Reviews for Freeport classical piano lessons

Recent success stories from people in the Freeport area.

Katherine H.

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.”

He's a great teacher: encouraging, but also knows when and how to critique and not discourage a beginner. Makes sure it is challenging, but not overwhelming. Encyclopedic knowledge of jazz and music theory. Definitely recommend!

Michael has been such a great teacher with my son. This was his first time taking piano lessons and Michael has done such a great job determining where to start and how to continue to best meet my son’s needs. He is patient and enthusiastic and always provides positive reinforcement. He starts off each lesson with an informal check in (how are you, how was your week) and then moves right into review and the weekly lesson. He communicates with me as well so I know how my son is progressing. This has been a really rewarding experience, not only for my son, but also for me to see the progress that he has been able to make with Michael. He is truly a remarkable piano teacher!

I highly recommend Joe and thankful for finding him via this site.

Glafkos is extremely professional and talented musician, very passionate about the music. He has a great attitude and has been very patient teaching my children the piano. His teaching techniques make it easy to understand new complex pieces, he is very thorough and pays attention to small but important details. Glafkos encourages not only to learn how to play the piano, but to understand the music from the inside. My children always enjoy his lessons. They started taking lessons with Glafkos almost 5 years ago and they have made a great deal of progress in their playing and more important have developed an appreciation to the beauty of classical music.

Jason really understood my situation—a kind of writer's block about the rhythm of my lyrics. He zeroed in on the how and why of it and gave me very clear help that "unfroze" my writing. And production-wise, he's amazing.
