Evan is an exceptionally professional individual who is capable of maintaining Gabby's attention on her studies. Despite her sociable nature, Gabby displays great admiration for Evan's expertise and remarkable skill. She listens with great attentiveness to everything he imparts and instructs her with. Undoubtedly, Evan is an exceptional pianist, teacher, and a wonderful individual. Our family is truly blessed to have found him as Gabby's piano mentor.

Evan conducts an exceptionally professional business. In January 2018, my son commenced taking lessons from him, and Evan readily incorporates feedback from both parent and student to ensure each individual enjoys an exceptional experience.

Since he was five years old, my son has been receiving piano lessons from Evan. Now at the age of 12, he is still passionate about piano just as when he began. Evan creates an enjoyable learning experience resulting in utmost satisfaction. I strongly suggest Evan.

For just over a year, Evan has been teaching piano lessons to our two boys, aged 11 and 7. Thanks to his meticulous teaching approach, they have both made tremendous progress and have developed excellent sight reading skills. Evan customizes the lessons for each child based on age and ability, and is open to making changes to ensure optimal learning. Additionally, I have been taking adult piano lessons with Evan for a few months and have gained a lot of knowledge from him while thoroughly enjoying the experience. Evan offers the option to come to our home for an extra fee, which is still reasonable, and he is prompt in arriving. His online scheduling system is also very convenient for any necessary make-up lessons at his studio. For anyone in search of piano lessons, we highly recommend Evan for both children and adults.
