"Our six year old son truly loves music, and was asking us if he could take piano lessons for a number of months. Despite all of that enthusiasm, we tried a couple of different teachers who were highly recommended by some of the local music schools, but our son didn't really connect with any of them. So, when we learned that Levon was offering piano lessons to children, we immediately signed him up. We have known Levon to be an exceptional musician, so we were expecting our son to learn really good fundamentals, which he has. On the other hand, we were pleasantly surprised that such a serious musician made learning so much fun. It is clear that Levon has children close to our son's age, with whom he is also sharing his love for music. As a result, Levon has been our son's piano teacher for more than a year, and will hopefully continue to inspire him and many others for years to come."

โAs an adult I have attempted to play the piano three time in the past. Levon is the first teacher to make it feel like an achievable goal. His relaxing style, as well as his emphasis on enjoying the process of making music (while also teaching the necessary fundamentals), has helped me feel fearless and completely capable. I imagine he is equally easy-going yet effective with children. He is simply a kind and gentle person who seems to derive sincere pleasure from helping others learn, no matter their level.โ

โI highly recommend Levon Mikaelian as an excellent piano teacher, particularly for children just starting to learn to play the instrument. Our daughter, age 7, really enjoys taking lessons with Levon. I was looking for a patient instructor who would inspire our daughter to learn, and his style of teaching makes the lessons fun, while teaching both technique and theory.โ

โMy 13 y/o has been taking lessons with Levon. For being such an accomplished musician, Levon really has excellent patience and technique for teaching a beginner like my son! He teaches good posture--how to properly hold your hands and body without strain--a mindful attitude as well. His approach is very gentle yet very effective. He has developed a sense of confidence and awareness in Mikael. My son leaves each lesson excited about what heโs accomplished and he looks forward to his next session. Thanks to Levon, I believe my son will have a life-long appreciation for music and the enjoyment it brings.โ
