What our clients say
Connie has been very reliable and flexible with scheduling lessons.
We have two girls taking lessons (1 flute, the other piano). When starting with Connie, both experienced an immediate improvement (especially our flute player) as they were taught “proper” techniques. Connie has been great at finding music that provided appropriate challenges according to their interests (especially for our Super Mario fan). Connie has been very reliable and flexible with scheduling lessons.
I love Ms. Connie’s music lessons.
I love Ms. Connie’s music lessons. I play piano, my older sister plays the flute, and she is also very helpful. She always comes up with a solution on what to do if (for example, lets say my hands are very small.)She will figure out what to do always. I even created this account to let all of you people who see this that Ms. Connie is the best music teacher ever. I have no clue how to rate this 5 stars, but if I did, I would 100% rate it that. I had so much growth from her, and my sister also had growth too.
She is one of the best around!
We travel far just to have a lesson with Ms. Connie. My son is very shy and loves piano now. She is very patient and helps him choose the songs he enjoys playing. She is also a very accomplished pianist herself and plays at a professional level! She is one of the best around!
Ms Connie is a very kind and nice teacher with great experience
My daughter has been playing flute with Ms Connie since last year. Ms Connie is a very kind and nice teacher with great experience on music plus teaching. Her approach is easy for a beginner kid to follow but also gives my daughter enough guidance to grow on her technique. We are very happy to see her progression since having class with Ms Connie.
