Dennise is a wonderful instructor. She has been teaching my daughter for the past three years and my daughter has thrived in her piano skills. What I love about Dennise is that she is patient with her students and encourages them to keep learning with incentives. She recognizes their struggles and hones in on what they need. I admire that Dennise is super patient with small kids to teenagers. She is friendly and personable. My daugther is now able to play church hymns and feeling confident in playing piano for others.

"Marie's piano studio is a great place to learn piano. I have been taking piano lessons from Marie Harris for five years. I am still taking lessons and now work as one of her assistants. Throughout my lessons, I have not only learned to love the piano, but have also learned a lot of people skills from Marie. Aside from being an extremely adept teacher, she is always patient and encouraging when she talks to the kids. She creates a positive, friendly atmosphere in the studio, ensuring that all of her students enjoy their lessons. I look forward to learning more from Marie Harris.
