Ali is a great teacher: engaging, adaptive, and responsive to keep a young student interested in the lesson. Her lessons and approach accomodate the early school age child and are developmentally-appropriate. I feel lucky we found her!

My daughter is 4 1/2 years old, LOVES to sing but is terribly shy! She strives for perfection and feels defeated when she doesn’t get something right the very first try 🥴. Ms. Ali’s ability to engage, entertain, motivate, provide comfort and reassurance all while teaching/coaching is impeccable. Her passion for singing and teaching radiates off her. It’s contagious. Seeing how shy my daughter can be, I’ve asked if she’d like to stop and her response is “No mommy I like Ms. Ali, I just need to keep trying”!

Ali inspires me to learn with her patience understanding, and encouragement. I really appreciate the fact that she requires that I learn music the right way; no shortcuts. It’s important to her that her students really understand how to read music and not just play by numbers only. She is ALWAYS punctual, professional, and pleasant. If you can’t go to Juilliard or Berkeley, no worries because learning with Ali is parallel. I honestly feel like I’m receiving the formal training that I’ve ALWAYS dreamt of and I’m amazed at how quickly I’m progressing. SO VERY HAPPY THAT I SELECTED ALI!!!
