Upon reaching out to Stella regarding lessons for my six-year-old, she displayed exemplary responsiveness and professionalism. Sadly, the geographical distance was too great, resulting in our inability to proceed with the lessons. Had it not been for the distance predicament, I absolutely would have canvassed her services.

Stella is an exceptional piano instructor! As an adult retiree who recently embarked on piano lessons, I have made more progress in six months with Stella than in the previous two years. Stella's instruction has enlightened me on the dynamics and coloration of music pieces, offering practical exercises that aid in achieving the nuances that make each piece stand out. Even at my beginner/intermediate level, practicing with Stella's insight brings a great sense of satisfaction. Having a keen sense of my preferences, Stella deftly includes theory, technique, and musicality in each lesson, resulting in measurable growth and consistent joy in playing.

With an impressive ability to quickly identify problems after just one glance or listen, Stella's lessons come to life with her clever analogies. Each session covers a broad spectrum of finger strength, dexterity, ear training, techniques, and musical pieces. Her in-depth focus on pedaling techniques was absolutely vital to my growth as a musician. Overall, Stella possesses every quality that an exceptional piano instructor should have, including a command of technical and musical skills, patience, punctuality, and kindness. All of these components—just like techniques, emotions, perseverance, accuracy, and joy in music—are integrated seamlessly into her teaching style to create a beautiful music experience.
