In the almost ten years since Brandy became our pianist at The Community of Christ the Servant Church, Brandy has matured into an excellent performer and accompanist. She works well with the choir and the minister and has a strong work ethic. We are pleased that Brandy has stayed on with our congregation for all these years

Brandy’s approach to teaching our 8 year old daughter the guitar has been patient, respectful and methodical, yielding rapid progress. Within a few months, she was playing simple melodies confidently and showed a clear grasp of the fundamentals of reading notation. Brandy’s scheduling structure is great for busy parents, there is a simple way to arrange makeup lessons if you have to miss due to overbooking. Overall, we feel that we made a great choice for our daughter in choosing Brandy as a teacher for her very first stages of learning

Brandy has been our piano/guitar teacher for over 5 years. She is an excellent instructor providing a very positive, calm environment for the kids to learn. She has been more then accommodating in meeting our schedule changes over the past years. I would highly recommend her as a music instructor for her knowledge and teaching skills.

“My daughter has piano lessons with Brandy once a week and always wants to go. Brandy’s attention to detail is interesting to watch especially as she makes it so much fun for her. You really need a lot of patients when working with youngsters and she definitely has what it takes. My daughter enjoys taking lessons with her, and I’m very impressed with the way she teaches her.

I have been taking lessons with Brandy for over a year now. I have improved remarkably in that time. I credit Brandy for recognizing my weaknesses and directing me to work on exercises that proficiently developed my talent.

My 7.5 yr old daughter has been taking classes with Brandy for over 2.5 years now. Brandy is extremely patient and a great piano teacher. My daughter has learnt so much in such a little time and enjoys playing the piano.

Brandy is a warm, caring, and knowledgeable piano teacher. She tailors lessons to the abilities and needs of each student, teaching music theory with the practical playing of the piano. As a student Brandy always helps me achieve an understanding of the piece of music I'm working on. The studio is spacious and a inviting place to learn.

My daughter has been taking piano lessons from Brandy for 6 years, and we couldn't be happier! In fact, my husband now takes guitar lessons from her too. She really personalizes the lessons- makes them fun in part by allowing the student to choose music that keeps them interested! She is a calm, encouraging teacher and really knows what she's doing!

Prior to signing up with Brandy finding a guitar instructor for my daughter had been difficult. While previous instructors had been fine one moved and and another decided to stop teaching. After interviewing several instructors my daughter decided on Brandy. Her mix of rock and roll attitude, combined with a patient and straight forward teaching style has helped keep my daughters interest and grow her love of playing the guitar. Brandy is extremely organized and an excellent communicator.

The quality of my daughter's playing continues to improve and her desire to practice has become less of a chore and something she 'sometimes' even embraces. I highly recommend Brandy, and believe she is a great role model for young women interested in playing an instrument.

Brandy teaches my daughter piano and my son guitar. They love working with her and both consider her a great teacher. They enthusiastically look forward to their recitals and I love watching their talent grow under her tutelage. I couldn't be happier about the general love of music she inspires in them.

Her piano lesson is fun and comprehensive, Brandy will make sure the class is very individual-specific and suitable for all level learners.
