Ashley is hands-down the best piano teacher I’ve ever had. She has this amazing ability to keep lessons structured but still super fun, so they never feel stiff or stressful. I actually look forward to my lessons every week. She’s also an incredibly talented pianist, and getting to learn from someone at that level has made all the difference in my progress. If you’re looking for a piano teacher for yourself or your child, look no further. I’ve worked with many teachers over the years and trust me, you won’t find anyone better than Ashley.

Ms. Shahbazi is very patient, understanding, and skilled at teaching piano. I would recommend her for student support of all ages! She gave me a lesson while she studied at Chapman University and gave a lot of good tips about fundamentals and the piece we worked on.

Ashley’s amazing! I love her lesson plans for my son. She’s very methodical and organized. Not only did she help Johnny’s piano technique, but also helped develope his musicality. We’re so lucky to have her in our lives.
