Renata is an absolutely amazing piano teacher. She’s so patient and intuitive with me (I’m an adult student with zero experience) and she has totally helped me put my insecurities about starting an instrument in my 30’s aside. She’s actually made me feel confident that I can achieve my goals. I am excited to see all I’ll continue to learn with her leading the way!

José is an amazing teacher!! He is very knowledgeable and has amazing guitar skills that motivate me to practice more. I found him on here during quarantine and we would do lessons whenever we could, he is very accommodating to you’re schedule needs. He is very patient and kind, never made me feel bad when it took me too long to remember a chord😂 By far the best guitar teacher I’ve ever had!

I loved working with Club Z! tutoring of Greater Austin! My son is going into third grade and was recently diagnosed with Dyslexia. School has been challenging since the pandemic, and we needed the one on one support from an in-home tutor. Club Z! was perfect for us, because his tutor comes over four times a week and makes customized lessons for him. He loves it because he has 100 % of the tutor’s attention, and she really makes it fun for him. I never thought I would see him look forward to reading!

Lucas is an amazing instructor. He is very patient and is more than willing to listen to what you’re having trouble with and guide to where you need to be. I would recommend Lucas to anyone that wants to significantly progress on their musical journey.

I came into Danny's lessons as an experienced player, and I think he does a great job of identifying areas of improvement and exposing me to new ways of thinking about music, not just guitar. Danny has a welcoming personality and I look forward to chatting and getting guidance every week. I would recommend Danny to anyone who is looking to improve their ear, their technique and groove.
