"We feel incredibly fortunate to have found Mr. A—he’s been our daughter’s very first piano teacher, and she’s been studying with him for almost four years now.
Mr. A teaches with the perfect mix of patience, encouragement, and professionalism. We appreciate his unique teaching style—from his thoughtful choice of materials to his personalized practice strategies—all of which are engaging and effective. He pays close attention to detail and makes sure students build a solid foundation. He also provides clear practice notes and recordings of each lesson, which have been incredibly helpful for practice at home.
We especially appreciate how he supports the whole student. When our daughter feels frustrated, he offers gentle, thoughtful guidance to help her navigate those moments and stay positive.
If you’re looking for a piano teacher who is musically brilliant, emotionally supportive, and truly invested in your child’s growth, look no further than Mr. A. As a pianist myself, I can honestly say—he’s the teacher I always wished I had."

"My son had tried three piano teachers before we decided to stay with James. James corrected my son’s postures that the other teachers did not care. He taught lots of piano fundamentals and pointed out the details that other teachers may not pay attention to. After just several months, my son, for the first time, played piano in a right way. He records every lessons and provided online comments my son can refers to if needed. He recommended personalized training strategies. He is always supportive for various levels of competitions. My son really learned a lot from him in piano and enjoyed lessons with him. And the most important is, my son keeps piano practice without being pushed by me. So, James has the magic to motivate his student in playing piano. We are glad to have James as my son’s piano mentor and teacher."

"James is an excellent piano teacher—patient, knowledgeable, and well-organized. My son began his piano journey at age 6 with James, and now at 11, after trying different teachers, James remains his favorite. That's why we've returned to Anemone Piano Studio. What I appreciate most is that James provides clear and concise instructions for homework. This gives self-motivated students a clear path to follow, while also providing parents with the guidance they need to support students who may lack self-motivation."

The lessons are conducted on Steinway piano in a very professional set up. Our son made a lot of progress, thanks to James, in a very short time and got a lot of support to apply to college in music performance."
