"Fostering Faith - Achieving Excellence"

Larisa is very a knowledgeable, patient, and inspiring vocal and music teacher. She has the ability to teach voice and piano in many styles. I had singing classes in Slavonic church music with Larisa. I started classes no experience or background in music. I made very good progress with Larisa. She started to train me to sing alto and now I can sing as soprano. With her help, I feel confident in my ability to sing. I greatly appreciate her patience which is helped me to achieve my dream to sing in the church choir. I recommend Larisa to anyone who wants to improve their music or singing.

Ms. Larisa is a godsend for our family. She has instructed our daughter on piano and voice the last 3 years. She is patient with our daughter, and with her dedication to instruction our daughter has grown so much in her musical talents. The bonus is she truly does care about your child as you do. Ms Larisa also understands the importance of growing a child’s talents allows for a healthy outlet. We couldn’t be happier with her. You and your child will be also!

This is for all those parents who are trying to decide, what they should have their child or children do that will give them the tools for a lifetime, that something that will open doors for them in their grand future. That something that will stay with them throughout their entire life. I have a suggestion that you will never regret. In fact you will wish you had done this sooner. It is an introduction to the Best piano/music teacher: Ms. Larisa. She is the Angel of Music, sharing and spreading all this through the keys of a piano. If this doesn’t impress you, she also has the gift of being a “Life Coach”, she can turn the most stubborn critic into a person who will love to play the piano. We enrolled our three oldest children for lessons. One boy and two girls. Ms. Larisa also does wonders with mental and physical exercises to increase the proficiency of a music learning environment. Our youngest boy who is next in line for music lessons, can’t wait till his turn at the keys. He even wants to be able to learn singing while playing piano. In less than 13 months they have gone from having no knowledge of music, to being able to read music at a high level of proficiency and playing the piano and now beginning to even compose their own music. The youngest daughter swore she wouldn’t take the lessons, now runs home after school, catches her breath and then goes directly to the piano and starts practicing, although she still has a tendency to speed the process up, but she has improved ten fold. Ms. Larisa is always increasing the level of complexity for the music that is being played during lessons. Ms. Larisa is one patient teacher, she also goes the extra mile to spend little extra time if required to ensure that they understand what they have completed and what is expected of them. Ms. Larisa has that rare quality that she actually cares about her students and only wishes the best for them and not just getting paid. She loves what she does and is a stellar and skilled teacher.

I am so happy to have been referred to Ms. Larisa. My daughter is young and shy and had been losing interest in the piano with her previous teacher. She was hesitant but Larisa has been so patient and encouraging that my daughter bonded well with her after a short time and is back to loving the piano playing it multiple times a day. While her skills are advancing, I appreciate Larisa’s attention to ensure she is learning proper technique in addition to playing.

Mrs. Cary has taught piano to our son for the last two years. He had never played the piano before and has made considerable progress in two years.
Mrs. Cary teaches the mechanics of playing the piano, reading music, proper posture, and she also mentors her students through encouraging words and inspiration.
