"I have been taking my 7 year old granddaughter to piano and voice lessons for the past two years with Linda. Every week my granddaughter looks forward to her lessons. It is definitely one of the highlights of her week and mine too — just seeing her so excited to go to the lesson and then work with Linda is truly wonderful. Linda makes it fun while learning (my granddaughter loves all the stickers she has collected for all her accomplishments throughout each lesson) My granddaughter has learned so much which was shown when Linda recently hosted a recital for the family — everyone had a great time and at the conclusion of the recital Linda presented my granddaughter with a super cool trophy that she cherishes... She teaches with no interruptions, dedicating the entire time to her students. Thank you Linda!"

"I am an adult student of Linda's that has sung, but always wanted to accompany myself on piano. Linda has taught me more in these last few years than any music teacher I've had. As I had classical instructors in the past, it would take me months to learn one song. Linda showed me the chord method which I never knew about and I'm able to now accompany myself on piano while singing and I can learn new songs in days now instead of months. Our time together is always professional and she gives her students her full and complete attention. She truly enjoys what she does and it shows in the way I've been able to learn and grow in my music practice."

"There is so much good to be said about having Linda as your vocal instructor. Where do I start? I have been going to Linda once a week for a little over 3 months thus far, and the improvement I have been seeing all thanks to her has been incredible. For a little over a year before finding her, I was doing various vocal exercises I had found on Spotify or a webinar I had purchased that helped grow my voice, but Linda was very easily able to identify what fundamental components I was lacking to TRULY make it grow in the ways I was looking for. Linda taught me the essentials of sight singing and ear training that I have never been able to find elsewhere, and wouldn't be able to do without her guidance. Almost every single lesson week to week, something new clicks with me and I am seeing noticeable improvement (given I practice at home at least a few nights each the week). I cannot emphasize enough on how important what Linda has been teaching me is. My pitch accuracy has been progressing at such a noticeable rate and I am becoming more and more equipped to sing on-pitch when singing a-cappella, and even alongside tracks whether that is a song or vocal exercise online. I run into some bumpy patches when learning new ear training exercises and tricks, but once they click with me they REALLY click and the improvements I notice are incredibly exciting and keeps me very eager in going to my next lesson with her. Beyond Linda being keen on teaching me exactly what it is I need to truly improve my singing, she is incredibly attentive to her students and is very personable. She is an absolute pleasure to talk with whether it's directly about what she teaches, or literally anything else in life. I believe another reviewer says she is like a second mother which I would say is very accurate. Linda is very much an abstract thinker like I am and we are constantly talking about the depths of the psychology behind singing and sharing anecdotes as to why certain aspects are the way they are, which really resonates with me and helps me make sense of it all at deeper levels that you will rarely find anywhere else unless you have a great one-on-one instructor like her. All in all, I am very blessed to have found Linda as my vocal instructor and can't imagine finding anyone else that suites my needs in the ways that she does."

"Linda was a wonderful piano and singing teacher for both of my daughters many years ago. She took the time to truly get to know each of them—their personalities, interests, and strengths—and used that understanding to help them grow and get the most from their lessons. Her kindness, patience, and genuine care meant so much to our family that she became more than a teacher; she became a family friend. It is especially meaningful now to see one of my grandsons beginning piano lessons with Linda. We are grateful for the lasting difference she has made in our family."

"If your kid wants lessons, she is the best in the state. My sister and I took lessons from her for years since we were 8 or 9 and now I am bringing my son to her. She makes it feel like you are just having fun and exploring, not boring and working. Her guidance and support has had a huge rippling effect in my music career as an adult. I have been a full time singer for 10 years and I wouldn't be where I am without her. Hire her."

