclair Voice Studio Distance distinguishes itself from other studios in providing a most optimal and holistic learning environment. Each student is fully assessed and given the tools to identify and correct “weaknesses”, build upon strengths and cultivate ones’ scholarship all while encouraging one to connect with the best opportunities for one’s own artistic/recreational/professional development. I truly cannot say enough about what a wonderful and RARE gem and model is found here. They see you at your best potential here and you leave the studio reaching that potential! Isn’t that the point of learning?!!!

As a theory teacher, Patrick Kreeger possesses the exact teaching style the subject requires. Patience, availability for questions and dedication to my desire to learn best define my experience with Patrick. It was such dedication that also made him call me out when he didn’t think I was doing my best or was making careless mistakes. Perhaps this wouldn’t be that outstanding except that Patrick did all of this long distance; he was in Philadelphia and I was in Delaware. He was timely in mailing me assignments and tests, and even more so in grading and returning them. I learned more from him in the 2 years I studied with him than I did in my last year of theory in my undergrad at music school. If you have the opportunity to study with Patrick Kreeger, consider yourself lucky. You couldn’t find better quality teaching elsewhere.”
