Fun while learning with Whitfield was too good. In her piano classes I have laughed more than I will while watching a funny movie. Laughter is always the best medicine, ik but after Whitfield classes I got to know that it will help in learning also, that too an instrument like Piano. she taught me using various ways of approach and almost all of them worked for me. I am greatful to her for the piano classes.

I was looking for Piano classes which could help me prepare for the audition and during her piano lessons she corrected my mistakes in timing, and the other problems I would have faced during the audition. Ravenscroft in didn't let that happen. I am so greatful towards her and may god bless you to spread knowledge you have to others.

Playing correct notes is the extreme point in playing Piano. It'a enjoying and playing it wholeheartedly by your self. Kingsley Hall taught me that. It's not about "Getting the notes right' she always quotes. Each notes has her own properties and she guided me all the way till I did it right. Such a patient person.

This culture of support is evident in key local pillars:
- Bob Cole Conservatory of Music at CSULB: This is the heart of formal music education in the city, recognized for its exceptional programs that train the next generation of classical and jazz pianists on a wide range of keyboard instruments.
- Long Beach Symphony: As the city's professional orchestra, it not only brings grand piano concertos to life in magnificent concert halls but also plays a vital role in music education through its community outreach programs.

This eclectic soundscape provides endless inspiration for anyone learning to play the piano, demonstrating the instrument's vast potential.
