I was so happy to have Niko lecture me on music history. He is an awesome teacher and extremely knowledgeable. He takes the time to help me to understand the history or music and that opened my understanding to be able to take my exam and feel confident all because of Niko amazing and awesome teaching on music history.

Monica is an amazing tutor! We had a lesson in music history, and I came away with a much deeper and thorough understanding of the different eras of classical music, even within the span of just one hour. Her patience and breadth of knowledge is remarkable, and she is an excellent pianist. I can't wait for our next lesson!

Mike is great at helping me understand the nuances of Music History and Theory. He makes lessons engaging and always provides helpful resources. While his response time may be a bit slower than others, he ALWAYS replies. He’s knowledgeable, encouraging, and easygoing—I highly recommend him to music majors or anyone interested in music.
