"Gina Barton is a fabulous teacher.  She relates well to students.  She is particularly great with small children because of her ability to get to their level.  She is very musical and expressive as a pianist.  I have had the privilege to work with her as a professional singer.  She has great musical instincts and the ability to interpret all styles of music.  You should consider yourself fortunate to get the chance to work with her."

                                                                                                                                                                                                                                   --Fanchesca R., Professional pianist and vocalist


"This is a fabulous music studio. There are keyboards for the students to all play together interactively with a camera on Gina's keyboard so they can see what notes she's playing and how to learn the proper technique. She uses dry erase boards that are also magnetic so the students can draw the notes and use magnets as well. It's genius! She's very good with the students and very patient too. Best piano teacher around!"  
                                                                --Michelle D.

"Gina is a great teacher who knows her stuffs and can work with kids. She can motivate our daughter and teaches her cool techniques. We can see progress in our daughter. I recommend her for anyone looking to find great piano teacher for their kids."

                                                               --Theron G.

"I loved being a student at this studio!  Besides Mrs. Barton being a one-in-a-million teacher (literally), her studio has so many cool things to offer that just set her apart from all other teachers. I just loved my experiences with her. I improved so much and had fun at the same time."

"As Suzuki violin students, I felt my boys needed a musical avenue to extend their note reading.  Mrs. Barton focus on note reading has been wonderfully successful.  The taped lessons each week have put the responsibility on my sons.  When a question arises, they can play the tape to review what was said.  We love it."                                                  --Cazantha M.                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                              

 

"My boys have taken piano lessons from Mrs. Barton for four years now, and as a parent, I can't express adequately my gratitude to our wonderful piano teacher as she has transformed my boys into piano music lovers.  My children enjoy learning music, they read notes, learn music theory in master class, and look forward to piano recitals.  Mrs. Barton holds my kids responsible for their practice and empowers them to take responsibility for their own learning.  She also expects a lot from her students which motivates them to excel in their abilities and beyond."

"Gina is a really talented teacher who really took me to a new level musically.  Progress is part of her program.  There are many teachers out there who are just doing it for a job but aren't really good at it.  I had a few like that, but Gina loves what she does and puts everything into it.  She also expects you to practice and gives you all the tools to know what to do when you're away from your lessons.  I've become the pianist I hoped I would become and am just growing on that."

                                                          --Dr. Joe D.
 

 

"Having my son's piano lessons via video has proven to be a great way to keep up on lessons when we cannot be there.  Being able to watch and rewatch different parts of the lesson is especially useful. When watching himself and how his hands/technique look on video makes it easier to comprehend and 'get."'

"Our family absolutely loves Gina.  All THREE of our boys are progressing rapidly .  Gina has the ability to tune in to their individual needs.  Our boys have learned  more in the months that we have been with Gina than all the years I studied piano."

"Gina is an exceptional teacher.  She motivates my son to learn piano, theory, and technique while playing pieces that my son finds interesting."

 "My two kids have studied piano with Gina for 1 year.  I am totally amazed by their progress.  I used other piano instructors' studios with my older kids, and I never saw the QUALITY of instruction given like Gina demonstrates.  She encourages parent participation, incentives to the children, & challenges them to memorize pieces, read notes, and intervals. My Children have made more progress in 1 year than my older kids did in three years."

"Kenzington loves the music  note boards.  She uses them to figure out what note to start on or just to fiddle around with."
