I am an older student and have taken lessons from a few piano teachers over the years. Alexis is by far my favorite. She teaches not only how to play but theory as well. Very patient, extremely knowledgeable, can't say enough great things about her. Wouldn't ever want a different teacher. I feel very lucky!

Vince is teaching me classical guitar. He is an incredible instructor. His mastery of technique and music theory is amazing. I've come a long way with Vince. I can't thank him enough for his encouragement and the knowledge he's shared with me, and I look forward to learning more!

My son was referred to Ms Juliana in 2013 when he was entering 6th grade and looking for more of a challenge. He started playing piano in 2nd grade, and his first teacher had taken lessons herself from Juliana. She suggested that Sean would do well with longer, more intense lessons. He did! He was hesitant at first, knowing Juliana had higher expectations, but she helped him excel and enjoy playing at the same time. He entered several competitions and festivals, something he was nervous about before starting lessons with her. His favorite pieces were duets with Juliana. They sounded beautiful!
