I really needed Ramo’s help! He really helped me learn the industry of acting and how to act better in general. I only had 2 sessions with him so far but I learned a ton from him. I really enjoy working with him!

Chino is a very nice, and outgoing person that cares deeply about what he does. He’s very hands-on with his students, and offers a lot of knowledge. With all of that, his classes fit most people’s budget. Best part, he makes the classes fun, and time really flies by. I would most definitely recommend reaching out to Chino for some lessons.

Only had 2 lessons so far with Luis but I can tell you he knows his stuff. After only two lessons and tips he gave me I have seen small improvements in my voice, he has very versatile teaching methods that are easy to grasp onto and have very good effect and meaning behind them. I would totally recommend him if you want to improve your voice especially for a beginner, he is also an actor so if your an actor and wanting toti act give him a shot :)

Chino has been very helpful with all the resources to practice and very nice teacher for a beginner like me. I started with zero music knowledge and he helped me learn reading and understanding music and have a strong base before learning the instrument itself.

FAQs
What should the customer know about your pricing (e.g., discounts, fees)?
I give trial lessons for a low fee and I work with customers who are on a budget.
What is your typical process for working with a new customer?
I get a sense of what the customer needs and have a dialogue about the training and the expected results with time frames and goals.
What education and/or training do you have that relates to your work?
For music lessons: I attended music school in Texas and have taught private lessons for 20 years. I studied all string instruments (violin, viola, cello, bass) as well as voice, guitar and piano. I have also taught music in public schools and I have had several music director positions in various churches. I am currently an actor/musician and dog trainer in NYC.
