“My 10 year old son has been very interested in getting guitar lessons for about a year now, so I finally decided to do some research to find the best music school in the area.I asked some of his classmates for recommendations, and a few mentioned taking their children for lessons a Northwest School of Music, an that they really liked the instructors there. I read some reviews and went to visit one afternoon before my son got out of school. I spoke with Manny Martinez, the instructor who does the guitar lessons, and I could tell that he loves what he does. He has lots of experience and fantastic credentials and just seemed like a great teacher to learn from.My son has been going to him since January now. My son has been having a great time and has a real enthusiasm for it. Manny has done a great job in helping him to advance and develop his skills, and my son has been keeping up his end of the bargain (practice!) due in part to his instructors focus on making it really enjoyable. It’s great to see my son devoting time to practicing because he loves impressing his instructor with his progress.Overall, I’m very happy I chose to sign my son up for lessons at the Northwest School of Music. The staff are fantastic, and they really motivate and encourage students. My daughter is interested in learning guitar as well now that her brother is having so much fun with it, and I’ll be signing her up in the fall. The lessons are priced well, and the quality of instruction my child receives is worth every penny.”

“Nicole has taught our daughter piano for the past two years. Ashley is nine and enjoys playing the piano very much. I believe Nicole has contributed to this enjoyment by keeping the lessons low stress and yet very productive.Nicole challenges Ashley and as a result she excels at her piano skills(compared to her siblings at this age). I feel Nicole is a natural teacher working with patience and stimulation. I highly recommend her as a piano teacher.”

“Gillian is very dependable and always is timely. The kids have learned more about playing the piano and knowing more music theory. I’m impressed by her professionalism and pleasant demeanor with the kids. She has great techniques in helping the kids break down a song into smaller obtainable parts to help them learn the song correctly.”

“Our teacher from Northwest School of Music is very patient; my daughter loves having her as a piano teacher. It is very convenient to have her come to the house for a reasonable fee. She is prompt and flexible, and easy to get ahold of. I can’t wait for my son to start lessons with her. We are also looking forward to the new studio in the works.”
