Our daughter looks forward to her piano lesson each week because her teacher is creative and makes learning piano a fun experience. Her teacher finds music that interests her and challenges her at the same time. Also, Meridee Winters as a company is super responsive and accommodating.

We absolutely love our piano instructor from Meridee Winters School of Music. She is so patient and understanding, it has been a blessing in disguise! Even with the pandemic, they made it work virtually and it was the one constant thing they had in this ever changing world. It made such a difference. So thankful! Looking forward to years of music!

From the first phone call, I have been so impressed by the efficiency, kindness, and professionalism of Meridee Winters School of Music. They took the time to ask in-depth questions in order to pair me with a teacher, and the match was perfect. The lessons were always fun and engaging, even as a college student. Communication was straightforward and billing was very transparent. Definitely the best music school I have worked with!

Our two kids have been taking online drum lessons from Mr. Sam at Meridee Winters for a couple months now and it has been wonderful. Mr. Sam is an excellent teacher: he is always patient, committed and very encouraging. Our kids are building basic skills without getting bored thanks to the continuous encouragements from their teacher and the fun materials used for the lessons. He provides them with homework weekly which has been very helpful. Ms. Carolann has been helping us from the beginning with everything including scheduling, finding the right teacher, and follow ups. The communications with her and other stuff are always smooth and warm. We are very pleased with the lessons and school!

My Daughter has been taking lessons for about a year now with April and it's been awesome. She has become such a good songwriter and singer. The school keeps me up to date on everything going on and April has been a wonderful teacher. Their online program is great. I'd recommend them for all styles of music and singing.

We are doing piano and voice lessons for my daughter for the past 2-3 years with Ms Tiffany Nack at Meridee winters school of music and are very pleased with the experience. Ms Tiffany is so passionate and knowledgeable, very committed to make sure the concepts are well understood. My daughter has made so much progress and has developed so much love for learning music. Would highly recommend our teacher and the school!

We enrolled our son in Meridee winters school of music last year and the experience with the teachers/support staff has been amazing. Ms CarolAnn is the best teacher to teach violin as she is patient and is able to identify what needs to be fixed even in a virtual class. Their Halloween and spring events are my personal favorite.

I cannot say enough about our amazing experience with Meridee Winters! We have had the opportunity to do both in-person and virtual lessons with them and they flowed from one to the other seamlessly. The approach is kid-focused and fun. They make room for creativity and self-expression as well as music theory and technique. My son has had such a wonderful experience, that now my husband is taking lessons through Meridee Winters as well.

We were thrilled with Sarahs performance at the Halloween show. This was a complicated piece and Amanda worked hard with Sarah to pull it all together and prepare her, not only to know the piece, but to have the courage to perform it in front of the audience. Sarah loves her lessons and has progressed nicely Amanda has the right amount of patience, toughness (and lots of rewards) to keep Sarah engaged and progressing. She has special bond with our daughter, Sarah.

My 13 year old daughter has been taking lessons here since Kindergarten, and my 11 year old son started two years ago. We've had a few different teachers-- and (the teacher) we have now is simply wonderful-- but the constant variable is the devotion of the school's leadership to growing kids' inner shine. We enjoy interacting with the staff who makes it obvious that meeting us wherever we are is their priority. There is no one who would not thrive in this school because Meridee wisely understands how special each budding musician really is.

My children (4 & 6) have had a wonderful experience with their teacher...and look forward to their weekly lesson. He arrives on time and ready to go with lots of energy to keep the kids focused. We have seen incredible progress and the kids remind us when its time to practice each day.

I can't say enough good things about the boys' piano lessons! I am astounded by how much they are learning! They are only 8 and 5! Not only are they learning and memorizing music, they are learning theory (in an enjoyable way!), they are playing by ear - - but best of all, they are truly enjoying music. It fills my heart to suddenly hear notes playing on the piano! No prodding, no bribing - they just play.
I also am impressed by the recitals. I can't believe my kids just get up on stage and play! That is a tribute to the confidence they gain in their lessons as well as the fun, relaxed, and supportive vibe of the recital. And they have such a great format!

We have been with Meridee Winters School of Music for 9 years and 2 children. Their teachers are caring and patient, and always inspire creativity. Meridee Winters teachers always kept lessons fun and interesting by incorporating our childrens' favorite pop/rock music, songwriting, and improvisation into their lessons. While neither of my children will be professional musicians, what they've learned through music (technique, the creative process, and overcoming the anxiety of performing, among other skills) will benefit all aspects of their life.
