Testimonials

“I was with Music House for several years, and nowhere in that time did I consider going anywhere else. Nicole was an excellent piano teacher; she was patient and very instructive, and evidently very passionate about her teaching. Everyone in Music House is very friendly, and I always felt very comfortable when attending lessons. I not only learned a lot musically from Music House, but also really enjoyed my lessons. It was by far the best place I attended for musical lessons, and I highly recommend it to anyone considering lessons.” ~Sarah Erwin

“Our daughter has been studying piano with Nicole for 15 months. In that time, we've been very impressed by her progress. She recently completed her first Royal Conservatory exam and we were all extremely pleased with the results. Nicole is a caring and motivating teacher with a real talent for keeping her students engaged and interested as they advance. We would highly recommend her.” ~Jennifer David

“Our two sons studied piano and guitar with Nicole and Richard at Music House over a period of 8 years. Throughout this time, Nicole and Richard were consistently professional, encouraging and creatively skillful in helping our children develop their musical abilities and exposing them to many styles of music. Their experience was enhanced by Nicole and Richard's individual and personal attention, the guided preparation they received for the Royal Conservatory Exams, their participation in the Christmas, Spring and Senior Residence Recitals and the encouragement to write and share their own music. Our sons are now in university but the musical skills and appreciation they developed under Nicole and Richard's guidance are a testament to Music House's excellent instructors and positive commitment to its students.” ~Josie Mazzilli & Kip Daechsel

“I spent ten wonderful years taking piano lessons with Nicole. Music House offered a caring and friendly learning environment that motivated me to develop my performance skills as well as explore my creativity. Ultimately, I was able to utilize these learned skills while completing my Bachelor of Fine Arts in Music Composition at York University.” ~Mark Savoia, former Music House student, http://tobesound.com

“Our family has been coming to Music House since 2003, and we have recommended it to many friends over the years. Although our two boys have very different learning styles, Nicole has been able to teach them both very effectively by tailoring her teaching to each one individually. When our older son has taken his piano exams, Nicole has offered extra practice sessions, free of charge, to help him feel as prepared as possible. The boys enjoy performing at the two recitals each year and we enjoy seeing not only our children but those of the other families who continue to attend year after year.” ~Ronni Hannon

“I contacted Nicole for piano lessons in September 2009 and have been a student ever since. I have no background in music and Nicole has been nothing but patient and also extremely determined as my teacher. Nicole, Catherine and Richard are friendly, professional and always encouraging with their students. I would definitely recommend the Music House to anyone looking for a great learning experience and environment.” ~Colette Jackson
