Cynthia M. says, "I feel so lucky to have found Paul as a piano teacher. He’s kind and patient and very encouraging. He’s given me all new ways to look at the idea of practice. This has helped tremendously because sometimes you’re not able to sit at the piano, but Paul has taught me that looking at pieces of music, even while sitting on the couch and analyzing it, counts as practice. he has shown me great ways to look at a piece of sheet music and break it down so that it’s more approachable. If you’re an adult wanting to take piano lessons, don’t hesitate to contact Paul. I felt a little silly at my age, taking lessons again, but he’s very respectful and takes me seriously which is nice. he’s also a very upstanding human being."See more

Kerry M. says, "As someone who has struggled with keeping a consistent schedule for practicing guitar, the skills, songs, and encouragement Jaime provides in his lessons sets you up to effectively practice and advance your guitar playing. I started out not even knowing how to play guitar with a pick, and now I can play several songs in full! He is a wonderful teacher for all skill levels. His feedback is always very helpful, clear, and precise. His lessons are also very structured: he first goes through warmups with you, then teaches you a song of your choice or according to your music taste, as well as revisiting songs you have already learned and enhancing your ability to play them. He is very accomodating and flexible with scheduling classes, as well as very patient and understanding. I have been taking classes with him for about a year now, and I have improved tremendously in such a short amount of time. I couldn’t have gotten to the level I am at now without him. Siena M. My daughter has been taking lessons from Jaime for the past year now, and she has made significant progress in that time. Jaime asked her to provide a list of songs that she wanted to learn, and has tailored his lessons around her interests. She has learned a range of songs from easy to complex, and I’ve been impressed with her progression in learning from week to week. Jaime has been very gracious in adjusting his class time to her schedule and this is one activity that she looks forward to every week. Kerry M. (Father)"See more

Tyler W. says, "I've been playing guitar casually for years and love to cover songs, but I'm limited to songs that are transcribed and available online. I've never been able to figure out songs by ear. I reached out to Tom with Mindful Music with a specific song that I wanted to learn. He did an awesome job helping me learn the song, involving me in the process of deconstructing and transcribing the song, and taught me a lot about music theory and technique along the way. Now I can play the song perfectly. I highly recommend Tom as a music teacher."See more

Heather P. says, "I had the pleasure of working alongside Owen Reilly at School of Rock, and I can confidently say he's one of the most talented and versatile guitarists I’ve ever met. Owen is an absolute shredder, effortlessly blending blazing metal techniques with the soul and finesse of country guitar. His deep musical vocabulary allows him to move seamlessly between genres, always bringing energy, precision, and creativity to the stage and the rehearsal room. Whether he's laying down face-melting solos or crafting tasteful, melodic phrases, Owen's playing is always dialed in and inspiring."See more
