Rachel was easy to get in touch with and her availability was great. Her positive feedback and reinforcements were encouraging throughout our sessions. She came prepared with notes and printouts of topics I was questionable on in previous lessons and she made sure I was clear on the content before moving on. It was most helpful to come prepared with questions and topics I was unsure about.

Right off the bat meeting Janice in our local hangout I immediately felt her calming aura and that helped my son get rid of his 6 year old nerves. Janice, was both encouraging and uplifting with her youngest client to date (as her and I discussed afterward). She was able to give Chase an assignment which he was able to understand and convey back to Janice.

He is not just a talented violinist, but he knows HOW to teach (some are gifted but really can’t teach—James has a gift for playing AND teaching). As a 55-year-old beginner, and not exactly a natural, I struggle with bowing, with first position fingering, you name it, but James is both quite encouraging and at the same time full of constructive tips, and after leaving a lesson, I GET it! He is patiently supportive, never intimidating, and efficient.
