Testimonial by Grace Siu & Christopher Hansen
Our daughter, Ava Hansen, started piano lessons at NCSM last year and we are very pleased with her progress. Her teacher has a combination of kindness, patience, and discipline that makes a difference. Ava is learning both to play well and to enjoy performing. We are very glad we enrolled her at NCSM
Testimonial by Shu-hui Chen
I really appreciate the teacher’s energy put into his teaching. My son who is currently taking violin lesson feels the challenge to improve his skill constantly. The bondage between the teacher and my son is also a very important factor that stimulates my son’s interest in violin

What we like about NCSM is the exceptional level of the faculty. This guarantees that every student’s needs can be met, from beginner to very high proficiency. We also like the emphasis on performance and technique, and the frequent recitals in a professional but warm and encouraging atmosphere
