TESTIMONIALS
"My son has been taking private violin lessons with Minda since he was in Kindergarten at PS41 and he’s now in the 11th grade.
Minda is great with children and treats them like a trusted friend which made my son always feel comfortable with her. At the same time, she is a dedicated teacher and knows when a student is capable of new challenges.
There were several times when I thought a piece of music might be too advanced for my son but Minda knew he could do it and she was always right. There were also many times my son wanted to give up playing the violin and I almost allowed it; but Minda was confident that all the persistence and practicing would pay off and she was right.
My son reached a point where he started to enjoy the music he was playing, and through Minda’s encouragement, he joined the ISO orchestra where he’s now at their highest level, Symphony Orchestra, and has had the opportunity to perform at Carnegie Hall and the MET.
We’re very grateful to Minda for all of her encouragement and for always being able to see the bigger picture when it came to my son’s training as a violinist."

"Andrea is a phenomenal guitar teacher. He’s kind, supportive, and is teaching our daughter a real love of guitar. She looks forward to her lessons and is always proud to show us what she’s learned. I loved my guitar teacher when I was a kid, but I wish I’d had Andrea...!
and from my daughter:
"Andrea’s the best. We’ve been playing guitar since kindergarten, and we always have fun. He has taught me to play chords, power chords and to read notes. He’s funny and nice and he even plays songs for me to see what I want to learn next."
