Andrea is an exceptional piano instructor! Her passion for music and teaching truly shines through in every lesson. She is patient, encouraging, and able to explain even complex techniques in a way that's easy to understand. Andrea customizes her approach to each student, helping build both confidence and skill while keeping lessons enjoyable and inspiring. If you're looking for a piano teacher who genuinely cares about your growth and makes learning a rewarding experience, I can't recommend Andrea highly enough!

My son has been taking piano lessons with Ms Andrea, and we couldn't be happier. She is incredibly knowledgeable, truly an expert in her craft, and yet remains so humble and patient in the way she teaches. She understands how to bring out the best in her students and always adapts to their pace and learning style. She is very accommodating, and creates a positive, motivating environment that has helped our son grow tremendously. We are grateful to have found her. A truly outstanding teacher, highly recommend!

Our son has been taking piano lessons with Ms Marsavonian for a few years now, and we couldn't be happier with the progress he's made. She is an exceptionally gifted and talented pianist who plays with remarkable skill, passion, and enthusiasm — qualities that clearly shine through in her teaching. Any child would be fortunate to learn from her, and getting to know her is a blessing in itself. She truly has a special gift for inspiring a love of piano.

We are so glad we found Ms. Marsavonian as our Daughter's piano teacher. Our daughter was taking piano classes for about 4 years as she was growing up elsewhere before we moved to this area and she has been the student of Ms. Marsavonian for over a year now — we can see tremendous improvement in her skill. I am no expert but I can see Ms. Marsavonian's teaching style and technique really focuses on student mastering the music and instrument. I have also noticed she encourages student not to give up but at the same time not hard on self while practicing. Gives nice life lessons in the process to student for personality development. I strongly recommend Ms. Marsavonian and we are glad she is our daughter's teacher.

Andrea is AMAZING..... Decades of experience and a wonderful teacher. Our daughter had studied under a few other teachers for years but within the first month of working with Andrea I noticed a HUGE improvement in her playing as well as the complexity of the pieces she was undertaking. Andrea is a very serious teacher who works hard to advance students.

We have been very blessed to have Miss Andrea as our daughter's piano teacher. She is an extremely talented pianist and excellent teacher. Our daughter has acquired a solid foundation and understanding of the piano as well as music. Miss Andrea has helped her to express herself creatively through music with the real knowledge that only can be taught by a real and true artist.

Andrea Marsavonian is the most wonderful and caring piano teacher we have ever met. She is compassionate and dedicated to her profession. We are truly blessed to have found her.

Andrea Marsavonian is amazing. I absolutely recommend her for music, piano, and private instruction, whether for you, for your kids, for your parents, or for anyone! My time at Andrea Marsavonian's School of Music was a complete joy. Rarely will you ever find a teacher who is the whole package: both patient and pleasant, humorous yet no-nonsense; fun, yet very disciplined. Andrea, I can very safely say, is my favorite instructor I have EVER had.

Ms. Andrea teaches my daughter Piano and what a wonderful teacher she is. She is very knowledgeable and very good with kids. My daughter loves her.

She is the best teacher I've ever met — she's so good. She does not get irritated easily, she is very well trained and has a great personality!

My name is Pat. I am a retired Lt Col from the USAF and it is my distinct pleasure and honor to recommend Andrea Marsavonian as a piano teacher. Andrea was my teacher for two years when I lived in Virginia. She is simply awesome. Andrea is an exceptionally talented pianist with perfect pitch who can play anything. I remember when she worked with me to put together a customized arrangement of Danny Boy, my father's favorite song. She helped me master it in time for dad's surprise 70th birthday party — that was one of the few times I saw dad cry. Her lessons were never dull or a chore. She made them fun and I always looked forward to the next one. Young or old; beginner through advanced; classical, jazz, honky-tonk or pop — Andrea is the teacher for you.

