Ms. Candice has the most phenomenal, comprehensive music program we could have ever hoped for! She not only has the BEST music teachers but goes through such an effort to truly cultivate the musician in each child. The teacher we have, Ms. Christina is so kind, thorough, encouraging and beyond talented. Our daughter adores her time with Ms. Christina and we noticed such incredible growth in her piano playing within the first few months.
When you sign up for weekly lessons the Musicians in the Making program includes a monthly group lesson (currently on zoom) with other children of the same musical levels. Our daughter loves these monthly lessons. It makes her feel more as if she's part of a team rather than going through just individual lessons. Additionally, Ms. Candice always picks a composer for the year and many pieces taught throughout the year are centered around this composer.
This past year Ms. Candice chose a living composer which was such a priceless experience. She had several zoom meetings where her students got to MEET the composer they were studying and learned various techniques to composing their own pieces. Then at the end of year, during our in person recital, Ms. Candice flew out our living composer and students got to play their pieces for her and actually meet the composer in person.
It was truly a once in a lifetime opportunity. The list goes on and on, but one thing is for sure- Musicians in the Making is a gem of a school! We are SO happy to have found Ms. Candice and this special school of hers!

Musicians in the Making is just an AMAZING school. My 6 year old daughter had never played an instrument before and started with Musicians in the making more than 6 months back. And she has progressed so much. Ms. Christina has been absolutely amazing. Even though the classes are remote, she makes the class enjoyable with her upbeat and engaging personality, which is really tough for a 6 year old : Ms. Candice has created a program which is extremely well planned and balanced for kids.
In addition to the weekly classes, she has periodic group classes, occasional guest musicians that talk to students about creating and playing with music, managing performance jitters n so much more. And I cannot forget the periodic recitals, which gives all students such a supportive environment to showcase their hardwork and also learn from their peers. Its truely a 'Musicians in the making' program and would absolutely recommend it to anyone looking for such a program for their budding musicians

Our first kid started piano lesson with Ms. Choi when he was 6 years old. She strikes a good balance of making piano fun for kids and still pushes them to practice. My kid always enjoys her lessons and they were not boring him even with his short attention span. After a couple of years, we sent our second kid to her as well. Although they have different personalities, Ms. Choi was able to keep both of them engaged and interested.
Besides weekly lessons, she also organizes group lessons so they can see other kids who also like piano. She has a true passion for piano which is contagious for the little kids. It has been 4 years now, and we are very happy with Ms. Choi as our children's piano teacher.

Our children, ages 4 and 7, have been taking piano lessons from Mrs. Choi for almost 8 months now. She takes piano to another level and is very thoughtful in incorporating all aspects of music such as notes, rhythm, pitch, and emotions in such a fun way! She teaches piano and music as a whole. It has become an outlet for our son who rarely likes to express his emotions and has been a creative outlet to our shy daughter.
She is great with kids.always enthusiastic and creative. She is a musical genius and it's obvious music is her passion. We are so grateful to have her in this journey to mold our children's passion for music and piano. We are so thankful to have her as a piano teacher. We have had others but she is by far the best! No reason to look elsewhere. Thank you Ms. Choi for following your passion and making a significant impact not only in my children's lives but to our family as well! We think the world of you. - Tania R.

Our son started with Ms. Choi in September last year, at the age of 5. Less than a year into his lessons with her, he has developed a love for music, an understanding of rhythm and a preliminary understanding of notes. He is quite shy but for some reason is very open and playful with her. What we really liked about Ms. Choi's classes is that she is very patient with him (and us) and takes the time to build up technique (sight-reading, using the right finger position) rather than just having him learn the piece and play it by rote.
Her monthly group performance sessions along with the summer/spring recitals have helped him overcome his stage fright and he often wants to be the 1st to play now! Ms. Choi is also very accommodating, even conducting classes remotely when we were on an extended vacation. UPDATE: its now been 2.5 years and our son can now entertain guests with his piano skills.
Not only is he not shy, he would look forward to playing piano if we see one somewhere. We all know how learning an instrument can get mundane / difficult after a while. Happy to say that the way Mrs. Choi sets her classes and gives motivation to the students - our son looks forward to playing the piano more today than what he did 2 years back.
