TESTIMONIALS "Piano lessons with Heidi are fun because she’s funny and she let’s you pick a song and you can learn it by ear." - Evelyn "My special needs daughter suffers from severe anxiety and low self-esteem. She found herself unable to write English and History essays for a whole semester. Heidi's kind, warm, calm, knowledgeable, funny, uplifting attention and personality relaxed her so much that she was able to catch up on all her school's assignments within only 6 sessions. Heidi is a delightful woman who is able to support a sensitive student in just the right way so they can find their confidence to succeed. We highly recommend Heidi!" - Karin
