All 3 of our children have gone to Cheryl at some time from the ages of 4 to 11 years old. She has been amazing with them and they have learned a ton from her. She compliments their school band teachings very well and our kids always seen to be ahead of most of their classmates because of the extra work with Cheryl. We highly recommend Cheryl!

We have been going to Ms Cheryl for the last 4 plus years. She is excellent and our children have become quite the little muscians! Our 10 yr old was just chosen to become a member of the advanced band at his school. A great accomplishment for a child in his grade. Our two younger children love their weekly music class too! She is great with kids and we highly recommend her!
