A true modern Master and as much a Virtuoso as a Teacher...

Attila is exceptional. He is a master of the arts of playing music and teaching it. He teaches chords, notes of course, and the precise finger positions each lesson with continuous feedback. Attila teaches my son with ADHD. My son learns from him and is motivated to come back with what Attila has asked of him. We haven’t had great quality from anyone else in Portland until we met this fabulous maestro, Attila Csikos. Sign up, he can teach you and yours no matter if the student is just starting, intermediate or preparing to compete for a chair in band. My son is 8 and composed a short song about our dog. Attila ties life into playing music and enthusiastically played the song with him and critiqued the score. My son is getting an opportunity to learn from the best.

Alex is absolutely phenomenal, and really does well at pushing you to become a better singer. He finds way to meet you were you are, while also tailoring warmups and exercises to challenge you and improve technique. Lessons are always fun, and I would definitely recommend him to anyone looking to strengthen their confidence in singing!

I had not had piano instruction for 46 years ! He taught me theory ; How to find and use the cords in any key ; rhythms; and playing as a worshiper and facilitator for worship . Also some beginning instruction on creating music . Beginning with familiar and adding one new element , words, tune, rhythm . Excellent Instructor !

Charles responded to our inquiry very quickly. He has infectious enthusiasm for music and so far has been a great match for our kids, ages 16, 9, and 7. He comes to our home and charges a very reasonable price.

I enjoyed the different pieces I worked with and how there was some variety in the music. I also felt that Polly was able to accommodate well when a certain technique was difficult for me to understand the first time; she's great at explaining concepts in different ways.
