What families say
Trusted by Rochester piano families.
Our son Isaac loves learning piano from Mr. Joe! He is in his 3rd year of lessons with him. When Mr. Joe decided to start private lessons after leaving a music school, Isaac wanted to follow him. Isaac told us "I don't want to learn from anyone else!" Mr. Joe takes an interest in Isaac's life to build rapport. He is easy-going but also has high expectations which is a perfect fit for our son.

Joe is a great teacher. He's taught my two sons for over 6 years and is good with all ages. He makes it fun without letting my kids run the show, so they actually learn :) I love the convenient options for in-home, at Joe's place, or virtual. Highly recommend to anyone!
Kathryn K.
