Testimonials

Iris and Julius

Aisling has thoroughly enjoyed learning piano, recognizing the hard work she has put in, especially when she conquers challenging pieces. The sense of accomplishment she feels after pushing through something difficult is a highlight of her experience. She’s also loved meeting other young pianists in the studio, building friendships with peers she might not have encountered otherwise. This is all thanks to the wonderful sense of community Angela has cultivated. Aisling feels inspired by those around her and motivated to grow alongside them. 

It has been amazing to see how Aisling’s courage and discipline have grown throughout her piano journey. Angela has a way of gently nudging her out of her comfort zone, and it’s been transformative. Tackling new challenges and seeing the results of her efforts has boosted her confidence—not just in music but in other areas of her life as well. The creativity she channels into her playing now spills over into her schoolwork and hobbies. Watching her embrace this process has been so rewarding.

As parents, we’ve been so impressed with Angela’s teaching approach. Observing her instruction firsthand in the studio has shown us how accessible and effective piano learning can be. Angela’s ability to make lessons engaging while encouraging Aisling to strive for her best is inspiring. Her guidance has even extended to us as parents—tools to better support Aisling’s growth at home. The transformation we’ve seen from a hesitant beginner to an eager and confident performer has been incredible.

Ms. Angela has been such an amazing teacher to my son!

From the moment we walked into her cozy, welcoming piano studio, we knew it was the right place. The grand piano is beautiful, and the sound it makes fills the room with such warmth. What we love most is how Ms. Angela creates a fun, supportive environment for the kids. She organizes monthly group sessions which not only helps them learn to work together but also boosts their confidence.

She’s great at teaching more than just the notes—she emphasizes good posture, proper finger technique, and the importance of dynamics in music. Ms. Angela’s patience and encouragement have made all the difference for my son. It’s because of her that he loves playing the piano so much! 

We’ve seen such amazing progress, from playing "Carol of the Bells" to tackling "Take Five" and even winning the Best of Festival award in the Junior Division at the Jazz, Rags, and Blues Festival.

We’re so grateful for Ms. Angela’s guidance and would wholeheartedly recommend her studio to anyone looking for a great piano teacher.

I have been taking piano lessons with Ms. Angela for about 8 years and I am now in 8th grade.

She’s an amazing piano teacher and has inspired me from the very first lesson to enjoy learning how to play the piano and to understand the world of music.

She respects her students’ interests, such as what kind of music they are interested in playing, and encourages all of her students to accomplish their goals and to share their music with those around them. 

Ms. Angela’s piano lessons have not only helped me to become the pianist that I now am, but have also taught me to appreciate music.

The lessons have allowed me to quickly learn how to play other instruments such as the ukulele and violin, due to having studied music in so much depth, to include theory and technique.

I would definitely recommend Ms. Angela to anyone interested in learning how to play the piano.

Angela is a wonderful piano teacher who thrives with both children and adults of any ability.

Her enjoyment and appreciation of music inspires others. She uses different teaching methods to connect with students, encourage practice, and teach all of the components of music that grow a pianist.

She works hard to offer many opportunities to play in front of others and learn the value of performance and is always supportive and encouraging of her performers.

I value her focus on music theory and technique, as my daughter has evolved and is able to take on more challenging music with such ability and enjoyment.

Angela has always been astute to the need of flexibility within lessons, as children’s needs and interests shift with growth, and she welcomes students’ on musical interests.

Angela is an expert pianist in her own right and is always personally challenging herself to grow as a pianist and teacher.

I recommend Angela wholeheartedly!
