I've taken both guitar and piano lessons in the past, working with multiple instructors. Without a doubt, Yezi is the best teacher I've ever had. When I encounter challenges, Yezi can quickly offer various solutions to help me overcome the current issue I'm facing. She's dedicated to improving my technique and ensuring that I learn the piano without skipping any steps. In just over a year of lessons with Yezi, I am amazed by my progress. Her guidance and motivation have been key factors in my continued improvement. I highly recommend Yezi to anyone, whether you're starting your piano journey, looking to refine your technique, or anywhere in between.

I’ve been taking lessons with Anthony for about 6 months now, and my guitar playing has definitely improved. Some lessons we have deep discussions on music theory concepts, other lessons we’ve worked on songs and used them as blueprints to learn different techniques or chords or what have you. For example, recently we’ve been working on “Dust in the Wind” by Kansas, and within a month I’ve gone from never fingerpicking an acoustic to playing the song with a degree of efficiency. Genre-wise, we’ve worked on everything from Megadeth to Louis Armstrong, so he’s definitely versatile. He’s also helped me with writing my own material, and has a great recording setup. His prices are fair, and his schedule is usually pretty flexible if I can’t make a lesson one week he finds time for me. Whether you want to sight read music or play some songs around the campfire or shred like Van Halen, he’s your guy.
