Under Callaghan guidance I discovered how to convey true feeling through my violin. Rather than just hitting the right pitches she showed me to speak music especially in those slow romantic passages.

I was preparing for ABRSM Grade 5, and Callaghan played a key role in my progress. Her approach to scales was incredibly effective, and the sight-reading techniques she introduced made a big difference in my confidence and accuracy.

Callaghan has an eye for pinpointing areas that need improvement and turning them around. Her lesson pace is spot-on, and her feedback is always valuable.

Callaghan from Wrigleyville is a fun teacher who made the Piano lessons fun and easy. It changed my way of play style in the upright Piano. It's more easy than I thought and I am enjoy playing more than ever,
