Kay M. says, "EXCELLENT! I am truly Greatful for my child to be under the instruction of Mr. Derrickson. My 10 year old daughter has studied piano under Mr. John Derrickson at Miami Valley Music Instruction for over three years, and the growth has been remarkable. She was completely new in learning this instrument. Under his guidance, she is learning to become fluent in reading music, can sing while playing, and receives valuable lessons on the history and origins of the music she performs. Mr. Derrickson is more than an instructor he is a gifted educator who creates meaningful challenges, motivates his students to give their best, and truly aims for their success. Because of his guidance, my daughter has performed at schools, churches, and community events receiving standing ovations, repeated invitations, and even monetary gifts from appreciative audiences. Adding voice lessons this past year has expanded her knowledge and given her even greater confidence in performing before large crowds. I am truly grateful for this phenomenal teacher who is patient and continues to guide and inspire my daughter, not only in the art of music but also in developing self-confidence and professionalism. I highly recommend Mr. Derrickson for anyone seeking exceptional, inspiring music instruction. Thank you!!"See more

Trevor K. says, "Lessons with Harrison have been really good. They keep me motivated to keep practicing even on the days I don’t feel like it. He’s great at pushing me forward while keeping it fun. The chord-based learning method really clicked for me. Learning songs through chords made everything connect. I started seeing how melodies fit inside harmony, and it made it way easier to learn new songs and play by ear. My ear has definitely improved a lot; I can pick up songs faster and understand what I’m hearing now. I honestly feel like a better musician than I was a few months ago, with a much stronger grasp of music theory and how it all works. The group lessons have been great too. They’re supportive and encouraging, and everyone gets a chance to ask questions. Performing for the group felt surprisingly comfortable, it’s a totally judgment-free environment that helped me build confidence. Overall, Harrison’s creative approach to practical music theory has made a huge difference for me. I’m learning faster, I understand what I’m playing, and for the first time, I actually feel like I’m making music instead of just practicing notes."See more

Joe D. says, "I'm a trumpet player and have taken lessons from Ron for about 2 years. He is very informative and and very easy to understand. We have gone over the jazz scales/chords and how to fit them into improvisation as well as taking a good look at the chord stucture of a song. He always having me play the 3rd's and 7th's to get the flavor of the tune. He's a "superb" Musician!!! Maybe have a "practice CD" to work with until we have another session. Keep doing what your doing!!!"See more
