Marina Dichenko

Over the past academic year, Marina has been instructing my Orchestra pupils at Wakeland HS situated in Frisco, TX. The students are relishing their classes and can be evidently noticed making progress throughout the year. I strongly suggest evaluating Marina as a potential instructor.

Speaking about Ms Dichenko, there aren't enough positive expressions to describe her outstanding teaching skills! For nearly a year, my son has taken lessons from her. He typically experiences anxiety, which sometimes results in challenging behaviour during the classes. He is especially hard on himself when he commits errors, however, Ms Dichenko has been extremely supportive and patient with him. Amazingly, she has discovered a way to keep him inspired and motivated during his learning process. When he necessitates assistance, she plays alongside him, and she consistently concentrates on the positive aspects of his lessons. She is an exceptional communicator with the parents and flexibly adjusts her teaching style according to individual student's requirements. We feel very fortunate to have come across her and to have her in our son's life. She's truly an outstanding teacher!

Marina's violin instruction surpasses all! For three years, our daughter has gained immense knowledge under her guidance. Marina emphasizes both the art and science of music and violin playing. Even through the pandemic, Marina proved adaptable and provided exceptional Zoom lessons. We hold her in the highest regard!

Marina began instructing our daughter on the violin when she was just 5 years old. She has instilled in her the fundamentals of proper technique and music theory. Impressively, our daughter's repertoire expanded to include complete songs after just one semester. Marina is consistently well-prepared, motivates her to practice regularly, and provides lots of encouragement. Both in-person and online lessons have been beneficial to our daughter's progress.

My son has progressed beyond expectations during these challenging quarantine times, all thanks to Marina's exceptional teaching and professionalism. Her abundant patience, flexibility in rescheduling classes, and willingness to go above and beyond have been invaluable. In my opinion, Marina is the finest teacher.