Ms. Marsavonian is at the top of her class as an instructor. She has the patience of an angel and takes the time to ensure that her pupils understand every phase of their lessons. She hears everything — every note and nuance of the music she so obviously loves. She not only teaches her pupils to play but also instills a love of music in each one who happens to come to her class. She is outstanding and anyone having the opportunity to learn from her has been blessed.

Ms. Andrea Marsavonian does not just teach — she creates interest in learning piano. My son started taking piano lessons with Ms. Andrea in January 2012. I never have had to ask him to practice. He dashes off to his piano as soon as he comes back from her class. He is only seven. Her constant encouragement did not just create interest in learning music, but also to explore and create something new. He composed his own song in July 2013. We are so glad that she took my son as her student.

Andrea Marsavonian represents the exception to the rule in music instruction. In addition to rendering world-class piano instruction, Andrea and her School of Music provide students of all levels positive support and musical development. She makes it a point to celebrate her student's individuality and creativity. Andrea Marsavonian is not just the "real deal" — what she renders is what I call the "Total Package." She not only develops piano students, she helps them become better individuals. I cannot say enough kind words about this very special person. Andrea Marsavonian quite literally makes the world a better place one note at a time. Make the call. It will be one of the best decisions you ever make.

I have been taking piano lessons with Ms. Marsavonian for about one year, and I really enjoy lessons with her. I really appreciate the amount of care and detail she puts into her lessons, and because of that I have improved exponentially. She has an amazing and experienced piano background that she is willing to share and teach in depth. She is also involved with organizations such as the National Guild of Piano Teachers.

I have had several music teachers in my life and none compare to her. Kind, patient, skillful and genuinely interested in her student's growth.

Andrea is a wonderful pianist, accomplished composer, and a great teacher. I highly recommend her!

Great teaching!

Andrea Marsavonian has an incredible talent. She fills the hearts and souls of her students with love and discipline towards music. Her skills are extremely advanced, and she teaches at every level. She transformed me into a much more prospective pianist in terms of jazz, and also widened my improvisation skills and technique tenfold. Andrea's own compositions and arrangements inspire me as a musician. I would highly recommend her to all serious prospective musicians, as well as beginners.

From the first lesson I had with Ms. Andrea, I knew it was going to be a challenge. I was the most distracted child ever — I would twirl around on the piano bench, always want to "tap and count" more than play, and would rather listen to her play my favorite Disney songs than practice on my own. She always worked around my schedule. I was that child that never wanted to practice. But Ms. Andrea had a way with children. Whether it was playing an extra song at the end for me, or giving me an orange tic tac, she always made me feel really proud of myself.

She has taught me to be a great role model because that is what she is to me. Piano has taught me that once you start something, you have to finish it out. Ms. Andrea believed in me, and that made me believe in myself. Learning a musical instrument is something that I will value forever. She really made piano special and I will always associate the piano with her.

The reason we came to you was because Matt said to me one day, "Mom, we really need to find a really good jazz piano teacher." The piano tuner immediately mentioned you — he said you were an excellent jazz pianist but also an excellent teacher. There are many good jazz musicians out there but not many who can teach. Matt acquired a good base for further jazz studies and is now a senior, a music minor and math major. Robyn is working on the 2nd movement of Beethoven's Pastoral Sonata Op. 28. Lauren is in her second year at Duke and took some of her piano music with her — she must be playing just for fun.

Excellence! This is the only word I can use to sum up Ms. Marsavonian as a teacher and pianist.

When we paid her a visit, she played a few pieces for us — "shock and awe" I never expected. With every stroke, the notes she played demanded your attention; you forgot all your cares and were absolutely taken up into the moment.

Even though you know you're around a perfectionist, one whom not one little detail goes unnoticed, she is always behind you like your own personal cheerleader — rooting for you, pressing you forward, giving you uplifts of confidence. Between the hugs and the giggles, the rebukes, and all the love and magic she gives each lesson, it's no wonder my son never missed a lesson. Worth every penny — I have never regretted the investment. We are both better people for being graced by your presence. We miss you Andrea Marsavonian and love you dearly.