"I took piano lessons from 7 to 18 years old with Linda and it was always a pleasure to learn from her! She is very professional with how she conducts her lessons and makes sure there are no interruptions at all during lesson time which always helped me to learn better and concentrate. My mom started me off by having me take lessons with Linda for less than an hour once a week and as I got older, I started taking 2 hour lessons because I enjoyed having Linda as my teacher and learning a lot about how I could improve my piano skills. In those 2 hours, she taught me music theory and both the classical and jazz approach to music which was really fun to learn. She made learning how to play songs fun and was always patient in helping me and never made me feel bad about myself whenever I got stuck in one of my pieces. She also has this really cool feature on her piano where you can record your playing on the piano and then you can watch the piano play it back exactly how you did and be able to assess and fix any mistakes made! Linda also helped me get accepted into music programs for college and helped me find the perfect song for my auditions and I ended up loving the piece because it was a joy to play! To conclude my review, I really recommend Linda to anyone who is looking to learn piano or looking to put their kids in piano because she is a really great teacher and also has the best stories to tell!"

"I cannot recommend Linda enough if you are looking for voice or piano lessons! My son and I both take piano lessons from her. She also offers exceptional vocal coaching to my son who aspires to be a singing pianist. She is an outstanding teacher who provides a perfect balance of support and creative freedom, allowing students to express themselves while providing thoughtful guidance. Her deep understanding of music theory and her ability to explain it in a way that's easy to grasp is phenomenal. She breaks down even the most complex ideas into simple, digestible lessons, making the learning process fun and enjoyable for both children and adults. I highly recommend Linda to anyone looking to learn piano or in need of a vocal coach. You won't find a more patient, knowledgeable, and inspiring teacher!"

"Linda is an excellent music teacher. My middle school girl has gone to her piano lessons for the past three years. Through Linda's music education, she learns music and life lessons that other music schools cannot offer: appreciation for music, collaboration, harmony, and how to interpret a composer's message. I highly recommend Linda."

— Andy Bullie

"My daughter has been taking voice lessons from Ms. Linda for over a year now & absolutely enjoys her weekly sessions. The sessions are fun & engaging. Ms. Linda tailors each lesson to my daughter's unique interest & preference, which keeps my kid motivated & engaged. It's a warm & encouraging environment, with my kid feeling comfortable expressing her ideas, getting great feedback around the pieces she chooses & exploring music at her pace."

"Our 3rd grade son has been learning piano and singing with Linda for about a year now after trying two other places with less success, and we couldn't be happier. It's clear that Linda has a wealth of experience working with kids—she's patient, encouraging, and skilled at adapting the lessons to his interests. She seems to enjoy watching him explore and express his creativity, while gently guiding him when needed, and sharing her incredible knowledge. He has learned a lot in his time with her, and this is just the beginning of his journey. The space is so welcoming, and our son always feels comfortable and excited to be there. We started with 30-minute lessons, which have grown into 1.5 productive hours that still seem to whizz by—he'd happily stay all day if he could! He loves the structure of the lessons and, of course, the little goodies he gets—they're such a fun motivator. It's been amazing to watch his confidence grow over time. Seeing him so happy when he sings and proud of what he's learned has been priceless. If you're looking for someone who's fantastic with kids and knows how to make learning both fun and rewarding, we can't recommend Linda enough. It's been a truly positive experience for our whole family!"

"I took lessons with Linda for 16 years, from when I was 6 years old, to when I was 22 years old. I got to know her so well, it almost felt like she was a second mother to me. Not only that, but it seemed like she could understand a lot of my feelings when I was upset, and she and my mother, who passed away a few years ago, had a very good relationship as well. Those 16 years of my life will be something I will never forget. I haven't taken lessons since 2007 but she still remains a great friend of mine and I still keep in touch with her. If any of my friends are thinking about signing their kids up for piano lessons, I would recommend that they go to Linda. Really, she's that good."

"Luis enjoys playing the piano, he's learned so much and he's only played for a few months. I would definitely recommend taking these classes."

"Very nice woman and makes me love piano so much, kids love her too — such an amazing person."

— Matias Cruz

"Wow! I can't believe that Linda taught two of my daughters and now she's teaching my grandson. She's a wonderful and patient and such an encouraging person. I am as a grandfather, sooo very grateful for her skills! I would highly encourage for anyone who may be on the fence, to absolutely go for it! Linda is the best!"
