The lessons are provided at Sandoval. Ainsworth is a great piano teacher and keeping her for tutoring was a game changer for my son as she had a very good and efficient way of taking piano classes which helped my son grabbing all the classical and modern techniques at very fast rate.The lessons which were held was very fresh and exiting and my son enjoyed it a lot.

Preparing for college auditions felt less scary with Ainsworth guiding me in Troon North. She focuses on the smallest of things and guides you along and I am so grateful to have met Ainsworth !

My daughter started off nervous about piano, but Ainsworth in Spanos Park supported her every step. She recently completed her first recital and lit up the stage with confidence.

After relocating to Arden Arcade we felt so fortunate to discover Ainsworth . She is now working with both my daughters at her upright piano one is passionate about film scores while the other is really focused on Bach. Ainsworth knows exactly how to connect with each of them individually while still pushing them to grow.

My child was not well disciplined and not confident about learning piano. Then I found Calista Ainsworth in Sunset Square who changed everything for my daughter. Calista Ainsworth acted as a friend to my daughter and struck a harmony between fun and focused music study.
