My daughter started taking lessons with Ms. Miri when she was 5 years old. In less than a year under her instruction, she has learned so much and is truly thriving. Most importantly, she genuinely enjoys her piano lessons, something that many children (myself included when I was young) don’t always experience. A large part of that is due to Ms. Miri’s incredible experience and talent for working with children. She thoughtfully tailors each lesson to the individual child’s age, personality, and learning needs, making every student feel supported and successful. She consistently goes above and beyond, not only during lessons, but also between lessons and through the recitals and special opportunities she creates for her students. We are so grateful for Ms. Miri and the wonderful community she has built for her students and their families. Her passion, dedication, and genuine care shine through in everything she does.
My oldest daughter has been learning piano with Ms Miri for 10+ years and my younger one started a few years ago when she was 4 as well. Ms. Miri is simply the best! She is extremely patient with young kids when they start out, but also pays attention to their posture, hand positions, and feet placement to help students build a solid foundation. She also tailors the curriculum based on students’ needs and interests. Instead of pushing hard pieces to young students that they cannot master – a phenomenon we’ve often seen in regional competitions, Ms Miri finds music based on each student’s ability, interest and development needs, works carefully with them to improve both technical and artistic skills, and cultivates their love in music with fun games, theory learning, listening assignments and endless positive encouragement. We feel so lucky to have found Ms Miri as our piano teacher, mentor and friend!
Our son has been learning piano with Mrs Miri for the past six years, and it has been wonderful to see him grow from a beginner to an intermediate pianist. As a shy child, he initially needed encouragement, and Mrs Miri’s patient and supportive approach helped him become comfortable and confident.
She has instilled dedication, organization, and discipline, and his progress is clearly reflected in both studio and community recitals. Her excellent theory instruction, and listening training is evident through his steady advancement to higher levels of theory exams.
We are grateful for Mrs Miri’s guidance and the positive impact she has had on our son’s musical and personal development. She is an absolutely amazing, dedicated and caring teacher.
My daughter has been playing piano with Ms Miri for about 3 years. Ms Miri is an excellent teacher. She knows each of her students very well. She makes dedicated plan to each kids depending on different levels. She is not just teaching the kids how to play the piano, but also the music theory. She also sends the kids to participate different recitals when she thinks they are ready, which are the great experiences for the kids. She is very knowledgeable, very patient and very caring for every kid. My daughter enjoys her piano class every week and she is willing to practice piano every day, which is very important to the little ones to start building up a serious hobby. We are really lucky to have her as our piano teacher.
Ms. Miri is truly an amazing piano teacher! She is so devoted to each student personally and also cares so much about their progress, even beyond the classroom. She helps set up goals and plans for the students to follow through so that they really have a firm grasp of the piano and the music. She also teaches theories and techniques that transform the music to become alive and tell its story. Ms. Miri is not only a piano teacher, but a teacher of wisdom and life lessons. My son, David, was able to learn many good qualities such as responsibility, care, and persistence. Ms. Miri is truly the best teacher anyone could ask for! So glad we found her!
Ms. Miri has taught our son Julius since he just turned 5 years old. Ms. Miri is a wonderful educator who has motivated Julius with her passion for music, attention to detail, loving persistence and patience. He has made steady progress and was able to read music after a short period of time. He would always tell us that piano lessons are ‘hard’, but was always looking forward to them. We will forever have wonderful memories of his first recital. His big smile and pride after performing his songs on stage. Thank you Ms. Miri!
Ms. Miri is an amazing teacher. She gives great caring to each and every one of her students. She has all of the qualities that any teacher should have: she’s thoughtful about designing lessons based on the interests, goals, and skills of the student and extremely patient. I feel very fortunate to have found such an exceptional teacher for my daughter.
We are extremely impressed with the piano teaching our children have received by Mrs. Miri. They have gained an impressive level of proficiency quickly, but more importantly they are extremely fond of playing at home and look forward to their lessons. This is a clear testament to the excellence of Mrs. Miri as an educator and tutor of young children who wish to play an instrument. She clearly conveys her love of music and playing to the pupils and they catch on quickly. In short, Mrs. Miri is the ideal music teacher!
Our 7-year old daughter has been taking private piano lessons with Miri for the past three years. Miri is very passionate about music and a wonderful educator. Since starting to take lessons with Miri, our daughter has steadily and remarkably progressed not only in her technical abilities, but more importantly in her feelings for the music she is playing. Miri is dedicated, patient and determined at the same time, capable of instilling a sense of discipline in her students. Miri’s attention to dynamics, style and interpretation, not just “playing the notes”, builds on the students’ interest for the piece and grabs their attention and desire to practice and perform. As all parents know, pushing our kids to practice is always a bit of a challenge, but progressively this became less and less necessary as our daughter continued studying with Miri. One cannot ask more than a motivating teacher for your musical kid.
My 9-year-old and 7-year-old sons have been taking piano lesson with Ms. Miri since they were 5 years old. Ms. Miri is a very dedicated teacher who truly cares for the growth in musical knowledge in each of her students. She develops a unique teaching plan to fit each individual skill and learning style and executes it with a friendly and positive approach. She is also very patient and works very well with children. My sons really enjoy having Ms. Miri as their piano teacher. They have learned techniques and gradually learned to enjoy music.
Just wanted to send a heartfelt thank you for the years of music – and so much more – that you’ve brought into our lives. Because of you, we don’t just hear piano in our home – we feel it. You’ve been such a steady, inspiring presence for Nila. Beyond the notes and rhythms, you’ve taught her what dedication and passion really look like. Those are life lessons she’ll carry with her far beyond the piano bench. We’re so grateful for all the time, care, and talent you’ve poured into her growth. Thank you for everything!
Miri is absolutely wonderful music teacher. She designs a specific music plan for each student with different learning styles, and based on their abilities. Our 10 year old son Daniel enjoys playing piano. He started learning piano when he was 6 years old. The most important thing is that he practices every day at home by himself – doesn’t need us to remind him to do so. Our 5 years old daughter Sabrina was asking to learn to play piano since she was 2. Now she had her first three lessons with Miri and she can’t wait until next Thursday to have another class. We know that our children will keep playing the piano for a long long time. I definitely recommend piano lessons with Miri to every parent who thinks and wants to give music as a life-long gift and joy to their children.
Music for me is a great time with my teacher, but I just don’t like the rules: sitting up straight, putting my feet together, curve my fingers. Music is fun, it is listening to your heart, and I mostly like pop music.
Music for me is “California Girls”.
Music for me is fun, easy and hard.
Music for me is sounds that have rhythm and sounds that have pitch, they’re coming together like a song. Some fast songs are high pitched, and some slow songs are low pitched. I like vocal music, music makes me happy.
Music is like the smell of flowers, and music is like getting a new toy.
Music is art with its own color.
Music is not just singing and doing chords, it’s about compassion and letting your feelings out.
Music is everywhere you just have to know how to find it.
Music for me is singing, playing, lots of thoughts and feelings.
Music for me is FUN.
