Testimonials

“I was able to thrive and fall in love with playing all over again, and it was thanks to Carmen's encouragement . . . She creates an inspiring environment, which allows you to improve and gain confidence in your performance.”

— Moineau Shin Binon, student

“Carmen is a loving, nurturing teacher who can motivate students with her passion and patience. She has a way with children that nourishes their love and appreciation of music and theory. She talks with students, at their level. Her stickers are the best.”

— Line Brassard, parent

“It might be possible for many instructors to spot the weaknesses of a performer; however, Carmen's capability to point to the root cause and propose an exercise to address the weakness is what makes her an excellent mentor.”

— Arshan Naji, student
