Testimonials

"Marina is a wonderful piano teacher. She is passionate and very motivating. Her teaching method is very effective, based on structured learning and students’ musical interests. My older son has been taking piano lessons with her for five years, and under her guidance, he achieved Level 5 of the Royal Conservatory of Music.
My younger son started piano one year ago, and he is always looking forward to his next lesson.
Marina is very good with children. She is warm and affectionate and knows how to stimulate their interest in music.
We are fortunate to have her as a teacher, mentor and friend and highly recommend her."

Emilia Barbu


“Marina is wonderful! She has patience for all children and especially our "artist" boy. He started with her at 4 years old, and she tailored the classes to keep him interested and engaged. She has found songs that keep him entertained and allowed him to expand on his inner "composer"! As he continues in music, she continues to keep up to date with his likes and interests to keep him focused! Her caring and loving personality is also so thoughtful to siblings, and everyone around her can feel her love for them and music!
I highly recommend Marina and look forward to many more years listening to her as she teaches my children!
