Becky, Parent of Online Student

"We highly recommend Mr. Jose Berrones as a violin instructor. He has been wonderful working with our 9-year-old daughter for the past two years. Not only is he experienced, but his style and adaptation to our daughter's unique needs has been exceptional. It is evident that he is passionate and committed to his work!

 

Mr. Berrones has been flexible to also meet instruction needs with in-person and virtual flexibility as well as integration of theory instruction. Our only regret is not finding him sooner!" - Becky
