Allison is such a great teacher. Very knowledgeable, articulate and patient/caring when it comes to her lessons and teachers. I would recommend her for anyone seriously trying to learn Piano/Music Theory!
Wonderful first lesson! Allison was patient and kind and by the end of the first hour, my daughter was playing a song I could recognize.
Patient, competent and personable. Looking forward to my lessons.
